About this Property

Believed to have been built for the town's Mayor, this remarkable townhouse offers a rare combination of grandeur, historic charm and gorgeous gardens. The main house features 5 spacious bedrooms, alongside an additional 5 bedrooms designed for guest accommodation from what would have been the former stables — perfect for hosting family, friends, or creating a boutique hotel/gite rental opportunity (with the necessary permissions).

The moment you step through the impressive elegant entrance, the character and beauty of this home unfold. High ceilings, original fireplaces, large windows flooding the property with light and numerous period features grace every room, exuding a timeless elegance rarely found.

The inner courtyard is equally impressive, offering parking for up to 7 cars. Beyond, the established gardens are a true haven, thoughtfully landscaped with multiple seating areas perfect for relaxing and enjoying views over the Dordogne river.

The swimming pool provides a refreshing retreat while cosy evenings can be enjoyed at the fire pit area with built-in seating.

Ideally located, with all amenities within walking distance, including the train station for direct access to Bordeaux and onwards to Paris. Bergerac airport is just 25kms away, placing this exceptional property at the heart of one of France's most celebrated regions for vineyards gastronomy and tourism.

This unique property is truly without equal — a rare opportunity to own a piece of the town’s rich history while enjoying modern comforts in an extraordinary setting. Contact us today to arrange a viewing.

Aquitaine

Gironde

Sainte-Foy-la-Grande

Aquitaine

If you want variety, Aquitaine is possibly the place for you. The largest administrative region in France, covering pretty much the whole of the south west corner. It has Atlantic coastal towns and seemingly endless pine forests to the west, the stunning backdrop of the Pyrénées in the south, vineyards (both wine and cognac) in the centre and north, lush pastures and agricultural landscapes in the north east and the most stunning architecture, valleys and villages from the centre towards the east.

Testimonials

    Testimonial by Andrew Cotton

    Having decided to go ahead with our plan to buy an investment property in France, we initially tracked the market across a number of websites and across a wide area covering the Dordogne and the Lot regions. It quickly became clear that the responses we received from the Beaux Villages team were the most helpful and, based on some discussions about what we were looking for, we were able to put an initial viewing trip together. Based on this viewing trip, we narrowed the geographic area of our search and Beaux Villages became the leading agent we spoke to, including arranging some visits to see properties that were not exclusively listed with them, which made the viewing trips easy to arrange and manage. After a second viewing trip, we found our dream property, albeit at a price which was a little over our budget. At this point, the Beaux Villages team helped us navigate the process of understanding what the different stages of the offer and purchasing process would be, what the fees for each aspect would be and allowed us to put together an offer which was rejected initially, but some months later secured us a property we are really pleased, and sometimes a little amazed, to now own. Without the input of Judith Whitlow [, and her husband Kevin,] we would have not had the confidence to navigate the process successfully. Their input, from the initial offer all the way through to the couple of weeks after our purchase went through (when dealing with some of the issues which arise when buying a property abroad), was clear, pragmatic and incredibly helpful. Based on their experience having lived in France for some time and the clarification they could therefore offer on issues which were sometimes difficult to understand and assess, we felt very comfortable making decisions about what is a very significant investment for us. I warmly recommend Judith to anyone considering purchasing a property in France – without them, we would have had a much more difficult time getting to completion.
