Summary
Located only a few kilometres from a Bastide Town, and yet discreetly tucked away at the end of a private driveway extending some 600m, many locals don't even know this delightful domaine exists! Set around a courtyard, it offers seven bedrooms including a totally self-contained Guest Wing. Although surrounded on all sides by magnificent trees, it is light and airy throughout, and has stunning views thanks to its elevated position - including over one of its two lakes from the south-facing kitchen terrace.
In addition to the lakes, the land comprises well-cared for gardens that enclose the chateau, with woods, meadows and orchards to its flanks. There are great recreational facilities - a swimming pool (with kids end), tennis court, carp and black bass fishing, as well as plenty of land.

SWIMMING POOL 15m x 6m
Located just to the side of the chateau, the pool is equipped with a hard cover, and has a great kids end - shallow and bounded by a small underwater wall. It has steps leading from the kids area into the main pool. |
CARP LAKE
Not only does this pretty lake provide a great view from the kitchen terrace, it is teaming with carp - great for those budding fishermen. Hidden in the woods is another lake, smaller in size but deep, where black bass can be found. |
DRIVEWAY 600 m
Although straight, the 600m driveway is so long that it hides the treasure that lies at its end. Lined with hundred of red plum trees, it provides a wealth of colour for much of the year. |
OLD CHAPEL
Flanking the long driveway, this old chapel gives a hint of what lies ahead. For those romantics out there, it could convert into a wonderful little folly. |
REAR DRIVEWAY & ORCHARD
The rear driveway leads to the tennis court, through the orchard brimming with fruit trees and wild orchids. |
COACH HOUSE
Although now used only as storage, the Coach House could equally convert into another guest house / guardian's cottage - or indeed revert to its original use as stable block and coach house. The building is served by electricity. |
STABLES 7.73m (25'4") x 5.06m (16'7")
Window to front, window to rear, original hay mangers. Concrete Floor, double door to: |
COACH ROOM 7.70m (25'3") x 4.65m (15'3")
Window to front, two windows to side, window to rear, Suspended wooden floor over storage room below, two doors. |
GARDEN
The garden has been planted with all manner of rare trees, flowers and shrubs, ensuring all-round colour and foliage, and privacy. Moreover, we are lead to believe that there is an irrigation system that supplies the garden with water from the lower lake – but we are advised that the power to the pump house needs to be reinstated. |
