Only 35 minutes from Bordeaux and discreetly nestled in the heart of a magnificent landscaped park with centuries-old trees, this majestic 18th-century Girondine manor, built from finely cut limestone, reveals itself at the end of a short approach through a peaceful hamlet. From the street, it is impossible to imagine the hidden treasure concealed behind the historic wrought-iron gates and central avenue that leads through the park to arrive at the house.
Once through the gates, the magic operates. A secluded sanctuary sheltered from view, where tranquility, elegance, and authenticity reign supreme.
Offering 700 sq m (approximately 7,535 sq ft) of living space across two buildings, with a total floor area of 760 sq m (approximately 8,180 sq ft), this exceptional family estate harmoniously combines the prestige of a historic residence with the comfort of a distinguished country home. Throughout, the original architectural features have been beautifully preserved: impressive ceiling heights, grand reception rooms, hardwood floors, marble fireplaces, period woodwork, and numerous architectural details all reflect the property’s noble heritage.
The main residence opens onto a magnificent through entrance hall, enhanced by a spectacular stone staircase that immediately sets the tone. From this impressive space flow three elegant reception rooms of generous proportions, bathed in natural light, together with a spacious family kitchen centered around an impressive stone fireplace?the true heart of the home.
Wine enthusiasts will also appreciate the vast vaulted cellar, an authentic wine cellar offering ideal natural conditions and generous capacity for building an exceptional collection in the finest Bordeaux tradition.
Extending from the main house, a dedicated entertaining wing has been thoughtfully designed to welcome family and friends in complete comfort. Its remarkable reception room of nearly 70 sq m (approximately 753 sq ft) is made for memorable gatherings. During the warmer months, large sliding doors open generously onto the swimming pool and gardens, while in winter the room transforms into a warm, distinctly British-inspired retreat, complete with a wood-burning stove and an elegant bar area. A spacious dormitory completes this wing, providing ideal accommodation for guests, family celebrations, or younger visitors.
Upstairs in the main residence, a generous landing leads to four spacious bedrooms, two of which enjoy their own en-suite shower rooms. The principal suite benefits from a private bathroom. A central corridor discreetly connects to the west wing of the house, where two additional bedrooms are set slightly apart from the main sleeping quarters. This layout offers excellent independence and creates numerous possibilities, including a luxury guest accommodation, seasonal rentals, or a professional practice with the option of a separate ground-floor entrance.
A comfortable distance from the main residence, tucked away within the park, lies a second hidden gem: a charming historic stone barn that has been meticulously renovated to an exceptional standard.
Here, the atmosphere subtly evolves. Historic character blends seamlessly with refined contemporary design. A spectacular loft-style living area features dark aluminum-framed windows, polished concrete floors, exposed stone walls, and magnificent original timber beams. The sitting room opens widely onto the park and flows naturally into an impressive kitchen centered around an oversized island?a space created for cooking, conversation, and entertaining.
Upstairs, two generously proportioned bedrooms each benefit from their own en-suite shower room. Both enjoy direct outdoor access via an elegant suspended gallery, the perfect place to admire the stars, the peaceful park, and the graceful silhouette of the village church steeple as dusk settles over the landscape.
The estate now offers a total of nine bedrooms and eight bath or shower rooms, allowing it to accommodate either a large family or discerning guests in the context of a luxury hospitality business.
Entirely independent, this second residence represents an outstanding opportunity for high-end holiday rentals. Ideally located within easy reach of Bordeaux, Saint-Émilion, and many of the region’s most celebrated destinations, it is perfectly positioned to attract both French and international guests seeking authenticity, charm, and refinement.
Outside, the landscaped grounds form a magnificent green sanctuary. Majestic centuries-old trees stand alongside an orchard, a kitchen garden, and a historic well, creating a living landscape that evolves beautifully with the seasons. A succession of outdoor leisure spaces enhances the estate: a summer dining area, a 5 × 10 m swimming pool, a pétanque court, and expansive lawns all invite relaxed enjoyment of this exceptional setting,
Rare for its character, exceptional for its setting, and remarkable for the quality, this is far more (5.67 % fees incl. VAT at the buyer’s expense.)
