A chateau from the late 17th century, with breath-taking views, outbuildings and 38 hectares of wooded hills and pastures in the Périgord Noir region. The site, absolutely magnificent, is one of these numerous Périgord plateaus sandwiched within a complicated network of large and small valleys with abrupt edges and spectacular views, surrounded on all sides by a landscape practically devoid of all human occupation. Comparable to that of a horseshoe, with its curves corresponding to the property’s north and northwest slopes and the central part to the estate’s cultivated plateaus, the site’s topography culminates at an average of about 200 metres in altitude with an elevation gain of approximately 20 metres, guaranteeing awe-inspiring views of the surrounding woods, hills and meadows. Divided up in the 1970s, the property has, nevertheless, preserved 38 of its original 104 hectares. Remarkably conserved thanks to careful replanting, these spaces underscore this site’s singular value, which still succeeds in offering a meaningful testimony to the splendour of these great estates of yesteryear. Founded in 1571, as indicated in the archives, and passed down from the Lord of Roufflilhac to various bourgeois and local notables, the “noble dwelling”, more commonly known as “the chateau”, and its outbuildings were built during the late 17th century over the vestiges of a medieval dwelling destroyed during the French Wars of Religion. Although possessing the essential Périgord architectural characteristics from the late 17th century, it was reorganised in the 18th and 19th centuries, when it was acquired by the Pontou family, who would go on to keep the property in their possession for more than 100 years. Today, the property includes the chateau, the 'Old House', a former tenant farm now used as a guesthouse, a caretaker’s cottage and former stables partially converted into accommodations, the whole forming a kind of hamlet. In addition, a completely restored dovecote with a stone slate roof, a tennis court and an immense infinity swimming pool are scattered throughout the grounds, the water for which is supplied by the property’s own natural spring located below the main dwelling along with a washhouse and basin. The result? One of the most beautiful properties in Dordogne – the authenticity of which has been carefully conserved – providing breath-taking views of the surrounding Unesco Word Heritage-protected landscape.

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.

Perched on a scenic ridge in south-central France, this magnificent chateau estate offers a premium, turn-key investment opportunity. The property is uniquely adaptable for continued use as a premier destination wedding venue, or for conversion into a five-star luxury boutique hotel, gastronomic retreat, or elite educational institution. The estate features high-end infrastructure, including newly renovated en-suite accommodations for up to 70 guests, a deluxe bridal suite, outstanding views, ceremonial lawns, and a half-Olympic-sized pool. Perfectly positioned for luxury slow tourism, the estate offers total privacy alongside exceptional connectivity. It is located within 45 to 120 minutes of three regional airports, and minutes from a popular medieval town.
