Situated within 5 minutes of the pretty village of Saint Meard de Gurçon with its 12th. Century church, boulangerie, restaurants and handy shops. For bigger shopping expeditions the busy market town of Montpon-Ménestérol is just 15 minutes. Bergerac International Airport which operates low cost flights from most parts of the UK is just 30 minutes away and Bordeaux with its wine, culture and International Airport is within an hour and a quarter.  

This classic Longère (simply meaning long house) can be found at the end of a driveway in the peace and quiet of the countryside. It has a lovely light and bright Lounge/Dining Room measuring 46.5m², giving ample space for those large pieces of furniture and for you to spread out in comfort. The house has been lovingly restored by its French owner over a period of time so virtually all the rooms feature exposed stone and beams with parquet floors upstairs in the bedrooms. The adjoining barns at around 100m² each are great for storage and car parking but of course could be renovated to extend the accommodation of the main house or to provide gite accommodation.

The gardens are well established to the immediate front of the house with some younger trees and shrubs to the rear. Mature trees provide dappled shade in the garden but are far away enough not put the house in the shade, so the rooms benefit from nice bright sunshine all year round. A lovely house in a serene environment.
