A charming stone property with potential to increase living space by converting both barns. Ideal as a holiday home or permanent residence.

Situated at the end of a short track, off a meandering country lane, surrounded by vineyards, this is an ideal location for a holiday home or permanent residence. You will never tire of the stunning views nor the opportunity to sample the various local wines. The prestigious Chateau de Vigiers golf course is only 10km away and the historic town of Sainte-Foy-la-Grande situated on the beautiful Dordogne river with its famous market, extensive commerce, riverside beach and train connection to Bordeaux and Sarlat is only 12km away. Duras with its historic castle and commerce is 15 minutes drive. The beautiful medieval town of Eymet with all its commerce, schools and weekly markets is 25 minutes away, whilst the thriving town of Bergerac with its international airport is 35 minutes away.

This property is secluded, yet not isolated. There are a handful of near neighbours along the track, but upon entering the expansive garden you are greeted by stunning, uninterrupted views of the scenic countryside and a distant hilltop Chateau. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate the location. The house is all on one level and most rooms have direct access onto the garden. The large barns could provide additional living space for extended families or indeed self-contained gites.
