An elegant, formal house set in landscaped grounds of over 2 acres and with lovely views, within easy reach of a popular small town. The property has been beautifully renovated and there is scope to develop the outbuildings to create a gite or extra accommodation.
This is an immensely attractive and elegant stone house dating from the early nineteenth century, and in excellent condition inside and out.
It has lots of space: the reception rooms are large and airy, with high ceilings and tall windows letting in plenty of light. The kitchen is spacious, well planned and again with good ceiling height. On the first floor there are two large double bedrooms and one smaller one, plus a large bathroom and separate lavatory. There is also an attic room of 25m2 which could be converted to give more living space. Oil-fired central heating keeps the house warm in the cooler months.
The very well maintained grounds extend to about 9000m2 (approximately 2 acres) and include a summerhouse with a verandah, an ancient well, and an 11m x 6m swimming pool. There is an outbuilding of about 65m2 which could be developed as extra living accommodation for family or guests or even as a separate gite.
The countryside is a patchwork of tranquil woods, low hills and vineyards dotted with historic chteaux: Monbazillac for example, a fine chteau where splendid sweet wines are made, is about 20 km away. Sauvetat-du-Dropt itself is a small village near Eymet, a grey stone-walled bastide town (well, large village, really) which, apart from all the lovely half-timbered houses within its walls, also provides all the shops and services for your everyday needs. All of this lovely architecture sits in a bowl of woods in the valley of the River Dropt. (By the way, the annual river festival, held in August, is not to be missed.)
There is a reasonable sized British population here and even a British town councillor, elected largely, it is said, by French voters, as many of the British residents have not assumed their voting rights. Here is a great success story for Anglo-French relations which the politicians would do well to observe and emulate. Apparently, everyone is happily integrated, the British presence having helped to rejuvenate the village with shops and restaurants remaining open all year and schools flourishing with their increased Anglophone intake.
Air travel links with the UK are excellent: Bergerac (about 25 km away) has budget flights, particularly in summer, from eight UK airports. Road links are reasonable to Bordeaux and thence to the motorway network.
