Character stone property with independent gîte, swimming pool, events barn and extensive outbuildings near Bonaguil
Set in the beautiful countryside of northern Lot-et-Garonne, close to the borders of the Lot and Dordogne, this substantial stone property offers an unusual combination of character, space and versatility, with approximately 366 m² of residential accommodation divided between a principal house and an independent gîte, together providing eight bedrooms.
The principal house offers approximately 240 m² of accommodation and is currently configured to combine comfortable family living with chambres d’hôtes. It includes generous reception and dining areas, five bedrooms and several bathrooms and shower rooms. One bedroom with its own shower room and dressing room is situated on the ground floor, while four further bedrooms and additional bathroom facilities occupy the first floor. A utility room, pantry, boiler room, cellar and attic provide valuable practical and storage space.
The house retains much of the character expected of a traditional French country property, with substantial exposed timbers, stonework and fireplaces. The interiors are welcoming and relaxed, with generous proportions and plenty of natural light, creating a home that works just as well for everyday life as it does for receiving guests.
Separate from the principal house, the independent gîte provides approximately 126 m² of additional accommodation. Arranged with three bedrooms, two shower rooms and its own living, dining and kitchen space, together with a workshop and cellar, it offers genuine independence and privacy for holiday guests, friends or extended family.
Outside, the buildings sit within established gardens where mature trees, hedging and colourful planting create a wonderfully green and private environment. The swimming pool occupies its own sheltered area, surrounded by generous terraces and complemented by a covered seating area for shade during the warmer months. There is ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining as well as quieter corners from which to enjoy the surroundings.
One of the property's most distinctive features is its former tobacco-drying barn. The impressive original timber structure has been retained and the interior adapted to create a substantial performance and events space, currently arranged with a stage and theatrical equipment. It presents an exciting opportunity for performances, workshops, exhibitions, courses, retreats, seminars or private events.
An extensive collection of additional buildings adds another dimension to the property, including a stone barn, summer kitchen, two former houses, covered areas, hangars, a chai and former stable. These provide considerable space for workshops, storage, vehicles and hobbies, while some may offer scope for further projects or alternative uses, subject to the necessary permissions.
The overall configuration makes the property particularly adaptable. It could continue as a chambres d’hôtes and gîte activity, develop further around events, courses or retreats, or become a substantial private country home. The independent accommodation also makes it an interesting option for multigenerational living, allowing family and guests to stay for extended periods while retaining their own space.
The setting combines rural life with good access to the necessities of everyday living. Fumel and Monsempron-Libos provide shops, supermarkets and services, while the property's position close to three departments — Lot-et-Garonne, Lot and Dordogne — opens up a particularly rich area to explore. The impressive Château de Bonaguil is nearby, with bastide villages, traditional markets, vineyards, walking and cycling routes and the river valleys of southwest France all forming part of the surrounding lifestyle.
For those travelling from further afield, Bergerac Dordogne Périgord Airport is the closest regional airport, while Toulouse-Blagnac and Bordeaux-Mérignac provide a broader choice of national and international connections.
Above all, this is a property with the space and flexibility to evolve with its next owners — whether as a generous family home, a place to welcome guests, a hospitality venture, a creative or events project, or a combination of several of these.
