Description

Those who love good food, local markets, wine tasting, hiking, cycling, kayaking and golf have found their dream destination. In the middle of the wine region, 80 kilometres from Bordeaux and 25 kilometres from Saint-Emilion, on a hill surrounded by vineyards and enclosed by an 8-hectare forest, is this beautiful property on about 1.5 hectares. An idyllic country road gives access to the houses, around which deer come to play hide-and-seek every day. Completely secluded from the outside world, yet only 3.5 km from Pellegrue, a highly charming village with all amenities. Nearby: a fresh market every day, many classical concerts, a renowned jazz festival and even surprisingly good cinemas - not to be bored for a moment.

This beautiful 19th-century stone barn is a Valhalla of peace, luxury and tranquillity. Next to the property is a Romanesque church, so no building will be allowed within a one-kilometre radius. The stylish, concrete terraces, some of which are covered, offer an exceptional panorama. What a place to enjoy the pool and the surroundings at the end of the day, with a fine wine in hand. Welcome to holiday mode!

The main house (420 m2) and outbuilding (120 m2) are separated by the blissful 17 x 5-metre pool. Main building: central loft area with sitting pit, library and views of lily pond, terrace and water channel with fish. Adjoining this are the kitchen, dining and sitting area with fireplace and a spacious covered terrace with pool view. From the generous bedroom with bathroom at +1 you can easily make more. Annexe with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and nice living room with garden view.

Mainly Belgian firms were responsible for the high quality renovation with insulation, water purification system, heat pumps, air conditioning, double aluminium glazing (Baku), new roofs, electricity, sanitary pipes... Many natural materials such as limestone, lime paint and parquet.

Both house and swimming pool (south-facing) are constantly bathed in sunshine. At the same time, thanks to air conditioning, smart blinds and smaller windows in strategic places, the temperature inside is always pleasant. Preferably, this property will be sold with its entire contents.

owner speaks out

For 22 years I have been coming to this wonderful place, in all seasons. I live in the big house and it's great that my children and grandchildren can effortlessly stay in the annex. So during the holidays, we always enjoy being together intensely. The region is quiet and yet very interesting, with many beautiful towns, castles and domains to visit. A dream for nature and culture lovers who appreciate their peace and quiet. Social contacts are also delightful and human, a true paradise. The seasons are pretty much the same as in Belgium, except that it stays warmer here for longer and spring starts earlier. So from mid-March to mid-November you can enjoy the wonderful outdoors here to the full. We started the renovations in 2005-2006, and completed them in 2018 with the reconstruction of the terraces. Interesting to know for potential buyers: during the holidays, I rent out the domain at 4,000 euros a week. My wonderful memories I take with me forever.
