Village Bungalow

Tucked away in a peaceful residential corner of Saint-Sylvestre-sur-Lot, and just a pleasant stroll from everything you might reasonably (and unreasonably) need day-to-day, this ever-so-practical modern home offers comfortable living in one of the loveliest pockets of South-West France. The river is only moments away, perfect for the fishing enthusiasts.  The historic hilltop gem of Penne-d’Agenais—with its restaurants, cafés and postcard views—is practically on the doorstep.

Set behind a gated entrance, the property comprises a well-designed single-storey house with two bedrooms, sitting neatly within a private fenced and hedged garden of approximately 720 m². There is off-street parking including enough space to park a camping car, a garage, and a generous 10 × 5 metre swimming pool (currently in need of a new liner—an excellent excuse to choose your own colour).

The gardens are level, lawned and refreshingly low-maintenance—ideal for those who prefer enjoying a glass of wine in the sunshine to wrestling with hedge trimmers.

Inside, the house is light, bright and pleasingly airy. The sitting room features tiled flooring and an open fireplace, while the fitted kitchen offers practical everyday convenience. Bedrooms come with built-in wardrobes, and the property benefits from oil-fired central heating, double glazing, fibre-optic internet, and mains drainage—those reassuringly modern essentials.

Structurally sound and well presented, the house would benefit from a little cosmetic updating, making it a perfect opportunity for someone to add their own style without the drama of major works.

In short: if you’re searching for a charming, sensible home with a swimming pool, a garage, walk-to-everything convenience, and the gentle rhythm of riverside life nearby, this one rather takes some beating.
