Description

A33691SNM46 - A Remarkable Home with History, Warmth and Opportunity

In the heart of a beautiful Quercy Blanc market town, this stunning 14th-century white stone townhouse offers an extraordinary blend of character, space and comfort. Grand in scale yet wonderfully welcoming, it is a home designed to be lived in and enjoyed.

Entering at street level, you are immediately drawn to the breathtaking white stone spiral staircase — a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and the heart of the house.

To the right, a 60m² room currently used as an antiques shop, with large storefront window and independent street access, offers huge potential — whether as a studio, gallery, business space or spectacular entertaining room.

A few steps down leads to the remarkable 6.6m x 6.7m stone cellar suite, complete with chandelier, original alcoves and authentic local white stone floor. This atmospheric and surprisingly cosy space forms the stunning, award-winning Airbnb apartment, beautifully finished and already generating excellent income — an unforgettable guest experience and a rare, valuable asset.

Ascending the staircase, the first floor reveals a charming 24m² bedroom overlooking the rear terrace, connected to a shower room with walk-in shower, WC and basin. A beautiful hallway leads to the magnificent covered terrace, framed by two tall stone arches overlooking the swimming pool — a magical setting for long lunches or evening drinks.

Just a few steps up from the entrance is the spectacular 82m² main living space. At one end, the light-filled kitchen features high ceilings, original beams, picturesque front views and a superb stainless-steel range cooker — perfect for keen cooks and relaxed gatherings alike.

At the other end, the space divides naturally into two inviting areas: a cosy sitting room with large fireplace and log burner for winter evenings, and an elegant dining area with its own fireplace and intimate atmosphere. Two sets of French doors open onto the upper terrace, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

The property benefits from double glazing throughout for comfort and efficiency.

Further up, the magnificent 60m² library is flooded with natural light from two sets of full-length double doors and showcases beautiful original wooden ceilings and architectural details.

Beyond this lies a 50m² salon or potential bedroom with stone features and fireplace, alongside a well-appointed bathroom with bath, WC, basin and bidet. A spacious 44m² bedroom with fireplace and balcony provides another peaceful retreat.

Climbing a few more steps brings you to the impressive principal suite, featuring two immense Palladian windows, an original wooden ceiling, superb fireplace, majestic chandelier and stained glass detail overlooking the staircase. The large ensuite bathroom includes bath, bidet and WC, and a generous dressing room could easily become an additional bedroom. Above, a substantial attic with good ceiling height offers further potential.

Terraces, balcony and swimming pool create wonderful outdoor living spaces with lovely views.

With modern comforts including good insulation and a heat pump, this is a historic home that feels warm, practical and ready to be enjoyed — whether as a substantial family residence, an income-generating opportunity, or both.
The current owner rents a garage just around the corner at a great price, which could also be an option for the new owners.

This beautiful white-stone market town is renowned for its stunning market square and church. Known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, the town boasts a super weekend market, a variety of good restaurants, boutiques, supermarkets and art galleries. There is also a very good school and sports complex. There is always something going on, and in summer the town has lots of events such as concerts, night markets and marchés gourmands.
It's a great place to live, whether full time or as a holiday location.

With excellent road links:

Cahors: 25 minutes by car
Montauban: 35 minutes
Toulouse International Airport: about 1 hour
Mediterranean coast: 3 hours
Bordeaux and Arcachon: less than 3 hours
Spain or the Pyrenees: around 3 hours

A property like this won’t stay on the market for long, so don’t hesitate to get in touch for a chat or to arrange a viewing.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
