In the heart of Périgord Pourpre, near Bergerac and its airport, sits an isolated fortified house surrounded by 18 hectares of meadows and woods, along with a renovated cottage. This property is located in a rural area, nestled in the center of a vast meadow protected by woods, with the ancient ruins of a medieval horse relay built adjacent to an old Roman road. A long dirt path running along the forest leads to an agricultural shed and the residential buildings. The fortified house, with its sturdy structure, features a lower ground floor and a garden level facing a terrace to accommodate the slope of the land. Originally a rectangular building dating back to the Middle Ages with defensive elements, the property expanded into a more square-shaped plan with an extension to the east doubling its size. The oldest part is constructed with rubble stone and topped with a hipped tile roof, adorned with a turret and a square tower topped with pavilion roofs and built with dressed stone - matching the stone used for window frames and corner chains. The newer section has plastered facades and a roof similar to the older part. The former barn, recently converted into a self-contained cottage with its own entrance, is accompanied by a terrace and garage. Between the two residences are old pigsties currently used as storage space. A stream separates the included parcels from the additional 20 hectares of woodland offered as an option. The price of 725,000 for this unique property reflects its historical significance, privacy, and the expansive land it sits on. The combination of ancient ruins, renovated living spaces, and vast acres of meadows and woods make it a rare find in the Bergerac area. This property offers the opportunity for a truly one-of-a-kind retreat in the serene countryside of Périgord Pourpre.
