Superb and beautifully renovated chateau set in over 5 acres with income potential, a true Dordogne gem, in excellent condition with a host of character features offering timeless charm combined with modern comfort in the area of St Andre et Apelles, close to Sainte Foy la Grande.

The immaculately presented 'petite chateau' is found at the end of a tree-lined driveway. Every corner reflects a residence that is both elegant and welcoming.

On the ground floor, the living spaces flow gracefully, designed with both family life and entertaining in mind.

A charming kitchen sets the heart of the home, complemented by a separate dining room perfect for hosting dinner parties.

A versatile downstairs bedroom or office offers flexibility for guests or work-from-home living.

The property also boasts a large salon, ideal for gatherings, and a smaller, more intimate salon - a cosy retreat for quieter moments.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress: The master bedroom enjoys a bright and spacious feel, complete with a stylish Jack & Jill en-suite shower room, shared with Bedroom 3. Both rooms are perfectly suited for comfort and convenience.

Bedroom 4 and Bedroom 5 each benefit from their own private en-suite shower rooms, while an additional shower room is available off the corridor.

Bedroom 6 completes this delightful arrangement, ensuring ample space for family and guests alike.

The cellar features a large laundry and boiler room, offering excellent utility space, alongside a traditional wine cellar, adding to the authenticity and character of the home.

The extensive estate grounds are simply enchanting. Surrounding the chateau are sweeping lawns, mature woodland, and a productive orchard, providing beauty and variety throughout the seasons.

A large covered terrace overlooks the orchard - the perfect spot for al fresco dining, summer gatherings, or simply enjoying the tranquil views.

The inviting pool area is enhanced by a charming pool house, fitted with a wc, kitchen area, and storage, making it ideal for leisure and entertaining.

Adding further appeal, the property includes a beautifully renovated 4-bedroom stone longhouse with four bathrooms.
