A 15th-century chateau, its outbuildings, grounds and swimming pool, surrounded by 21 hectares of unoccupied land, along the outskirts of the Quercy region, twenty minutes from Brive-la-Gaillarde. In the 14th century, the lands owned by the de Chabannes family were transferred to Adhémar d’Aigrefeuille, Baron of Gramat, before the de Muzac family, whose patriarch was the King of France’s sergeant-at-arms, took possession of the estate in the next century, pledging his allegiance to the Viscount of Turenne in the process. Through marriages and successive inheritances, the fiefdom was then passed down to the de Tournier family of Corrèze, followed by that of the de Materre de Chauffour family, which owned it until 1870. Left abandoned for nearly a century, the dwelling was given a new life in 1966 when a painter and his wife bought the chateau, nearly in ruins, and undertook a large-scale restoration. From the wrought-iron gate, which indicates the estate’s formal entrance, a gravel lane traverses a large swath of lawn and leads to the property’s upper patio, the latter of which skirts the southeast exterior of the oldest of the three dwellings. Faithful to the origin of its name, the dwelling is made up of two adjacent edifices, which hug the land’s natural slope: the older of the two is located above the more recent construction, whereas the two wings are partially connected via a third dwelling abutting a square tower-dovecote. The upper edifice, from the late 15th century, is made up of a rectangular structure, the western part of which was completely reassembled with original materials recovered from the rubble after 1945, while a stately hexagonal tower, with a lauze slate tile roof, juts forward into the courtyard. In addition, mullioned windows, including two corner ones behind the dwelling, cadence its exteriors, whereas, in the interior corner of the second building, in all likelihood built in the late 17th century, a circular tower, completely rebuilt in 2025, is topped with a lauze slate roof. This same dwelling also features a balcony with balusters, supported by a basket-handle arch, while a series of dormers, crowned with finials, punctate the various rooftops – long, conical, pavilion and hipped – that have been deftly blended together. Lastly, slate and barrel tiles as well as tall chimneys, gracefully coiffed, create an overall aesthetic and aerial composition, whereas the outbuildings – a Limousin-style barn and a former hunting lodge – provide the finishing touches for this remarkable and historical estate.

Before the year 1000, a wooden château was built at this location. In the 11th century, this château was transformed into a feudal fortress with a four-level tower, 3 vaulted cellars, and surrounding walls. The château was destroyed during the Hundred Years' War. In the 15th century, the dwelling was rebuilt with a chapel, a keystone, the lord's house, evidenced by the kitchen floor, and Gothic arcading. In the 17th century, a fire destroyed the château, which was rebuilt in the 18th century as we know it today. This château was titled viscountcy, and its lords held this title. Illustrious guests stayed there, such as Mr. de Mirabeau, who had his own room that bears his name. The family was linked to Turenne.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A 13th-century chateau, its outbuildings and feudal vestiges between Brive-la-Gaillarde and the foothills of the White Périgord region. From the hamlet’s small square, a 150-metre no-through road, framed on either side by large outbuildings that partially mask the property, provides access to the chateau’s court of honour via a wrought-iron gate flanked by stone pillars. The property’s enclosure walls, the round tower with its Renaissance dormer window and the crystallised ruins of an ancient lookout tower, are the remaining vestiges of the early chateau dating from 1226, which was expanded in the 15th century with the construction of the three-storey main building and its square tower, and then restored in 1650, this last phase being accompanied by the construction of the mansard roof outbuildings as well. Facing east to west, the barlong-shaped main building has a hipped roof flanked on opposite corners by two towers, one round and topped with a pepperpot roof and the other square with a pavilion roof. The three-storey façades of this classical-style dwelling, in lime-pointed rubble stone, are cadenced by many tall casement cross-windows with ashlar stone surrounds. The façade also has two sets of double glass doors with semi-circular spoked fanlights as well as two bull’s-eye windows, and is topped with a rounded dormer window on one side, which dynamically highlights a central row of windows. Two monumental chimneys rise up from this side of the roof as well, while the towers’ façades are punctuated by small windows, oculi and glass doors. All the windows and doors are safeguarded by single or double-leaf wooden shutters, with the exception of the mullion dormer window topped with a triangular pediment and a pinnacle that crowns the vertical row of windows on the chateau’s northern gable end. With two hectares of land, the property’s buildings were all constructed out of blond limestone and topped with Allassac slate roofs. Adjacent to the round tower and extending on from the main dwelling, a two-storey outbuilding, used mainly as housing, faces a triangular domestic outbuilding, which encloses the grand courtyard on one side. The latter is extended to the south by a large rectangular, landscaped patio, which provides the chateau’s western façade with a panoramic view, while from the chateau’s eastern façade, the grounds bordered by a gravel area reveal swathes of woodlands that extend towards the south. Lastly, an immense right-angle outbuilding used for agricultural purposes is located on the other side of the drive.
