Hilltop Property with Pool, Gîte & Panoramic Views

Property Description

Occupying a exceptional ridge-top position at the end of a quiet lane in a small hamlet, this remarkable property enjoys complete privacy and breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding valley and towards the village below.
Set within approximately 8 hectares of land, the property comprises a spacious four-bedroom main house, a beautifully maintained independent three-bedroom gîte, a separate garage building, a swimming pool and extensive woodland. Around the houses, the land is mainly level, while the surrounding forest creates a wonderful sense of space, tranquillity and freedom.
Despite its peaceful setting, everyday amenities are close at hand. A local grocery shop with fresh bread is just a few minutes away, while the lively village of Catus, with its shops, restaurants and supermarket, can be reached in less than ten minutes. The historic town of Cahors, offering a full range of services including a hospital and railway station, is only twenty minutes away. Access to the A20 motorway is within fifteen minutes.
The main house, built in the early 1970s and exceptionally well maintained throughout, offers a comfortable and practical layout. The ground floor comprises a bright living room, a fitted kitchen, a utility/laundry room, a spacious bedroom with air conditioning and en-suite bathroom, and an entrance hall with cloakroom and guest WC, allowing for comfortable single-level living if desired.
Both the living room and kitchen open onto the sun-filled veranda, undoubtedly one of the highlights of the property. Bathed in natural light throughout the year, it provides the perfect setting from which to enjoy the magnificent views in every season.
The first floor offers three further generous bedrooms and a family bathroom. Storage space is abundant, thanks to numerous built-in cupboards throughout the house.
Year-round comfort is ensured by double glazing, a recently installed pellet-fired central heating system and a Polyflam wood-burning fireplace. Several terraces surround the house, providing ideal places to relax, entertain or simply take in the spectacular scenery at any time of day.
The second house, currently operated as a gîte, has been tastefully finished and is ready to welcome guests from day one. The ground floor comprises a spacious kitchen, a cosy sitting/dining room with inset wood-burning stove, a bedroom with bathroom and a separate toilet. To the front of the property, a partly covered terrace offers an attractive outdoor living area.
Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. An adjoining attic provides further potential for conversion, should additional accommodation be required.
At garden level, this house benefits from approximately 100 m2 of cellars, storage rooms and workshop space. Heating is provided by an oil-fired central heating system.
A separate outbuilding houses the pellet silo, the heating installation for the main house, a workshop and a garage. The pellet boiler has been generously sized, making it possible to connect the gîte to the system in the future.
The 10 x 5 metre swimming pool, fitted with a telescopic cover, is easily accessible from both the main house and the gîte, making it ideal for both private use and guest accommodation.
Panoramic views, 8 hectares of land, a spacious and light-filled family home, an independent gîte, a swimming pool and an exceptional natural setting combine to create a property rarely found on today's market.
Whether you are seeking a permanent residence, a family retreat, a multi-generational home or a property with established rental potential, this remarkable property offers a wealth of possibilities.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, tranquillity and exceptional views offered by this unique property.
