Solid oak joinery, a majestic entranced courtyard and numerous substantial outbuildings offer flexible accommodation in a glorious setting. Modern luxuries such as a home cinema, yoga room, heated swimming pool, tennis court, large pigeonnier/meeting room and petanque pitch sit alongside the finely appointed living accommodation - including four exquisitely decorated lounges.

The main house is traditionally laid out over three floors, with services occupying the entire ground floor. A large kitchen, laundry room, cellar, dining room, toilet and expansive dry storage area are accessible to the front and rear. Impressive stone steps lead to a raised first floor main entrance which opens to a large pannelled reception hall.

A corridor connects three impressive south-facing lounges, a self-contained owner's quarters and a separate VIP bedroom with en suite bathroom. There is also an elegant washroom on this level. On the second floor, a spacious landing includes the games and cinema areas. A corridor leads to three good-sized bedrooms, a dormer with four beds and a large modern bathroom with WC.

The yoga room is off this level. Outbuildings include a two-bedroom guardian's cottage and another separate single-storey building containing four en suite bedrooms. Extensive barns provide additional accommodation if required (subject to planning permission). 18 solar panels provide much of the daily electricity consumption, with night water tanks and an oil-fired central heating system ensuring that the property is comfortable during the winter months. A private drive of over 1.5 km leads to the hilltop village, with private land on either side offering a combination of arable land, meadows and woodland.

On a clear day, there's a magnificent view of the Chteau de Hautefort in the distance to the south. South-facing stone terraces are available on two levels for entertaining. Outdoor facilities include a modern in-ground swimming pool, tennis court, petanque pitch and a large pigeonnier/meeting room. From its hilltop vantage point, this property offers total tranquility combined with commanding panoramic views!

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

Many overseas buyers in France do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £40,482 more.
