Description
In the heart of the preserved countryside of Périgord, this elegant stone property tells a story spanning several centuries. Once a 17th-century farmhouse historically attached to the neighbouring château estate, the residence has been entirely renovated with exceptional care, preserving its architectural authenticity while incorporating a remarkable level of modern comfort.
Behind its warm limestone façades, showcasing traditional “colombages” walls and regional roofs, the property offers approximately 380 m² (4,090 sq ft) of living space set within a beautifully landscaped park of around 5,000 m² (1.2 acres). The atmosphere is both welcoming and refined, where raw materials - exposed beams, fireplaces and stone walls - blend harmoniously with modern installations designed for long-term comfort.
Living areas open generously onto the gardens and terraces, allowing natural light to fill the interiors throughout the day. This home offers 12 rooms including 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating family and guests. A fully equipped kitchen with pantry connects to a pleasantly shaded terrace, while a second kitchen-laundry area enhances the practicality of the property, particularly well-suited to a large family home or hospitality project.
Upstairs, the layout provides excellent flexibility with a reading area opening onto a charming balcony, independent bedrooms and shower rooms, as well as comfortable suites. Part of the property benefits from a separate entrance, allowing for the creation of a guest cottage or independent apartment: a valuable feature for a tourism venture or multi-generational living.
Energy efficiency has been thoughtfully addressed during the renovation, incorporating double glazing, a central pellet-fuel heating system and underfloor heating, achieving a DPE C energy rating, a notable performance for a historic property of this age.
Outside, the landscaped grounds combine lawns, planted borders and numerous fruit trees, creating a peaceful and natural setting. The 13 x 6 metre saltwater swimming pool, with stone terrace surroundings, offers an inviting space for relaxation and outdoor entertaining during the warmer months.
The property also benefits from an autonomous irrigation system supplied by a 4,000-litre well, complemented by additional rainwater collectors and connected to a lift pump for watering the vegetable garden and green spaces.
Ideally located just 5 minutes from the historic bastide town of Vergt, the property enjoys immediate access to everyday amenities while maintaining a tranquil rural setting. It is perfectly positioned between Périgueux and Bergerac, whose international airport can be reached in approximately 30 minutes. Leisure enthusiasts will also appreciate the proximity of Golf de la Marterie, only 15 minutes away, as well as a private equestrian centre located nearby.
Finally, the property is located within a protected planning zone, ensuring a naturally preserved environment with no future urban densification likely to disturb the property's privacy and surrounding landscape.
