A Partly Restored 18th Century Dwelling And 16th Century Lodge Surrounding Their Courtyard, Set

A partly restored 18th-century dwelling and 16th-century lodge surrounding their courtyard, set in grounds of around 4 ha with swimming pool, spring and stream in Lot-et-Garonne. The property forms a group of buildings including a rectangular manor house centred on its inner courtyard, surrounded by grounds of approx. 4 ha comprising mixed woodland, meadows and a small valley, and featuring a renowned spring. Beyond the boundaries of the estate, the surroundings might seem rather unattractive to some - given the presence of greenhouses and farm buildings. However, these structures are forgotten as soon as you follow a long driveway lined with majestic umbrella pines and enter the heart of the property.

Built over the course of several centuries, the dwelling is made up of a number of different sections and interconnected inside and out.

The dressed stone building is predominantly one storey high, with one section comprising two upper floors above a garden level. It includes an 18th century main building, a 16th century lodge and a former winery, following on from one another harmoniously. They are arranged around an enclosed courtyard with a central well, which is accessed from the outside via a porch.

While the residence has undergone many alterations since at least the 16th century, it has recently been partially restored to continue its long history. All the buildings have been re-roofed: the 18th-century dwelling with slate and monk-and-nun tiles, the 16th-century pavilion with flat tiles and the winery with monk-and-nun tiles. In addition, a new micro wastewater treatment plant, a drainage system around the buildings, a new mains drinking water supply and electrical wiring up to the entrance to the property have been installed. Finally, the surrounding area has also been cleaned up.
