Full Description


Set in peaceful countryside close to the historic towns of Duras and Monségur, this remarkable residence stands on the foundations of an ancient medieval castle and retains fascinating reminders of its defensive past, including its impressive moat.

Beyond the entrance gates, the property is surrounded by almost 1.2 hectares of mature grounds, with magnificent established trees creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting.

Offering approximately 335 m² of accommodation, the property combines impressive proportions with authentic period character. The substantial 32 m² solid-wood kitchen features a beautiful period fireplace, while the magnificent 90 m² reception room is a real highlight, with soaring ceilings, exposed timbers, a substantial stone fireplace and traditional terracotta flooring.

A second, more intimate sitting room retains an original bread oven and fireplace. The ground floor also includes a generous 30 m² bedroom, an office, shower room, separate WC and useful storage.

Upstairs, a striking 29.5 m² mezzanine overlooks the principal living space. There are four further bedrooms and a bathroom with WC, with period features throughout including exposed stonework, beams, fireplaces and decorative oak panelling. A 26 m² attic offers additional potential, subject to any necessary permissions.

Outside, the swimming pool is surrounded by terraces, including two covered areas ideal for summer dining and entertaining, one supported by substantial stone pillars. An ancient well provides another reminder of the property's long history.

Modern comforts include double glazing, wood-burning stoves, internet connection, an electric entrance gate and outdoor lighting.

A rare and captivating historic property combining the atmosphere and architectural character of a medieval residence with generous living space, beautiful mature grounds and a swimming pool.
