Country house with annexe, pool and outbuildings

A Stunning 18th-Century Country House with Idyllic Grounds in the Lot-et-Garonne

Nestled in the rolling valleys of the Lot-et-Garonne, this exceptional 18th-century stone country house sits in 1–3 hectares of beautiful, park-like grounds, offering privacy, tranquility, and views that could make a postcard jealous.

Set in an idyllic, quiet location, the property boasts the most spectacular walled garden, built to exacting standards with stone walls, iron railings, a gated entrance, and raised beds creating, without doubt, the best vegetable garden in the area.

The main house is brimming with period features: exposed stonework, original fireplaces, beamed ceilings, ancient stone sinks, and a palpable sense of history. The large open-plan living room features a full-height ceiling with magnificent beams, a fireplace with a log-burning stove, and terracotta floor tiles. The stylish, modern kitchen, with granite worktops and integral appliances, opens via a glazed door onto a wisteria-clad balcony overlooking the walled garden. A cosy snug with polished ancient floorboards also enjoys access to the balcony, perfect for curling up with a book or a glass of wine.

Steps down to the ground floor reveal a study with a superb fireplace, utility room, downstairs loo, and glazed door leading to a covered terrace and the walled garden. There is also access to a large garage/store/workshop with entry to an ancient cave system — ideal for any aspiring pot-hollers or secret wine connoisseurs.

The property features comfortable, stylish bedrooms with sleek, modern bathrooms, all decorated and presented in excellent taste. Heating is via a modern heat pump, and the septic tank is fully compliant.

A separate guest cottage/gîte, full of charm, includes a modern fitted kitchen, log-burning stove, and a covered terrace – perfect for guests, family, or as a superb letting opportunity. There is also a garage block and a stylish home office above the pool.

The 12m × 6m swimming pool is surrounded by established trees and stone walls, offering a private oasis with fabulous views over the surrounding countryside and lake. The grounds feature ancient topiary, a well with water tank and irrigation system, and are laid out for both beauty and practicality.

All this is set at the end of a quiet lane, yet just a short drive from excellent local amenities, making this property the ultimate combination of charm, luxury, and country living — a truly rare opportunity to own a piece of history in the Lot-et-Garonne.
