Rich in history and surrounded by nature, this is a property that offers not just a home, but an exceptional lifestyle.
The estate comprises a charming five-bedroom character home, a magnificent former water mill with outstanding development potential, and a superb swimming pool with elegant lounging areas. A picturesque stream meanders around the property before joining the nearby River Dordogne, creating a haven for wildlife and adding to the peaceful atmosphere that makes this home so special.
Entering through the gated entrance, you are immediately welcomed by the soothing sound of flowing water as you arrive in a spacious enclosed courtyard. A generous car port provides sheltered parking and complements this attractive arrival to the property.
Stepping inside the main house, a welcoming reception room leads into a bright and inviting sitting room centred around a large wood-burning stove. The fitted kitchen opens into a spacious dining room, also featuring its own wood-burning stove, creating a warm and sociable heart of the home.
One of the highlights of the property is the stunning 40 m2 living room, bathed in natural light through four large French doors opening directly onto a beautiful terrace. The current owners have thoughtfully arranged this part of the house as a self-contained guest suite, ideal for welcoming family and friends or generating seasonal rental income.
Upstairs, there are five bright bedrooms, all enjoying delightful views over the surrounding countryside. Three benefit from en-suite bathrooms, while two include walk-in wardrobes. The impressive principal suite, with its vaulted cathedral ceiling, extends to over 25 m2 and features its own bathroom and walk-in wardrobe.
A family bathroom and a separate office complete the first floor.
Nestled between the house and the former water mill lies a secluded courtyard draped in mature vines and fragrant jasmine. This wonderfully private space is perfect for long summer lunches and evenings spent entertaining alfresco, while the Scandinavian hot tub provides the ideal place to unwind during the cooler months.
The former water mill, no longer in operation, has its own independent entrance as well as access from the courtyard. Offering approximately 180 m2 of floor space, it presents exciting potential for conversion into additional accommodation, guest suites, a wellness space, workshops, artists' studios or a variety of other projects, subject to the necessary permissions.
Completing the estate is the superb swimming pool, surrounded by a spacious travertine sun terrace and mature greenery. Recently renovated, the heated pool benefits from an electric cover and a modern saltwater treatment system. A pétanque court completes this wonderful outdoor leisure area, creating an exceptional setting for enjoying long summer days and relaxed summer evenings in complete privacy.
Beyond the beautifully landscaped gardens, the estate extends to a secluded stretch of private frontage on the River Dordogne. Reached by a gentle stroll through your own grounds, this hidden sanctuary offers an idyllic place to unwind, surrounded by birdsong, flowing water and the beauty of the natural landscape.
Whether enjoying a morning coffee, reading a book, practising yoga or simply soaking up the tranquillity, this magical riverside retreat is a place to reconnect with nature and appreciate the exceptional setting of the estate.
The property also benefits from recently installed energy-efficient gas central heating and fibre-optic internet, ensuring modern comfort throughout the year.
Perfectly positioned between the charming villages of Vélines and Gensac, the property is only 2 km from a full range of amenities, including a supermarket, pharmacy, doctors, veterinary practice and a railway station with direct services to Bordeaux.
Bergerac and its international airport are approximately 30 km away, while Bordeaux can be reached in around an hour.
Combining timeless character, exceptional privacy, outstanding potential and a truly magical natural setting, this remarkable estate offers far more than an exceptional home—it presents a rare opportunity to embrace a lifestyle where history, nature and modern comfort exist in perfect harmony.
