The property sits within mature grounds of just under 6,500m2 / 1.6 acres, with established trees and open views across the surrounding countryside.

To the rear of the house is a covered terrace overlooking the 10m x 5m swimming pool, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining during the warmer months.

There is also a garage, a well, ample parking and plenty of space for gardening or further landscaping projects.

Location

The property is situated on the edge of a village with a bakery, it's just a short drive from the lively bastide town of Monsegur. Known for its attractive central square, weekly market, cafes and summer events, Monsegur is one of the most appealing small towns in this part of south-west France.

The surrounding Entre-Deux-Mers region is characterised by rolling vineyards, historic villages and quiet country lanes, making it particularly popular with walkers, cyclists and wine enthusiasts. The area offers a relaxed pace of life while remaining well connected.

The world-famous vineyards of Saint-Émilion are within easy reach, while Bordeaux, with its international airport, restaurants and cultural attractions, can be reached in around an hour. Bergerac Airport is approximately 45 minutes away.

For buyers seeking a traditional country property in a peaceful setting, with plenty of character and excellent access to some of the region's most attractive towns and wine-growing landscapes, this is an area with enduring appeal.
