Sarlat La Canéda (24200)

In immediate proximity to Sarlat. Some places transcend time, managing to preserve the best of it. Character and authenticity of yesteryear, charm and elegance, calm and serenity. This is the case here, in a property remodeled in the 17th century, which was once the summer residence of the bishops of Sarlat. Enhanced with features allowing for more contemporary comfort, it has retained its assets, both interior and exterior, which contribute to its character, history, and unique atmosphere. Fireplaces, beams, stone sinks, terracotta floors, slate roofs, dormer windows, wooden interior shutters, outbuildings, stone walls, and stairs... The vegetation itself, beautifully arranged, leaves an imprint in total harmony, adding a touch that further enhances the places.
The main house offers spacious areas on the ground floor, a separate kitchen opening onto the landscaped inner courtyard, the ornamental garden with the pool area, or the living room. Equipped with its fireplace and a wood stove, it also includes a fully equipped kitchen. A living room with its fireplace as well, and direct access to the garden and the infinity pool. A library space is also present, as well as a bathroom, particularly useful for the outdoors. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, including a master suite.
A guest house, also overlooking the tree-lined entrance courtyard, is particularly pleasant and allows for either tourist rental and income, for a total of 4 sleeping spaces, or a reception area for family and friends, or even an office or artist’s studio, for ideal calm and inspiration. The other outbuildings, attic, garage, boiler room, and other storage spaces, give the place this charming spirit, with stone and slate, decorated with virgin vines and other plantings contrasting with the traditional and renowned yellow stones of Sarlat. The buildings are ideally placed for perfect intimacy and breathing space, with enough outdoor areas around them to enjoy nature, the view, and multiple sunny terraces depending on the time of day, while knowing that a large part of the 5.9 hectares consists of woods where walks, paths, and mushrooms reign.
Beyond its undeniable architectural quality, this property allows lovers of beautiful stones and bygone atmospheres to find a unique atmosphere, present in homes that have managed to remain true to their history and true authenticity. If this is what you love and seek, this house will surely captivate you.
