This traditional stone house, has been carefully restored to expose the lovely beams and stonework. Set in 60 acres of land shared with the main house (occupied by the owners), together with several barns and outbuildings. The houses are so oriented and positioned as to retain maximum privacy and independence.
Approached by a driveway from a very minor road used mainly by residents, the house is set in a tranquil spot in wonderful countryside.
This is pleasant walking and, providing you are fit, good cycling country - bicycles can be hired either in Villeneuve or in St. Sylvestre (near Penne).
The property lies about 4km south of the River Lot and Penne d'Agenais, a village fortified by Richard the Lionheart of England.
The village, which has been nicely restored, is home to a number of artisans, as well as having a shop, a bakery and several restaurants, together with a swimming lake and tennis courts.
Penne is about 10km E. of Villeneuve-sur-Lot.
As the house is set on a plateau on the edge of an escarpment, there are delightful and extensive views over the hills and valley below from part of the garden and one of the living room windows.
The terrain allows for the spectacular siting of the pool, which appears to be cascading over the edge into the valley below.
A delight at any time, and wonderful on a misty morning [shown below].

Entrance Hall. Lovely Living/Dining/Kitchen with exposed beams and stonework.
