Private 16th Century Stone Property with Pool & Guest House Potential

An exceptional historic stone estate set in the prestigious countryside of Gironde, just one hour from Bordeaux, France—one of the world’s most celebrated wine regions.

Dating from the 16th and 17th centuries, with refined 18th-century architectural additions, this elegant maison de caractère combines historic authenticity with modern comfort. Arranged around a charming private courtyard, the estate offers a rare opportunity to acquire a luxury French country residence with outstanding lifestyle and development potential.

Set within 1.23 hectares (3 acres) of landscaped grounds, orchards, and mature trees, the property includes a beautifully restored main residence, a converted bergerie with pool house, garage and workshops, and a second historic residence known as The Priory, adjoining a former winery barn—ideal for conversion into guest accommodation, staff quarters, or a boutique hospitality retreat (subject to planning).

The main house has been thoughtfully renovated to preserve its historic character while providing refined contemporary living. A striking tower entrance hall leads to elegant reception rooms including a double-aspect salon with grand fireplace and wood-burning stove, a library or music room, and a generous country kitchen featuring Aga and La Cornue ranges (available by separate negotiation).

Upstairs are five spacious bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing room and private ensuite, alongside additional ensuite and family bathrooms. A charming tower room provides a unique space ideal for a study, artist’s studio, or private retreat.
