Fabulous west Dordogne property with pool and views for sale
Vélines, Dordogne (24)
€1,265,000
Reference: KM1107
Constructed predominantly in the 16th and 17th centuries, with 18th-century additions and modifications, particularly evident in doorways and window openings, this property comprises the main house, crafted from stone, forming a courtyard with two additional stone buildings—the garage and bergerie. The bergerie has been subdivided into a tool shed and pool house, offering a shaded area for poolside dining. Adjacent to an orchard boasting both young and mature fruit trees, there lies a second house, known as The Priory, connected to an extensive barn that once served as a winery. The ensemble also features an underground wine cellar, and a video showcasing the property is available upon request.
A noteworthy feature on the premises is an efficient well equipped with an electric pump for irrigating the garden and replenishing the pool. The former Priory comprises a basement, accessed by a perron leading to a spacious living area on the first floor with a tiled floor. While this area has undergone roof replacement and certain structural enhancements, considerable renovation is needed before considering it habitable, subject to requisite planning consent.
The garden exhibits diverse facets, providing numerous options for outdoor dining or sitting areas. Abundant mature trees, expansive lawns, and a terrace on the north side with a valley view contribute to a private, tranquil atmosphere with a touch of magic. The total land encompasses approximately 1.23 hectares (3 acres).
Main House:
Carefully and tastefully updated, this property seamlessly combines modern comfort with the timeless charm of its origins. Downstairs, three spacious main rooms are complemented by an entrance hall in the tower, a laundry room, a scullery, and a guest cloakroom. The live-in kitchen/breakfast room features both an Aga and a La Cornue cooker, while the bathrooms showcase high-quality Lefroy Brooks fittings and an open fireplace.
The double-aspect sitting room opens with French windows and boasts a large fireplace housing a wood-burning stove, leading to a library/music room or dining room.
Upstairs, four main double bedrooms and a tower room, accessible via a ladder to an upper level, offer versatile spaces. The master bedroom includes a full ensuite shower room and dressing room, while two other bedrooms feature ensuite shower rooms, and the fourth bedroom has an adjoining bathroom with a separate W.C.
