Aquitaine, Dordogne, Excideuil, France

A beautiful stone mansion with impressive courtyard, outbuildings and swimming pool with southerly hilltop views.

The spacious 282m2 property features flexible accommodation with a total of seven bedrooms and four luxury bathrooms - currently occupied as a main home with a self-contained guest house.

Substantial outbuildings offer the potential for further accommodation (subject to permissions) and currently include an art studio, large double storey barn with stables, woodstore, garage, bread oven and covered terrace.

The main house comprises:

Ground floor - a modern fitted kitchen with island workstation, large laundry/store room, separate WC, double-size living room with impressive fireplace and underfloor heating. All rooms are double aspect with high ceilings providing plenty of light whilst naturally allowing easy access out to the garden.

First floor - three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Second floor - two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The guest house is connected to the main house on two levels and can therefore be reunited to make a single large family home, depending on owner's preferences.

Accessed via a private entrance on the ground floor, it offers a fully-equipped modern kitchen, double-aspect living room and a separate WC. On the first floor level is one double-bedroom and bathroom.

Up a further staircase there is second bedroom with its own wash-hand basin.

The large barn has five double glazed velux windows with plenty of space with a surface of 105m2 on each floor.

Across the courtyard can be found a garage and a woodstore.

Further along there is a single storey art studio, a covered terrace and a working bread oven.

The walled garden has mature trees and contains a securely fenced modern swimming-pool.

Bordering the furthest corner of the garden is a further double garage with electric gate.

This property has been tastefully renovated with quality materials throughout and offers all year round comfort.

An excellent energy efficiency rating is derived by a mixture of modern double and triple glazing, both under-floor and central heating solutions and modern insulation.

There is plenty of scope for further development to suit a new owner's preferences.
