Unique opportunity to acquire an exquisite 4 bedroom Chateau, separate
4 bedroom Annex, Games Pavilion and expansive pool, set in nearly 17 acres of beautiful landscaped gardens while enjoying far reaching countryside views from its peaceful location near all amenities in Thiviers.

This absolutely stunning estate is situated in a private position in the Dordogne countryside within easy distance to all commerce. A winding tree-lined drive leads to the Chateau adjacent to which is the Guest Annex with gym, workshop and three car garage.

Double French doors provide the entrance to the ground floor of the Chateau from which an attractive winding staircase allows access to the first floor. An antique three-quarter size back-lit statue set into the wall provides special interest.

The ground floor gives access to a large double bedroom with French doors opening onto the garden and there is a bathroom en-suite with both bath and shower. Also on the ground floor is a guest cloakroom, laundry/utility room and a boiler room.

The first floor landing provides access to a spectacular double-sized Grande Salon with casement windows giving beautiful views over the gardens and on the opposite wall a magnificent 18th century style stone fireplace. Beautiful antique tapestries hang from the walls. Also accessed from the first floor is a large dining room with fireplace and access to a modern well-equipped kitchen.

The dining room opens onto a large full-length covered terrace overlooking the swimming pool. There is a barbecue area off the dining room and double French polished doors lead from the dining room to three further double bedrooms with views of the pool area and a fourth slightly smaller bedroom that is currently used as a study. This fourth bedroom has access to the garden. A family bathroom and separate WC service these bedrooms.

On the second floor there is a very large master bedroom with a walk in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom. Windows on both sides offer spectacular views of the garden in both directions.

The conversion of the top floor of the large 18th century barn adjacent to the Chateau has created the Guest Annex. Entry is to the extremely comfortable open plan large living room and modern kitchen. There are three beautifully furnished double bedrooms all with modern en-suite bathrooms and with views of the surrounding countryside. There is also a fourth single bedroom which could provide space for additional facilities such as a utility or laundry room which would make the annex totally self-sufficient if let as an up-market Gite. The whole of the annex has its own heating system separate from that of the Chateau.

There is a gymnasium room on the mezzanine level of the annex. Access to the gymnasium is via a sizeable workshop on the ground floor of the building. In addition to the workshop, there is a three-car garage on the ground floor level. Note: Two additional bedrooms could be created in the space currently used by the gymnasium above the workshop.

There is a large (approximately 14m x 5m) fresh water swimming pool with a modern filtration system, and a spacious stone-built pool house with tiled roof to match the Chateau, overlooks the pool. The pool house has hot and cold running water, and there are facilities for the addition of a shower if required. The pool is surrounded by a paved sun terrace and separated from the main Chateau by a broad lawned area. A fully mechanised pool cover provides safety while the pool is not being used.

A stand-alone Games Pavilion is located near the annex providing recreational facilities in wet weather or in the cooler evenings. It has double French doors opening out onto a terrace overlooking the gardens, there is a single bedroom above and it is heated by electrical heating. It currently sports a full-sized table tennis table and there is ample room for storage of any sports equipment. There is no mains water in this building. Note: Subject to planning permission this building could be enlarged to provide further accommodation.

Part of the grounds have been planted with specimen trees including the hill which the Chateau overlooks, and a small bridge leads over a natural stream which runs into a larger stream at the bottom of the property.

The extensive grounds provide complete privacy approached via wrought iron gates leading from a country road. A winding gravel driveway leads up to the property and offers ample parking for several cars in front of the main Chateau and Annex.

Both the Chateau and Annex have separate oil-fired central heating, septic tank drainage, mains electricity and mains water.

The vendors will leave the property fully equipped including furniture, appliances, fixtures and fittings and garden ornaments.
