Overview
Nestled in the undulating hills of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, where golden light spills through centuries-old oaks, this exquisite château stands as a guardian of elegance and tranquility. Here, within 12 private hectares of whispering woodland, sun-dappled meadows, and a mirror-still lake, time moves to the rhythm of rustling leaves and the distant song of birds—never hurried, never loud.
The manor house, a symphony of refined proportions, unfolds with the grace of a bygone era. Step through the grand hall, where the air hums with the quiet promise of gatherings yet to come, and into the **library (38m²)**, its shelves waiting to cradle a connoisseur’s collection. Adjacent, the **music room (37m²)** breathes with the potential for sonatas and soirées, its acoustics as rich as the history woven into its walls. A **study**, intimate and contemplative, offers solace for the thinker or the dreamer, while the **ground-floor bedroom (14.4m²)**—tucked away with its en-suite shower—invites rest beneath windows framed by climbing roses.

At the heart of the home, the **dining room (40m²)** beckons with space for lavish feasts, its ambiance warmed by candlelight and the aroma of herbs from the **orchard** just beyond the terrace. The **kitchen (37.5m²)**, a blend of heritage charm and modern purpose, flows seamlessly into the scullery and laundry—every detail designed for effortless living. Ascend the staircase, its treads worn smooth by generations, to discover **seven en-suite bedrooms** on the first floor, each a sanctuary of understated luxury, averaging **20m²** of serene space. The second floor reveals six more chambers, a shared bathroom, and the hushed potential of the attic—where slanted ceilings might one day cradle a writer’s retreat or an artist’s studio.
Beyond the château’s embrace, the land unfurls like a living tapestry: the **lake**, a silver jewel reflecting the sky; the **orchard**, heavy with fruit in season; the **pond**, where dragonflies dance at dusk. A **gîte** stands nearby, offering guests or staff their own haven, while the **outbuildings** promise space for passions—be it a vintage car collection, a studio, or simply the joy of storage without constraint.

Uzerche, a village steeped in medieval charm, lies just beyond the estate’s borders, its cobbled streets and riverside cafés a gentle reminder that while this château is a world unto itself, the vibrant soul of France is never far. Here, between the **cellar’s** cool depths and the **boiler room’s** modern efficiency, between the wild beauty of the **woodland** and the cultivated grace of the **meadows**, a rare alchemy exists: a home that is both a legacy and a beginning, a place where every sunrise feels like the first page of a story yet to be written.
For those who seek not just a property, but a **sanctuary of time and space**, where the past’s elegance meets the present’s comfort—this is where the search ends, and the living begins.
