Set on the river bank overlooking the old arched bridge leading into the village, this stately property has a warm honey-colored stone façade. It features spacious grounds including an expansive lawn, a variety of tall trees, flowering shrubs and plants. Stairs from a graveled terrace with dining furniture by the house lead to the pretty swimming pool. And there are two more informal outdoor dining areas: one under a large tree by the pool and the other at the river's edge taking full advantage of the lovely view to the old stone bridge.

Inside, the house has been beautifully restored and renovated using the highest quality building materials. Traditional architectural features - exposed stone walls, wood-beamed ceilings and terra cotta tile floors - complement a combination of stylish furnishings and warm antique pieces. Topping off the property are all appliances, and a full range of amenities, including a Bose music system and high-speed internet access.

Entry is into the spacious living-dining room with open-plan kitchen at one end. Grouped by the old stone fireplace is a gracious sitting area with an upholstered sofa, easy chairs and a small wood coffee table. Occasional tables and lamps are warm accents to this comfortable space. In the middle of the room is the dining area with farm table and chairs for 6 people. A half-wall separates the dining area from the fully-equipped kitchen with all appliances, pale sea green cabinets and ample granite counters. Vaulted stone-framed windows in the sitting area and kitchen add to the atmosphere of this appealing room. And large French doors open from the dining room to the terraces and grounds. Also on the entry level are a laundry room and toilet facilities.

There are a total of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all upstairs off a landing. One of the bedrooms is a master suite with full bathroom. Two additional bedrooms share a large bathroom on the corridor. All of the bedrooms overlook the garden and pool and have hardwood floors. They are beautifully decorated with pretty bedcovers, curtains, chests, bedside tables and lamps. The bathrooms are fully tiled and feature fine ceramic fixtures.

A home with tremendous atmosphere in an exceptional setting in the heart of the Dordogne.

*Note: in low and mid seasons, the property is available at a reduced rate for up to 4 people. Unfenced river frontage may not be suitable for small children.
