Juanita Franke Independent Agent, says :
A long private drive leads to this impressive property comprising of the main house and several outbuildings is surrounded by 5 ha of garden and meadow. It is situated on the edge of a small hamlet and close to a village with all amenities. Of the 5 ha 1.5 ha are in the constructable zone.
Parts of the property date back to the 11th century so the owner assures me. The main house offers about 200m² of living accommodation. Attached to it is a square tower where restoration works have been started. Still attached to his is a large barn of about 120m² floor space. A round tower with a stone tiled roof and opposite a further smaller barn with 30m² floor space.
There are lots of beautiful features as the fountain on the front terrace of the house with its many flowering shrubs, magnificent old trees and best of all the fantastic long view.
You enter the house by the 18m² entrance hall which leads into a large fully fitted kitchen of 30m² with fireplace. From there you reach the 55m² living room with its beautiful fireplace. In a side wing of the house reached from the entrance hall is a bedroom, bathroom and separate toilet. A beautiful elm staircase leads from the living room to the first floor with 2 small bedrooms of about 7m² each and the master bedroom of 25m² with access to the terrace. There is a spacious bathroom (10m²) with jacuzzi style bathtub, shower, 2 wash basins and toilet. The bedroom has a dressing room with a door leading into the adjacent square tower were renovation work has started.
This tower comprises of a 14m² room leading to a further 17m² room with its attic above.
There are many outbuildings used as utility rooms, garages and storage space offering a lot of potential.
This incredible property full of character is within easy reach of a medieval village full of history: witness the narrow streets winding up to the 12th-century bell tower-keep, the beauty of its age-old rooftops. But there are also plenty of restaurants, bars, shops, supermarket, doctors, bank, school, a wonderful weekly market and night market in the summer.
The medieval market town of Sarlat is at 21km and Bergerac airport is at 58 km.

The Dordogne is France's third largest department, and as well as numerous picturesque villages, it also boasts an incredible 4,000 chateaux, 10% of all the chateaux in France. Many people, including many expatriates,
feel that the Dordogne is one of the most beautiful regions of France.
The Dordogne has traditionally been one of the most popular department for foreign buyers, including many British,
Irish and Dutch home owners. Like many French departments, the Dordogne is named after the river that flows through it. Foie gras, duck and goose are regional specialities.
The department has four distinct territories. In the north you will find 'Green Périgord' which derives its name from its many green valleys and woodland, covered with trickling
streams, and houses the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park. The major towns in the area are Brantome (the "Venice" of the Dordogne), Nontron and Riberac.
In the centre
of the department is 'White Périgord', so called because of its limestone plateaux. It contains the capital of the Dordogne, Périgueux, with attractive shopping centre and marvellous
winding old town.
The 'Purple Périgord', in the South West of the department, is named from the area's grapes, which are put to good use in Bergerac, the capital of this wine
producing region. The area was of great strategic significance during the hundred years war, and visitors will find a number of fortified villages, castles and chateaux built by both
the English and the French here.
In the south-east you'll find 'Black Périgord', with deep valleys and ancient forests. It contains the towns of Saint-Cyprien and Sarlat-la-Caneda,
which are both popular with foreign buyers. It houses numerous prehistoric caves with some 30,000 year old cave paintings.
Nearest international airports are Limoges, Bergerac
and Bordeaux with regular flights back to the UK, and the department has good motorway and TGV access.
