Description

Ref. PS1010 - For sale, this remarkable property stands as a testament to its meticulous high standard of renovation. Nestled in five hectares of land, this exquisite estate is a haven of tranquillity and privacy, offering breathtaking panoramic views that stretch as far as the eye can see.

At the heart of this estate is a seven-bedroom Chateau, originally constructed in the 1700s as the summer residence for the Bishop of Agen. The Chateau exudes grandeur with its wooden floorboards and stone floors, showcasing a rich history that has been lovingly preserved. The ground floor welcomes you with an impressive entrance hall, featuring a games room on one side and an opulent sitting room on the other. A flagstone floor hallway, adorned with a magnificent stone staircase, leads upstairs to the seven large double bedrooms, five of which boast their own en-suite bathrooms. High ceilings and tall windows flood the spaces with natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere that resonates throughout.

The expansive open-plan living area on the ground floor seamlessly combines dining and seating areas, with a kitchen under a handsome stone arch that overlooks and leads to the main pool area. Additional features on this floor include a sizable study and library with an open fireplace, a generous utility and laundry room, and a spacious cellar. The Chateau effortlessly blends historical charm with modern luxury, offering a living experience that is as comfortable as it is elegant.

Surrounding the Chateau, the outdoor area is a masterpiece of design and functionality. A substantial partially terraced courtyard envelops the main swimming pool (12m by 6m), providing an ideal setting for relaxation and entertainment. An old tobacco drying barn on the far side serves as an outside games area with a table tennis table and a shaded spot to unwind by the pool. Three two-bedroom gites and a gym, equipped with its own shower room, are perfectly positioned on the other side of the courtyard. The gites, have two separate pools and private terraces, offering flexible accommodation options, with two of them featuring a connecting door for larger groups. The fourth gite, a one-bedroom pigeonier, stands apart, boasting its own private terrace with captivating views.

Currently serving as both a holiday home for the owners and a luxurious holiday rental destination, the property is expertly designed to seamlessly continue this. The estate also has the potential to become a haven for retreats, large gatherings, events, or weddings, thanks to its ample space and diverse facilities. Four private terraces, three swimming pools, a small lake, and numerous secluded corners contribute to the property's splendid serenity.

Strategically located near charming bastide towns with restaurants, bars, and local markets, the property offers convenient access to amenities. Bergerac and its International airport are just over 30 minutes' drive away, while the larger city of Bordeaux is less than 2 hours away. This truly exceptional and luxurious property stands as a timeless blend of history, charm, and elegance.
