Property Details
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
FULL DESCRIPTION
Village property with all the extras!
Discreetly tucked away behind elegant stone walls and wrought-iron gates, in the very heart of the thriving town of Puy-l'Évêque, this magnificent stone house dating from the 1870s is the kind of property that makes passersby slow down and invent reasons to linger. Just steps from the bustling local market, cafes, and every conceivable amenity, it is the epitome of Lot Valley living—where a car might well become entirely superfluous, except perhaps for the occasional excursion into the countryside.
A substantial and characterful period residence, the property includes a charming detached guest house, a double garage, ample off-street parking, workshops, and magnificent south-facing landscaped gardens with enchanting views over the rooftops of the old town. There is even the potential to create a further self-contained apartment should one wish to embrace multigenerational living or a lucrative rental business.
The main house is gloriously authentic, brimming with the rich patina that only time can create. A beautiful stone staircase leads to a delightful terrace—the perfect spot for morning coffee, quiet people-watching, or simply admiring the daily life unfolding in the town below.
Inside, the house unfolds with equal warmth and grandeur: a magnificent entrance hall, elegant living rooms with original fireplaces, antique parquet flooring, exposed beams, and built-in bookcases, all evoking stories of a bygone era. The comfortable dining room opens through French doors onto the terrace, while the rustic country kitchen, with its pantry and laundry room, seems ready for long lunches, good wine, and slightly over-enthusiastic dinners.
The property currently offers three charming bedrooms, as well as an office with a private rooftop terrace, elegant bathrooms with freestanding bathtubs, and an easily convertible attic offering exciting additional potential. Naturally, there's also the indispensable workshop—because every great French house deserves one.
The separate two-bedroom guest house is equally appealing, with an open-plan living area, a fitted kitchen, an original staircase, and a splendid Godin wood-burning stove at its heart. A connecting door to the main house allows for complete flexibility: independent guest accommodation, seasonal rental income, or simply a place to welcome family when they announce they are 'just dropping by for a few days.' The property benefits from oil-fired central heating.
Outside, the mature south-facing gardens include small vegetable patches, well-established vegetation, and a charming stone outbuilding with a covered terrace overlooking the town — an idyllic setting for summer dinners, evening drinks, or for pretending you've finally retired to write that novel.
A rare opportunity to acquire a truly atmospheric and versatile home in one of the most picturesque and sought-after bastides in the Lot where life follows its quiet course, where lunches are taken seriously and where beauty reveals itself at every turn.
