Brimming with historic character and set in a commanding position, this former 12th-century stone building offers a rare combination of space, flexibility, and development potential. Whether you are looking to create a large family residence with guest accommodation, launch a gîte business, or restore a heritage home in the south of France, this property offers a fantastic canvas for your vision.
Currently divided into three separate dwellings—each with private access—the layout allows for various configurations, such as one main home and two gîtes, or a multi-generational setup. The property has not been lived in for some time and does require some renovation, but its charm, setting, and scale make it a unique opportunity.
Set on a 4,190 m2 wooded plot with a pool, the home enjoys full south-facing exposure and a lovely view of the garden and trees.
