Historical Manoir with Guest House, Pigeonnier and Pools

Property Description

EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! An exceptional country estate combining history, elegance and versatility, this former residence, believed to have been built for one of Napoleon’s generals, offers a unique opportunity to enjoy refined living or the potential to develop a boutique hospitality or events venture in an idyllic setting just moments from Bergerac and its international airport.

Set in just under three hectares of landscaped grounds, the estate enjoys a peaceful village setting with excellent access to the Dordogne countryside. The property comprises a main manoir, a substantial second house, a restored pigeonnier with independent accommodation, several outbuildings and a superb infinity swimming pool with separate smaller pool below.

The manoir, offering four bedrooms across three floors, has been carefully renovated to retain its original character while providing modern comfort. The ground floor features a spacious and light-filled living area, where a fitted kitchen with granite worktops and central island flows into the lounge and dining space. French doors open onto terraces on both sides, creating a seamless connection with the outdoors.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms each benefit from ensuite bathrooms, while the top floor offers two further bedrooms and a family bathroom, with air conditioning for added comfort.

The second house provides generous independent accommodation, with a striking living room featuring a cathedral ceiling and wood-burning stove, opening into a kitchen and dining area. It also includes a ground floor bedroom and bathroom, with two further bedrooms and bathrooms on the mezzanine level, making it ideal for guests or rental use (subject to the necessary permissions).

The restored pigeonnier offers additional independent living space, with an open-plan kitchen and living area, shower room, and an upstairs bedroom opening onto a private rooftop terrace.

The grounds include various fruit trees, paddock, open fields and a secluded garden with fountain, along with terraces designed for outdoor living. A covered dining area near the pool creates a perfect setting for entertaining, overlooking the pool area.

Outbuildings include a large barn and additional storage, offering further potential, while a water recovery system supports garden irrigation.

This is a rare and elegant property offering both lifestyle appeal and commercial potential in a highly desirable location close to Bergerac.
