Description
Tucked away in a quiet hamlet just outside the lively medieval village of Issigeac, this remarkable former fortified home stands as a proud reminder of the region's rich history. Thoughtfully and tastefully renovated, it now offers contemporary comfort while preserving its original soul — thick stone walls, graceful proportions, and far-reaching views over the rolling Dordogne countryside.
Just 15 minutes from Bergerac airport and the train station, the property combines rural tranquility with excellent accessibility.
Inside, generous and light-filled rooms blend period character with understated elegance. The main living and dining space, with travertine floors and a wood-burning stove, opens directly onto a wide terrace — the perfect place to savor the sweeping sunsets. The adjoining kitchen is professionally equipped yet harmoniously in keeping with the house's natural materials.
A self-contained studio with its own courtyard and entrance provides ideal guest accommodation or potential rental income.
On the main floor, the impressive salon with its stone fireplace and Juliet balconies captures the essence of the home — warm, inviting, and oriented toward the view. All the bedrooms include private en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, and beautiful timber details, offering both charm and practicality for family and guests alike.
Outside, the landscaped garden of over half a hectare has been designed for easy enjoyment. The terraces lead to a superb heated pool and a stone pool house — secure, sun-drenched, and surrounded by mature trees and flowering borders.
An additional guest suite and a well-appointed annex extend the living options, ideal for visiting family or boutique-style rental opportunities.
Whether as a full-time residence, a refined holiday retreat, or an income-generating property, this former fortified home offers a rare combination of heritage, comfort, and serenity — a true Dordogne treasure.
