Full Description
Nestled between Bergerac and Saint-Émilion, this exceptional country estate combines historic charm and modern elegance in an idyllic setting just one hour from Bordeaux.
Set in an elevated position with sweeping views over the valley and rolling hills, the property offers complete privacy and timeless beauty in the heart of the countryside.
Accessed via picturesque country roads lined with vineyards, the approach sets the tone for what awaits beyond the elegant wrought-iron gates.
The estate is a harmonious blend of 17th- and 18th-century architecture and contemporary design, with graceful towers that enhance the property’s grandeur and showcase the magnificent landscape.
Inside, a grand entrance hall opens directly into a spacious south-facing lounge, bathed in natural light and framing spectacular countryside views. Large French doors lead onto a vast sun terrace and swimming pool — the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxing under the southern sun.
To the left, a beautiful dining room and country-style kitchen both enjoy the same wonderful outlook, opening onto a second terrace and a west-facing courtyard garden.
This wing also features a laundry room and two ensuite ground-floor bedrooms, one currently used as a gym.
On the opposite side, the light-filled conservatory connects to the first tower, which houses an ensuite bedroom upstairs with a private balcony — an intimate spot to enjoy morning coffee or sunset views.
Beyond the main lounge, two further ground-floor bedrooms each have their own bathroom and WC, complemented by a sauna for complete relaxation. A cosy sitting room with a fireplace, currently used as an office, leads up to another elegant ensuite bedroom.
At the far end of the house, the second tower features an independent ensuite bedroom with kitchenette and private balcony, ideal for guests or as a self-contained suite. This space benefits from a separate entrance while remaining connected to the main residence.
A charming pigeonnier guest house offers further accommodation with a kitchen, bedroom, and shower room, while an art studio set within its own private garden provides a peaceful retreat with inspiring views.
Several outbuildings complete the property, including a garage, pigsty, barn, wine cellar, and stables — ideal for equestrian pursuits or creative projects.
The south-facing pool terrace is perfect for enjoying sunny days and long summer evenings, surrounded by beautiful landscaped grounds and open fields. The extensive land offers opportunities for horse riding, gardening, or simply appreciating the tranquillity of nature.
This unique prestige property near Bordeaux is ideal as a luxury family home, holiday retreat, or high-end rental investment (subject to authorisations). Perfectly positioned for access to Bergerac Airport, Saint-Émilion’s world-famous vineyards, and excellent local restaurants, it captures the very best of French country living with elegance, space, and charm.
A rare opportunity to own an exceptional estate in South West France — just one hour from Bordeaux.
