Enter into a large foyer through the two massive solid oak doors with wrought iron fixtures you find a beautiful circular stairway on the left that leads up to the upper levels. The bespoke gourmet commercial sized kitchen with huge lovely old stone fireplace is situated on the right through two antique oak doors.
The kitchen has a large commercial gas and electric cooker with double oven and hotplate, situated within the grand 'château' style fireplace. There is a large double door fridge with icemaker, separate wine fridge, and a stunning three-meter marble centre island. The counters are custom made stainless steel. Off the kitchen is the laundry and utility room with extra large 17kg washing machine and dryer, utility sink, and extensive cupboards.
To the left of the entrance is a ground floor bedroom with a double bed and en-suite within the room with shower, sink, and WC. Through the bedroom are two large storage rooms with extensive shelving. A separate WC is located in the foyer across from the kitchen.
Continuing through the foyer, two beautiful oak doors lead to the exceptionally luminous living room area which houses a lovely Napoleonic Black Marble open fireplace. There are electric shutters on all windows that face out onto the rear grounds where the pool, entertainment area, and raised gazebo are situated. Fast fibre Wi-Fi and Sat TV connections are located in the room. The rear grounds can be reached through double French doors from the living room. To the left of the living room area is the very large dining room that is entered by two solid oak doors. Lovely paneling surrounds the room and there are glass fronted cupboards and a huge 12 seat dining table.
Ascending the magnificent oak circular stairway with sisal runner and iron railings you arrive at a large landing and hallway. Off the landing you will find four beautifully renovated bedrooms, and new en-suite bathrooms. With 3m high ceilings, the spacious bedrooms are all flooded with natural light. Custom high end woven wool carpeting covers this entire floor, making the bedrooms very cosy.
The master bedroom has extensive built-in closets and has an ensuite with floor to ceiling tiles, a beautiful 'egg' bath, stunning chrome tap ware, a double sized walk-in shower with large rain showerhead, two single sinks, and a WC.
There are two further large bedrooms with their private ensuite shower and WC rooms. There is also a smaller bedroom on this level.
The beautiful oak staircase continues to the top level with a cosy open landing area. To the left is a door leading to a large open hallway with two bedrooms and an open plan entertainment/cinema room. A further separate double bedroom and ensuite bathroom are located on this level along with a storage room, and access to the two undeveloped tower rooms.
The landscaped grounds of just under half an acre (1600m2) are completely private and there is an in ground heated salt water pool with a new liner, heater/cooler unit, and salt water system. There is a raised decked gazebo, raised deck barbecue area, and a tiled area around the pool.
There are two large wrought iron gates leading to the rear lane next to the old church which could be used for off-road parking. The front of the property has two large wrought iron gates that lead up a stone pathway to the front entrance. There is a side entrance with video intercom, and there are also two garden sheds and a well.
The garage can be reached from within the grounds of the property and by the street garage doors. There is ample room for parking and lots of storage. Through the garage leads to a vaulted cellar, perfect for further storage, and to your very own wine cellar.
The château is being sold completely furnished. It is turn key and needs no work. The sale will include not simply the furniture, but linens, dinner wear, pots and pans, utensils, appliances, decor, pool furniture, even bins! All you need to bring is your toothbrush.
The château is on the Richard the Lionheart route, and Santiago de Compostelle route, and built into the external wall of the chateau grounds is an 800 + year old font. It is within walking distance to bakeries, shops, bars, restaurants, a health spa, and also the Castles of Chalus-Maulmont and Chalus Chabrol.
The city of Limoges with its airport (direct flights to UK) and fast train links to Paris is only 30 minutes away, making this a perfect place as a permanent residence, holiday house, or to resurrect the previous holiday letting business to earn an income.
It is on the border with the Dordogne and close to Brantome and Perigueux and within easy driving distance to the wine regions of Bergerac, Saint Emilion and Bordeaux.
