Description
The residence retains a wealth of period detail reflecting its distinguished past. Intricate ceiling mouldings, traditional wood panelling, marble fireplaces, parquet floors, antique tiles, painted ceilings and wrought-iron features all contribute to its historic character. High ceilings and spacious reception rooms enhance the sense of grandeur, while a historic well within the house provides a fascinating reminder of an earlier era.
An adjoining guest annexe, accessed from the principal entrance, offers flexibility for family living, independent accommodation or a hospitality venture. The substantial outbuildings provide further potential for adaptation, subject to the relevant permissions.
Some areas would benefit from thoughtful modernisation, presenting an opportunity to enhance the property while respecting its original character. Equally suited to an impressive private residence or a project such as a boutique hotel, professional offices or another bespoke venture, this is a property whose scale, historic features and versatility offer considerable scope.
The property is complemented by a substantial walled garden, accessed through a gated entrance and offering a welcome sense of tranquillity in the heart of the town. With generous outdoor space and scope for further landscaping or the possibility of a swimming pool, subject to the necessary permissions, the garden provides an appealing counterpoint to the grandeur of the house.
Within walking distance to Libourne’s shops, restaurants, schools and railway station, with convenient connections to Bordeaux and up to Paris via TGV, this is a rare opportunity to shape the next chapter of a significant historic residence, combining architectural heritage, generous proportions and an appealing garden setting in the heart of the town.
