5-Bed Farmhouse with Attached Barn, Brantome, Dordogne

Property Description

This beautiful 5-bed farmhouse has simply beautiful gardens to enjoy during the summer, and lovely cosy living spaces to enjoy during the winter.  Situated within walking distance of a thriving, historic riverside village, Brantôme and close to the river Dronne, there is plenty to explore as well lots of local restaurants to sample and watersports to enjoy. 

The picturesque house has no shortage of character- a large impressive fireplace in the sitting room and wooden beams feature throughout.  The house is adjoined by an equally attractive stone built barn, which obviously opens up the possibility of extending the living space (subject to planning of course).  For now, it is a great area for storage or perhaps a workshop and there are a number of other outbuildings that feature on the plot.

There’s currently 135m2 habitable space.  Here’s the layout:

The house is approached by a gated entrance and the 3/4 acre fenced gardens feature a pond, orchard, sun terrace and a lovely 8x4m swimming pool in a sheltered, walled area of the garden.

The location offers the best of both worlds.  Situated in a quiet hamlet, the house also has good access to amenities as there is a thriving riverside village within walking distance, and the wonderful market towns of Brantôme and Perigueux are both close by.  Bergerac airport is just over an hours’ drive.
