Overview
This property enjoys a prime location just minutes from the medieval village of Montcuq, a historic village with strong tourist appeal, and along the Camino de Santiago. Accessed via a charming gravel driveway, the views extend over lush valleys of green oak woods and sunflower fields. The surrounding sunlit hills provide a sense of retreat and tranquility while remaining close to local amenities.
The castle retains strong marks of its history: arrow slits, carved stone fireplaces, and ancient doors. The thick walls made of local limestone, with time-worn plaster, testify to a noble construction that blends rusticity with grandeur. The whole structure rests on a vaulted base that houses cellars, a pantry, and service rooms.
Inside, the reception rooms offer beautiful volumes: lounges adorned with terracotta tiles (36m²), restored original fireplaces, and traditional ceilings (height 3.5M). The entrance hall opens onto a majestic stone staircase that leads to the upper floors where the kitchen, living room, large lounge, and 6 bedrooms, each with its own shower room and a view of the park, are located. Heritage materials: stone staircase, terracotta tiles in the kitchen, exposed beams, blend with contemporary touches for refined comfort.
The estate includes traditional outbuildings: a stone barn, a guest house, and a bread oven. The park, structured yet free, combines tree-lined gardens, ancient centennial trees, a stone terrace, low walls, and walking paths along the stream that borders the property. A well-integrated swimming pool, a terrace ideal for relaxation, and meadows complete the picture.
This is a property that breathes history: whether as a primary or secondary residence, or for hosting projects (guest rooms, events), anything is possible. The light of Quercy, the softness of the seasons, the balance between space and intimacy: all contribute to making this place an authentic and inspiring refuge.
