Property Details
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
FULL DESCRIPTION
Tucked behind a discreet stone gateway in the heart of Issigeac, one of the most picturesque and historically rich villages in south-west France, this beautifully restored medieval property offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the best of authentic French village life. Bathed in sunlight and full of character, the property features a private south-facing garden—an extremely rare asset within the village walls—and a spacious, elegant interior that combines historical charm with modern comfort.
The location is fantastic. Issigeac is a thriving medieval village in the Dordogne, celebrated for its vibrant Sunday market, winding cobbled lanes, artisan shops and lively restaurants. Steeped in history dating back to Roman times, the village forms part of the famed Perigord Pourpre and sits amidst an enchanting landscape of bastides, chateaux, vineyards and rivers. The surrounding area is a treasure trove of heritage, from prehistoric caves and medieval warfare to the Resistance of the Second World War, with cultural day trips possible to Bordeaux, St Emilion, Sarlat and Bergerac.
Behind the gate, a peaceful and very private garden provides the perfect setting for outdoor living, complete with a shaded dining pavilion and a terrace ideal for quiet afternoons under the maple tree. Step inside the house to find a cool, stone-floored living space filled with character: French doors open onto the garden, light floods through south-facing windows, and original features such as limestone walls, ancient beams and a grand open fireplace create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The ground floor has been laid out with both comfort and style in mind, with a well-equipped kitchen and bar area flowing into a dining room designed for entertaining. Decorated in period style, yet furnished with every modern convenience, the interiors blend antique details with contemporary touches in a way that feels timeless and effortlessly elegant.
Upstairs, a hand-crafted wooden staircase leads to four beautifully presented double bedrooms, three of which have en-suite facilities. Each room features exposed beams, high ceilings and soft lighting, offering a calm and restful ambiance. A small study and reading area opens onto a Juliet balcony—a peaceful spot to take in the surrounding village rooftops or catch up on correspondence. High-speed internet and telephone services are available throughout.
Lovingly restored and maintained, the house has been run for over a decade as a short-term holiday rental (a future owner would need to obtain necessary permission and appropriate business registration) and is now offered fully furnished (subject to conditions) and equipped, providing a true turnkey opportunity and there is also a possibility of purchasing a garage too. Whether as a permanent home, a second residence or a lifestyle investment, it represents a rare chance to acquire a historic property of real quality in a thriving and welcoming community.
For those seeking a home that reflects the charm, culture and rhythm of life in rural France, this is a place where history, authenticity and comfort come together effortlessly.
