Aquitaine, Gironde, Savignac-de-l`Isle, France

A47939SAG33 - Set discreetly back from the road in the heart of Savignac-de-l’Isle, this substantial period property offers an increasingly rare combination: the character and generous proportions of an older Gironde residence, approximately 1.2 hectares of predominantly pasture land, an outbuilding and a very large swimming pool, all while village amenities are within walking distance and Libourne is only around 10–15 minutes away.

Approached via a small lane and positioned behind the château, the property enjoys a good degree of privacy despite its convenient village setting. A bakery and grocery shop are just across the road, while the village school, mairie and public transport are also easily accessible.

The main house immediately impresses with its original character. On the ground floor, the spacious kitchen of approximately 31 m² features a fireplace and offers plenty of room for creating a welcoming family kitchen and dining space. The particularly impressive living room extends to approximately 42 m² and also benefits from a fireplace, providing a superb reception space with excellent natural light.

The ground floor also includes an office, a bedroom and useful service rooms, offering flexibility for home working, accommodating guests or predominantly ground-floor living.

Upstairs are four further generously proportioned bedrooms. One of the most distinctive is an approximately 29 m² bedroom situated within the tower, adding considerable character to the property. A bathroom and separate shower room serve this floor, while additional space offers the possibility, subject to any necessary permissions and works, of creating a sixth bedroom or adapting the accommodation to suit future requirements. Attic spaces provide further useful storage.

Outside, approximately 1.2 hectares of predominantly pasture land provide plenty of space and scope for a variety of lifestyle projects, including potential equestrian use. A substantial barn of approximately 166 m², which requires some renovation, offers excellent possibilities for storage, workshop space or future development, subject to any necessary permissions.

A major feature of the grounds is the impressive swimming pool, measuring approximately 14 x 8 metres. The pool currently requires renovation but, once restored, could become a spectacular focal point for the garden and outdoor entertaining areas.

The property itself requires modernisation, giving its future owners the opportunity to restore and personalise a character home of considerable proportions. Works are required to the electrical and plumbing installations, some ceilings require attention, the individual drainage system is not compliant with current standards and the swimming pool requires renovation. The roof of the tower is understood to have been renewed approximately fifteen years ago.

Savignac-de-l’Isle enjoys an attractive position in the Gironde countryside while remaining exceptionally convenient for everyday life. Libourne, with its historic centre, shops, restaurants, renowned market, schools, services and railway station, is approximately 10–15 minutes away by car. Good road connections also provide access towards Bordeaux and the wider Gironde region.

With its generous accommodation, genuine period character, extensive grounds and substantial outbuilding, this is a property with considerable potential. Whether transformed into an impressive family home, an equestrian property or a peaceful countryside retreat, it offers the space and versatility to create something truly special within easy reach of Libourne.
