About this property

Restored Equestrian Longère with Land

Set within nearly 10 acres of post-and-rail paddocks in the Périgord Regional Natural Park, this beautifully restored longère offers approximately 3,500 sq ft of living space, together with a renovated one-bedroom second house. The peaceful, private setting is screened from the minor lane by a substantial wall and large double wooden gates. The property also has historical significance as a former principal house of the village.

The main house has six bedrooms, including rooms currently used as a gym and office, and four bathrooms across the property, with scope to add a further bathroom. Its well-proportioned ground floor includes a 6m x 6m formal sitting room, a 6m x 4m family room opening onto the fully fitted open-plan kitchen, a 6m x 3.5m dining room, a small office, entrance vestibule, laundry and larder room, and a ground-floor bathroom. Triple-glazed doors and windows were installed throughout in 2021 and are covered by a 20-year guarantee.

The separate house has a bedroom, a ground-floor sitting room, entrance hall, bathroom and its own patio, providing useful accommodation for guests or family. A large barn, two very large stables and a restored pigeonnier, now used as a tack room, support the equestrian facilities. Water is available to the fields, and excellent outriding can be accessed directly from the property boundaries.

The grounds include a large vegetable garden, an orchard with mirabelles, plums and apples, and a well-maintained garden and courtyard. An arbour provides space for outdoor dining, alongside a comfortable seating area. The property may be purchased fully furnished, with quality furnishings included in the asking price.

The nearest village, around 4km away, has three bakeries, a doctor, pharmacy and primary school. Nontron, approximately 13km away, offers collège and lycée, with school transport available. A public swimming lake around 4km from the property has a small beach, café, canoeing, golf, archery, boules, a fitness trail and a restaurant. Angoulême is approximately 25km away and Périgueux around 28km; Limoges Airport is about an hour by car, while Bergerac Airport is approximately an hour and a half.

Located in the northern Dordogne, near Nontron, the property combines a rural setting and direct access to the surrounding countryside with village services and regional towns within practical reach.
