Luxury real estate for sale Montpezat, France (page 3)

A 15th century, Seigneurial home in almost 8 5 ha, given over to leisure and horses, between the Lot Valley and the Guyenne hills. Surrounded by unspoilt countryside, this residential property is composed of several buildings, converted for accommodation and leisure purposes. It is set in grounds, spanning more than 8 continuous hectares, including woods, meadows and even a pond, much appreciated by passing ducks. The origins of this old Seigneury, belonging to a local count, date back to the 15th century. Around 1650, two wings were adjoined to the main rectangular building, creating a U-shape around a main courtyard. Nowadays, a low stone wall, vestige of the east wing, still supports the boxwood parterre which shields the swimming pool and its swimmers from onlookers in the courtyard. Adjoining, a dovecote tower with a stone stairway - certainly the old, monumental stairway - going up to the first floor, no doubt once home to the wing’s Great Room. It is followed by a farm outbuilding which, built at the latest in the early 19th century, houses a workshop and a guest house, comprising two dwellings. The count’s heirs lived modestly in these premises until 1996, without carrying out a great deal of maintenance works. The property was almost completely restored, with some sections being entirely reconstructed, by the current owners. The access road, ending in a dead end, separates the truffle woods and the horse enclosures. Further on is a tennis court set, on a slightly lower level, between shrubberies and vegetation; then a strip of land laid to lawn marks a last breath of air before starting down the gentle slope towards the entrance at the foot of the buildings.

A 13th-century Gascon chateau, redesigned in the 16th century, in 7 5 hectares of grounds with an orangery and a dovecote, nestled in France's Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. This chateau stands like a sentry by its quaint village in a commanding, defensive position from where it looks out over the surrounding slopes. The chateau has defended the valley for more than 700 years. The four-storey dwelling and its two adjoining round towers are the remnants of the original Gascon castle. In the 15th century, mullioned windows were added to let more natural light inside. And an Italian Renaissance stairway tower was added too. The chateau was rescued by a man who was enthusiastic about built heritage. He restored it and showcased the Italian style that characterised the Aquitaine region’s most beautiful houses – a style that we also see in the gardens and the chateau’s main lounge.

An old hunting lodge, set in a wonderful garden surrounded by forest, in the Landes-Girondines region. Once the remote-controlled gates are open, visitors are able to appreciate a view of the garden. With its wealth of flowers, it is harmoniously laid out around the large house whose origins date back to the 16th century. It was once a convent, prior to being converted into a hunting lodge. It is said that Henri IV stayed here during his many jaunts into the region, but that is possibly a legend.

After his training with Laurens and Dechenaud in Paris, he exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français and the Salon d'Automne from 1922 onwards. A painter of local life, he set up his easel in Cahors and Avignon, in Italy and in the United States.

The outside wall is constructed from half-timbering with small brick masonry filler.

A fortified watermill with a 12th-century tower, nestled in the River Tolzac valley in France’s Lot-et-Garonne department. From the road, the edifice’s gable end can be seen emerging ever so slightly from the thick vegetation around it. But to properly admire the architecture of this beautiful watermill, its medieval tower and its adjoining annexe, you have to leave the road, drive along a river with a strip of lawn on your other side, then park in a gravelled space. At first glance, you see an intriguing mix of structures made of pointed rubble stone and brick with many windows, beneath roofs of monk-and-nun tiling. The river flows through two stone arches that support the watermill from underneath. Behind, a square tower crowned with a pyramidal roof of flat tiles overlooks the whole complex. Lawns surround the buildings and edge the steep-banked river. At the back, an iron footbridge crosses the stream and leads to a meadow that stretches north-west beyond leafy trees. Further upstream on the grounds, two brooks join to form one, flow in a loop, and turn the water wheel. On the other side, in front of a grove, a swimming pool lies beside the annexe. A few metres from there, a garden shed stands near a vegetable patch. The property covers over 1.2 hectares in total.
