Overview
One of a kind, 4 bedroom stone property, in 3.3 hectares, with stunning views.
Interior and Garden
Historic, stone house dating from the Roman times with a wealth of features, cut out from the bedrock, with the most extraordinary interiors along with the most fascinating history. The property was formerly a priest house for a few centuries, with a carved out stone seat for meditation under a large piece of overhanging bed rock. Sympathetically renovated to provide a comfortable family home with all modern conveniences.
Comprising of main house and a small second house, which has been partly renovated (all the hard work done), various outbuildings and stables, numerous water sources with apparently magical healing powers (hard to verify that one!). A fabulous Mediterranean, outside dining area with wonderful views, and a Roman well built into the bedrock.
The property has been adapted for today’s living style with pompe à chaleur heating system, open fireplace and electric velux windows, to provide some modern comforts. All within a few minutes’ walk of a thriving small town with all amenities and a 15-minute drive to Agen. I think I can safely say you won’t find another house quite like it! For all those amateur archaeologists this is your chance! The garden is 3.3 hectares and has trees which have produced the much coveted black truffle and there is 0.7 of a hectare of woodland & mushroom terrain a short walk away.
The Area
Located in a quiet location with no close neighbours in its own grounds just outside a small town with supermarket and all conveniences. This property is only 20 minutes Agen and Villeneuve and 1.5 hours to Toulouse and Bordeaux.
