A 1970s gem designed by an architect, with a swimming pool, character and charm - Villeneuve-sur-Lot
Discreetly tucked away behind a gated entrance and framed by beautifully landscaped gardens with magnificent specimen trees, this architect-designed 1970s home is something truly special. Offered on the market for the first time since its construction, this highly sought-after family home exudes personality, spaciousness, and mid-century style.
The main house offers four bedrooms (one with a balcony, another with a dressing room), a bright living room with a fireplace and mezzanine, a fitted kitchen, and numerous thoughtful details—exposed stonework, plaster cornices, and beautiful parquet floors—that make a house a truly inviting place to live. Equipped with double glazing and oil-fired central heating, the property also includes a large underground garage.
Outside, the setting is simply enchanting: over half a hectare of park-like gardens with a 10m x 4m swimming pool, a large garage, a workshop and a storage room, an open carport, and even a few small outbuildings just waiting to be converted into an artist's studio or a home office. The views are magnificent and the privacy is complete.
Although the property needs some refreshing and updating, it is reasonably priced and offers enormous potential to create an exceptional home in this highly sought-after area of southwest France.
Peacefully rural, yet only five minutes from the lively town of Villeneuve-sur-Lot, 15 minutes from the historic bastide town of Monflanquin, and just 45 minutes from Bergerac airport, this house is a wonderful country retreat. Surrounded by vineyards, castles, and abundant markets, it's hard to imagine a better place to live the good life .
