This exceptional 18th-century estate offers a seamless blend of historic charm, elegance, and modern comfort, making it ideal as a spacious family home or a versatile business opportunity. The main house features 8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, with a separate cottage providing 2 additional bedrooms, perfectly suited for guests or staff.

Set in a peaceful hamlet along the banks of the River Dordogne, this property, together with its charming guardian’s house dating back to circa 1790, the estate has been carefully renovated to preserve its period character while introducing refined modern comforts—making it an outstanding choice as a luxurious private residence, a thriving B&B, or a whole-house holiday rental.

Currently run successfully as both a seasonal rental and boutique B&B, the property demonstrates remarkable potential for those seeking not only an exquisite family home, but also an income-generating opportunity in one of France’s most sought-after regions.

Inside, the Manor showcases an abundance of original features: soaring ceilings, exposed beams, intricate stonework, impressive fireplaces, and marble floors that echo its grand past. Recent restorations include a contemporary, fully equipped kitchen and beautifully appointed bathrooms fitted with top-quality appliances and fixtures, blending tradition with modern-day elegance.

The estate unfolds across nearly 2 acres of mature landscaped grounds, shaded by centuries-old trees and designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A magnificent pool with a waterfall feature forms the centrepiece of the garden, accompanied by sun terraces and intimate seating areas scattered throughout the park. 

Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to two courses, including the prestigious 18-hole Château de Vigier.

Perfectly situated on the edge of a picturesque village along the River Dordogne, the property enjoys the best of both tranquility and convenience.

Just across the river lies the vibrant bastide town of Sainte-Foy-la-Grande, renowned for its bustling Saturday market attracting visitors from across the region. For ease of travel, the town also offers a train station with direct connections to Bordeaux, Bergerac, and beyond.

Bergerac, with its historic centre, excellent restaurants, and airport offering year-round flights, is just over 25 minutes away. Bordeaux—the dynamic capital of the region, famed for its history, culture, shopping, and world-class wine—is approximately one hour’s drive, with its international airport also easily accessible. Closer still, the UNESCO World Heritage village of Saint-Émilion can be reached in around 40 minutes, while the Atlantic coast near Arcachon is a leisurely drive of around 1 hour 40 minutes.
