Nestled in the middle of the lush green Dordogne countryside, sits this lovely Manoir that will take your breath away. This stunning property, is located just 7kms south eat from the N21 that passes through Thiviers, a popular bastide and lively market town.

Recently refurbished with attention to detail by the current owners – to ensure that the character of the property has been maintained, this is the perfect place for anyone who wants to settle down in a peaceful and semi-remote location, surrounded by nature and a couple of friendly neighbours. Yes, you’ll need a car to get about here as there is no close public transport, except for school buses, however, the closest farm shop is just 200 metres walk up the hill to the next hamlet, so practically on the door-step!

The Manoir sits proudly on a gently sloping hill and boasts magnificent views of the surrounding nature from every angle, and every window.

Surrounded on all sides by an abundance of outdoor space, including vast green fields and orchards of bountiful walnut trees, so you’ll be able to spend endless hours exploring and enjoying the beautiful outdoors, as well as enjoying the 5,500 square metres of garden, where you’ll find your own fruit trees of cherries, plums, walnuts, hazelnuts, fig and persimmon. All very easy to maintain and helped by the excellent services of the neighbouring farmer who mows the large lawn, although you could of course, mow it yourself…

This well-contained Manoir of 340m2 of living space has five generous bedrooms and four ensuite, providing ample space to host family, friends or guests of all ages.

You’ll have access to a spacious open-plan kitchen dining room which mixes farmhouse style with elegance, an inviting space where you can create mouthwatering dishes watched over by your family and friends.

The large airy salon has oodles of light shining through its large windows and the patio doors leading down the exterior stone steps to the pool area and gardens below. There’s a log burner in one of the two fireplaces in this room, and with electric heating throughout the property, you’ll keep cosy and warm in the mild winter months.

fancy a game of pool or billiards, or maybe a game of cards or chess, then head to the games room, with its original flagstone floors and massive fireplace, which was once used as the original cuisine, but now is home to a library of books and games.

There’s a newly installed 10m x 5m swimming pool, not heated but the water temperature can reach almost 30C in the warmer months of the year.

For your vehicles, whether they be supercars, classics or electric SUVs, there is a garage, two car carport, and parking in the driveways for around ten or more cars.

A cave or cellar runs under the Salon and office with scope for imaginative uses – it would make an excellent wine cellar.

Outside you have a working well, a pigeonière (or dovecote) that could convert, it’s been suggested, into a hamman or sauna (it is currently a reading room), and a discreet pool house housing the pool pump and equipment.

Sports enthusiasts will love the convenient location of this property, with a 9-hole golf course located just 14km away and two aqua-park tourist lakes only 4km away in Nantheuil and 20 minutes drive away in Rouffiac en Périgord. Moreover, if you’re planning to work remotely, this serene and calm environment will provide you with the ideal space for undisturbed focus with an office study and fibre broadband.

The nearest airport is just under one hour away in Limoges, with Bergerac one and a half hours distance. There’s a train station in Thiviers that links to the TGV rail link in Angouleme or Bordeaux, so theoretically getting to Paris in under four hours.

Thiviers has a weekly market and there are doctors, pharmacies, supermarkets, restaurants and cafés open year round.

A great lock-up and leave holiday home, this easy to maintain character property, also has the potential for a tourism boutique-style rental business.
