Description

A46351TYS24 - Situated within one of Montignac-Lascaux's oldest quarters, this remarkable period property offers two separate entrances: one serving the main residence and the other providing access to the substantial garage. Behind its traditional stone façade lies a home of surprising scale, versatility and character.

The 48.6m² garage provides exceptional parking, workshop and storage space, with conversion potential (subject to the necessary permissions). A beautiful stone archway leads to a 13m² utility room, with direct access to the enclosed gardens and courtyard.

The main entrance opens into a welcoming hall and staircase (4.6m²) leading to the principal accommodation. At its heart is a superb 37.2m² open-plan living room, centred around the original stone fireplace dated 1654. Exposed stone walls, original beams and a contemporary fitted kitchen combine period charm with modern comfort.
A separate 10.6m² reception/dining room opens directly onto the rear terrace overlooking the gardens. This floor also offers a 15m² bedroom with French doors to the terrace, a 3m² bathroom and a separate 0.7m² WC.
The second floor comprises a spacious 12.1m² landing, ideal as a reading or study area, a 12.5m² bedroom and a separate 1.65m² WC, all beneath the beautifully preserved original roof structure.

Private enclosed gardens and sunny terraces, arranged over several levels, provide peaceful outdoor living rarely found in the centre of Montignac.

Adding further versatility is the independent one-bedroom gîte, benefiting from its own private entrance while also enjoying direct access to the courtyard and gardens.
Perfect for guests, multi-generational living, home working or holiday rental, it comprises a 31m² open-plan living room with a solid wood fitted kitchen and breakfast bar opening onto the courtyard.
Upstairs is a 16.7m² bedroom, a 4m² shower room, a 1.7m² airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and a separate 1.3m² WC.

The property benefits from double-glazed wood-effect PVC windows, electric roller shutters, electric heating and mains drainage.

Situated in the heart of Montignac-Lascaux, cafés, restaurants, independent shops, the weekly market, riverside walks and the internationally renowned Lascaux International Centre of Cave Art are all within easy walking distance.

Already standing when the Napoleonic Cadastre was compiled and centred around its remarkable 1654 fireplace, this exceptional home has witnessed centuries of Montignac's history while evolving for modern living.

Combining a substantial family residence, an independent gîte, enclosed gardens, private terraces, secure off-road parking for two vehicles and a remarkable garage/workshop, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the Périgord Noir's most distinctive period homes.

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.
