Steeped in history, this remarkable former Templar estate offers approximately 665 m2 of beautifully restored living space within a fully enclosed walled domain, combining character, privacy and income potential. Arranged around an elegant courtyard garden, the main residence features spacious reception rooms, a study, kitchen, cellars, 9 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
Two independent accommodations complete the property: a guest house with bedroom and bathroom, and a restored studio opening onto the courtyard and gardens.
Numerous original outbuildings reflect the estate's rich heritage, including a pigeon tower, former stables, barn, wine cellar, traditional bread oven, prune-drying house and a fully renovated artist's workshop.
Having previously operated as a guest house, this property offers excellent potential for the development of holiday gites, boutique bed and breakfast accommodation, wellness retreats, or private events (subject to necessary permissions).
A beautiful 17th-century wrought-iron gate leads to the leisure area featuring a 12 x 6 metre swimming pool, pool house and well. From the terrace, the views across the valley are simply stunning.
The estate also benefits from over one hectare of adjoining land, currently planted with a variety of fruit trees. Combined with the former stables, it is ideally suited for an equestrian project, keeping horses, or creating an orchard.
Ideally located within walking distance of local shops, just 9 km from a lively spa town with restaurants and casino, 15 km from Marmande railway station, 6 km from the motorway and approximately one hour from Bordeaux International Airport.
A rare historic estate combining prestige, character, lifestyle and outstanding hospitality income potential.

Buying a Property in France
1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.
The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.
Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.
2. Paying the Deposit
Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.
3. On Completion
Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.
During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
