Exceptional Stone Property with Rich History and Panoramic Views of Bonaguil Castle

Property Description

EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! Nestled in a privileged and completely private setting in the Lot, this exceptional stone property enjoys a truly unique location with breathtaking panoramic views over the iconic Château de Bonaguil. A rare opportunity to acquire a traditional French estate combining historic charm, generous living space, privacy and outstanding outdoor surroundings.

Cultural Legacy and Royal Visitors: In the 1960s the property was owned by Raymond Gallois-Montbrun, composer and Director of the Paris Conservatory. The estate hosted distinguished guests, including members of the Danish Royal Family and the Russian Ambassador's wife.

Historic Architecture: The main house features a 1826 stone carving above the doorway, with original stones believed to originate from the nearby 13th-century Château de Bonaguil following the French Revolution.

The Accommodation and Grounds:
The property comprises three separate buildings: a main house and two additional stone buildings (including a self-contained cottage originally built for music students), offering a total of approximately 256m² of living accommodation. Full of character, the estate beautifully reflects the authenticity of the region with traditional stone architecture, spacious rooms, and the timeless appeal of a French countryside home.

Set within approximately 3.1 hectares (31,040 m²) of land, the property benefits from complete tranquillity and privacy, with no overlooking neighbours. The grounds offer a wonderful sense of space, surrounded by nature and providing numerous possibilities for gardens, leisure areas, or further projects. The property is surrounded by mature, shade-providing trees, including beautiful old truffle oaks. The grounds are also home to several productive fruit trees, including plum, apple, fig and hazelnut trees.

The main house provides comfortable and versatile living spaces, while the two additional buildings offer excellent potential for guest accommodation, workshops, creative spaces, or additional living areas, depending on your needs.

The exterior spaces are equally impressive, featuring a magnificent 14m x 7m swimming pool built over a natural pond, perfectly positioned to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and spectacular views of Bonaguil castle from the covered veranda. A private well on the property adds to the authenticity and practicality of this exceptional estate.

Whether as a permanent residence, a family retreat, or a high-end holiday home, this unique property offers a rare combination of rich heritage, privacy and natural beauty. Its commanding position opposite one of France’s most beautiful medieval castles makes it a truly special place to call home.

A remarkable French stone estate offering history, space and an unparalleled view.
