An exceptional opportunity to acquire a classic Victorian style property on the outskirts of Bergerac. The manor house has large comfortable reception rooms and bedrooms, with excellent natural light and wonderful original features. The rooms afford generous views out to the garden and parkland. Some redecoration is required, and some purchasers may wish to install an additional bathroom, but such works would be minor.
The ground floor of the manor house comprises an entrance hall, drawing room, dining room, sitting room and two kitchens. There are six bedrooms and three bathrooms on the first floor, and a further four bedrooms and and one bathroom on the top floor. There is excellent flexibility to use the house wholly as a family home, or partly as chambres d'hote. The current owners let the house in summer, at a peak season rental of €4,750 per week.
There is a two storey guest house with three bedrooms, a beautiful stone barn which could be renovated, and a large building for tractors and equipment. The land extends to 33 hectares (82 acres), principally rolling pasture with some woods. There are truly magnificent hardwood trees in the park, and glorious views over hills and dales. The property affords a wonderful family home with extensive land for equestrian and sporting pursuits.
