Aquitaine, Dordogne, Lalinde, France

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 Perigord 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 Maitre, 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 gites, 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 gites are independent and fully equipped, each about 50m2, with a living area, kitchenette, bathroom, WC, and two bedrooms. Each gite has its own generous private terrace facing the river.

The outdoor space is just as impressive, featuring a 17 x 7 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.
