Rare 16th century property with swimming pool, gardens and 13 hectares - Lot countryside
Tucked away in the heart of the countryside, this rare 16th-century property offers a unique blend of historic charm, luxurious living, and exceptional outdoor space. Set within approximately 13 hectares of land, it’s an ideal retreat for nature lovers, creatives, or equestrian buyers seeking peace, privacy, and potential.
The main house (which includes 4 bedrooms) has been beautifully renovated using traditional materials, retaining the authentic character of its origins while offering comfort and elegance throughout. Thick stone walls, exposed beams, and original features sit alongside modern upgrades, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. There's even a stylish summer kitchen, and a home cinema.
A large, restored stone barn offers remarkable space, ideal for a car collection. With a two bedroom self contained apartment below, as well as a number of storage rooms. Additional outbuildings include a well-equipped gym with shower room, a larger hanger, and a barn.
The gardens are truly exceptional, a haven of colour and calm, carefully designed and maintained. At their heart lies a striking granite swimming pool offering a luxurious spot to relax and unwind.
The property is equestrian-ready, with gently rolling pasture, a riding arena, and a stream running through the land. There’s ample space to create stables or further develop equestrian facilities if desired.
Despite the tranquil setting, the property is not isolated. Local amenities, markets, and the beautiful villages of the Lot are within easy reach.
A space with landing lights has been created for landing a helicopter
Whether you're looking for a family home, a holiday retreat, or a lifestyle project, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly remarkable piece of French history.

Opening Hours
Tuesday to Friday 10am - 4.30pmDiscuss an Offer
If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
