---

Set on a hillside in the Bordeaux hinterland, this 19th-century barn has been reimagined by an architect into something that most properties of its kind never become: genuinely finished. The renovation is complete, confident, and coherent — raw stone and exposed timber brought into conversation with clean modern lines, oversized glazing, and a considered material palette. The result is a house that feels simultaneously ancient and entirely of now.

The main house extends across 330 square metres arranged around a double-height living space with ceilings reaching eight metres. Exposed beams span the full width. A large open fireplace anchors one end of the room, and the kitchen runs the length of the opposite wall — fully equipped, integrated into the architecture rather than placed within it. Upstairs, the master suite occupies the mezzanine level with a private bathroom and views over the surrounding landscape.

The guesthouse — a separate 120 square metre structure — provides two large suites, each with an en-suite bathroom, opening onto a shared lounge. It functions independently, which gives the property genuine flexibility: private overflow accommodation for family, a rental unit with its own front door, or a creative studio. The two buildings work together without crowding each other.

Outside, the 1.5 hectare plot borders a forest on one side and opens to panoramic vineyard views on the other. Three terraces step down from the main house; a covered dining terrace handles meals through nine months of the year. The swimming pool measures 17 by 5 metres. The level of privacy is absolute — no neighbour in sight, no road noise, no intrusion.

Location

The property sits between Bordeaux and Bergerac, ten minutes from the Dordogne river and thirty minutes from Saint-Émilion. The village centre — shops, a doctor, a pharmacy — is five minutes by car. Bordeaux is under an hour. The surrounding area is among the most established wine regions in the world, with a landscape of rolling hills, river valleys, and medieval villages that draws visitors year-round. The combination of rural isolation and genuine connectivity is rare in this part of France, and is a significant part of what makes this address work as both a primary residence and a high-yield rental asset.
