Next door there is a spacious, well equipped kitchen with garden and courtyard access. Beyond this there is a large boiler room/laundry area with separate WC, a large workshop with double doors to the courtyard and upstairs here, a gorgeous, high ceilinged crafts workshop room with mezzanine and an office next door. The bedrooms are reached by the delightful, circular stone starircase in the tower.

There are 3, en suite bedrooms at first floor level and a further 2 en suite bedrooms at second floor level. Here also, there is a comfortable library/lounge/TV room just made for relaxing. More steps take you up to the huge and spacious double loft areas, which could be converted to provide more accommodation (subject to necessary permissions).

The history of the property is in evidence on this level, where an overhanging gallery can be seen with an openwork floor, used to drop projectiles or burning material on to assailants. Outside in the private, well landscaped garden, there is a 9 X 4m swimming pool with a telescopic cover. Magnificent views along the river Lot can be enjoyed from here. In the enclosed courtyard there is also a two storey, stone barn with two horse boxes, an open garage for parking two vehicles and another large garage attached to the main house. Whilst steeped in mediaeval history, this chteau has been thoughtfully and sympathetically renovated to provide spacious, light and comfortable accommodation.

Situated in a pretty hamlet, it offers seclusion, privacy and magnificent views yet is within easy reach of shops and services. A visit is highly recommended to this stunning property!

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

The property buying process in France takes time; it could be up to six months between seeing the property of your dreams and actually taking ownership. So how much would this €899,000 property cost you?

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 £27,995 more.
