About this Property

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a magnificent riverside estate in Lalinde, just 20 minutes from Bergerac. This elegant property is set on 2.5 hectares of private parkland with 400 metres of direct frontage on the Dordogne River. The setting is peaceful and secluded, surrounded by natural beauty and located on the edge of a charming Périgord bastide town offering shops, restaurants, and all essential amenities. Currently run as a gite business and Bed and Breakfast, a future owner would need to obtain necessary permission and appropriate business registration.

The main house, a luminous and refined Maison de Maître, enjoys a south-facing orientation with stunning views over the river. It is accessed via a private tree-lined driveway and offers a layout that is both elegant and functional. On the riverside level, there is a spacious apartment with a large terrace of approximately 80m², a living room with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, one bedroom, a shower room, and WC. A separate en-suite bedroom has its own independent access, ideal for guests or rentals. Additional rooms include a wine cellar, a boiler room, and a generous storage area.

On the first floor, another apartment features a terrace, living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, and two shower rooms. There is also a reception office and laundry room. The garden-level second floor opens with a grand entrance hall and a balcony with expansive views over the Dordogne. This level houses four elegant and spacious en-suite bedrooms filled with natural light, along with another laundry area. The top floor offers a large living space, kitchen, and a beautiful terrace with panoramic views, as well as attic space ready for conversion. A main staircase and separate service stairs connect all levels.

The property also includes five gîtes, each offering beautiful views of the river. One is a three-level house with a living room and fireplace, kitchen, riverside terrace, two bedrooms, a shower room, and an additional attic bedroom. The remaining four gîtes are independent and fully equipped, each about 50m², with a living area, kitchenette, bathroom, WC, and two bedrooms. Each gîte has its own generous private terrace facing the river.

The outdoor space is just as impressive, featuring a 17x7 metre chlorine pool fed by spring water, surrounded by a sunny terrace with olive and palm trees and a bamboo gazebo. There is also a charming riverside walk on the property, part of a protected UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Stone outbuildings include a dovecote, a barn, and a small house. The grounds also contain a well, a spring-fed pond, and pastureland.

Combining character, a prime location, and income potential, only a visit can truly reveal its full beauty, uniqueness, and possibilities.

Lalinde

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.
