Castle whose ancient foundations formed by the beautiful vaulted rooms contrast with an elegant facade inspired by the Palladio Villas. Its adjoining park of more than 2 hectares facing south, offers a life in isolation from the first neighbors. The 400sqm of the property are on a human scale and on 3 levels; the ground floor is mainly made up of vaulted rooms used as a living room, lounge and office; all these rooms are open onto the park and the peristyle. On the first floor, a living room makes the difference thanks to a triple exposure, opened on a shaded terrace which overhangs a large meadow where the Dordogne river meanders with a view on the Orgues; to complete this level, one can count on a number of comfortable rooms with a not negligible quantity of water point which lets easily imagine modernization works. Note that the building is equipped with central heating. The top floor is fitted out and offers more open spaces; one can count on outbuildings nearby. The property, although in good condition, needs modernization; its location on the border between Cantal and Corrèze opens the doors of the Mars and Maronne valleys and remains located 10min from Bort les Orgues and the amenities. This property is for sale again and each visit will be studied after the buyers have been informed about the financing capacities to buy and to renovate the property. It should be noted that there are options to complete the offer on both the land and the building.

Lovely château situated privately in 12 hectares of woodland & meadows with a lake, orchard and guesthouse The château is a property consisting of a manor house with: Ground floor, a hall, library (38M2), music room (37M2), study, bedroom (14,4M2) with en suite shower room, a dining room (40M2), kitchen (37,5), scullery, laundry room and toilet. First floor: landing and 7 en suite bedrooms. Rooms average 20M2, not counting the ensuites. 2nd floor: 6 bedrooms, bathroom, attic. Cellar with boiler room. Pond and gîte nearby. Outbuilding for storage and 12 ha of surrounding land. This wonderful and romantic Château is situated in the middle of 12 hectares of woodland and pastures. The entrance is everything one would expect: a monumental gate and a drive up to a covered area to unpack and get out of your 'carriage'. The park around has got the old trees and meadows to wander around in. The orchard is a little bit further away and has got a view over the lake on the other side of the castle. The woodlands around make the property very private. Inside the castle you will find a large part of the floor in pisé: the traditional (and sustainable!) stones for creating a long lasting floor. You will find this in the hall, the dining room and the kitchen, all to the left of the entrance. The rest of the floors are made of wooden floorboards. To the right of the entrance you will find the library (with french doors), the music room and the office in the tower. But also a downstairs bedroom with ensuite, the utility room (ironing, washing, storage of bedlinen) a second utility with professional dishwashers and storage, the servants staircase and the toilets for the guests. There are seven generous bedrooms on the first floor of which six have ensuite bathrooms and one with a bathroom on the corridor. There even is a family bathroom. The second floor can also be used but will need an update: some painting and minor improvements. This floor is used to house more guests if the Château is rented for weddings or larger groups (conferences, team meetings etc) Two of the three gîtes are fit for families and there is a gîte for a couple.

A 15th-century castle in need of restoration, its hamlet of outbuildings and its panoramic grounds of 6 ha, 30 minutes from Brive in the Corrèze region. From the town centre, a country lane leads to the main entrance of the property. A driveway winds gradually through the English-style landscaped grounds, first bordered by hedges on either side, and then along a line of tall deciduous trees. The track ends beneath a large lime tree facing the castle, in whose shade it is easy to park or to discover the stunning vista. The medieval edifice stands proudly at the centre of a largely lawned plateau, below which a vast meadow stretches out to the great valley to the east. The panoramic view takes in the entire landscape from north to south - a single arc of greenery. Behind the chateau, hidden by the vegetation that marks the boundaries of the soberly landscaped grounds, are the large stone outbuildings. Built in the 19th century, they were designed to modernise the servants’ quarters and other outhouses of the estate without detracting from the authenticity of the medieval buildings. Two of these outbuildings face each other and are separated by a driveway that leads to a long farmhouse with sturdy stone walls. This drive, which serves a courtyard before marking the exit from the property, connects to a street running through the village. At the western end of the property stands an old winery, dating from the same period as the castle, a reminder of the region's wine-growing past.
