In the heart of the Cognac vineyards, just a few kilometres from Cognac itself and surrounded by endless rows of vines, this characterful Maison de Maître is set within an open, light-filled and deeply authentic environment. Here, the landscape is not only admired—it is truly felt, shaped by the atmosphere of the cellars, the harvest season and this emblematic terroir, where the air seems infused with wine and Cognac.
More than a property, this is a genuine heritage project, intended for a discerning buyer seeking authenticity, space and long-term value creation.
Set on approximately 3.7 hectares of land, the estate is composed of a substantial built ensemble organised around two central courtyards, offering a clear and harmonious layout.
The property includes three separate dwellings:
a spacious Maison de Maître with generous volumes (approx. 640 m², 6 bedrooms), with classic architectural elegance
an apartment
a single-storey house, entirely to renovate, offering additional potential (independent accommodation, gîte, guest house or caretaker’s home)
The estate is further complemented by numerous outbuildings typical of the region’s viticultural heritage:
several open barns arranged around the main courtyard
a closed barn
a former distillery
a large wine storehouse (chai), with remarkable volumes and multiple possibilities for conversion or use.
The property enjoys a privileged position, entirely surrounded by vineyards, offering open views and total immersion in one of France’s most renowned terroirs. The distinctive light of the Charente, the gentle rolling landscape and the ever-present wine-making atmosphere give the estate a rare sensory identity.
The ensemble requires significant renovation, offering the future owner the opportunity to reimagine the estate according to their aspirations—whether as a prestigious private residence, a multi-generational family home, a high-end hospitality project (guest rooms), or a combination of residence and activity. This transformation represents a true value-creation opportunity, in a market where estates of this scale, steeped in history and located at the heart of the vineyards, have become extremely rare.
This property will appeal to a knowledgeable buyer with a sensitivity for historic stone buildings, generous volumes, the logic of courtyards and outbuildings, and the strong identity of the place—wishing to anchor a long-term project in one of the most emblematic terroirs of Western France.
The Cognac region is renowned worldwide for its exceptional terroir, refined lifestyle and rich heritage. With its vineyards, historic towns and renowned gastronomy, it offers an authentic yet highly desirable setting. Excellent accessibility to the Atlantic coast and major transport links further enhances its appeal.
