Situated in the heart of the Dordogne region, a place often revered for its rich history and vibrant culture, this property lies in the midst of rolling hills and lush forests.

With its expansive 8-hectare allotment of land, including a mix of woods and meadows, the property is crossed by a tranquil river complete with its own millrace, offering a serene setting and untapped potential. The main house covers an impressive 240 square meters, with sturdy bones waiting for a touch of creativity and renovation to breathe life into its walls again.

Here, the harmony of wood and light offers a comforting embrace, telling you you've truly arrived home after a long day.

The second floor also boasts four bedrooms, ranging from approximately 11 to 18 square meters. Each space waits quietly for its next chapter, perhaps as sanctuaries for the children or cozy guest quarters. Additionally, the attic holds an extra room of around 13.5 square meters, which could easily serve as an inspiring office space or even a potential fifth bedroom.

Given its condition, the house is a subtle canvas, ripe for restoration. Those with a penchant for home improvement will find the character of this mill an inviting project. With several annexes totaling approximately 250 square meters, the possibilities are endless—be it for extra storage, a studio, or other creative endeavors.

Life in Molières offers a unique blend of tranquility and cultural richness. Known for its warm and temperate climate, the area enjoys mild winters and delightfully warm summers, making it an ideal place for outdoor activities. From Lalinde and Buisson de Cadouin just a short 10-minute drive away, you can immerse yourself in charming French markets, gastronomic delights, and historical explorations.

For families, the surrounding area is an education haven with good local schools, while the community spirit is welcoming and vibrant. There are also ample opportunities for hiking, cycling, and water activities. The Dordogne River is nearby, a favorite spot for kayaking and canoeing.

This house for sale in Bergerac, Dordogne, has four bedrooms, a heated saltwater pool and an 1870 core extended in 1998. It sits in a residential area east of town, so you get the Périgord countryside without giving up the restaurants and markets of Bergerac itself. The plot is small enough to look after from a distance and big enough that the pool feels private. That balance is rarer than it sounds, and it is what makes this a practical home for people who want to be away part of the year. ### The House: 1870 Origins and a 1998 Extension The oldest part of the house dates from 1870 and still looks it, in the best way. There is an antique fireplace, exposed beams and the kind of thick-walled rooms that stay calm on a hot afternoon. The 1998 extension changed the balance of the house. It brought in more daylight, along with insulation, air conditioning and a sanitation system described as compliant, which are the details buyers of older French houses usually want to check first. Inside you have 146 m² of living space and four bedrooms, two of them on the ground floor. That layout helps if you are hosting parents or friends who prefer to avoid stairs. There is one bathroom, which is worth knowing if you plan to fill all four bedrooms at once. The house is in good condition, so the first summer can be spent using it rather than organising builders. The large living room is the centre of the house. The antique fireplace has an insert, so winter evenings are covered, and the room opens straight onto the pool area. ### Heated Saltwater Pool and 770 m² of Garden The pool is heated and uses salt rather than heavy chemical dosing. Step out of the living room and you are at the water's edge, with no long walk across the law ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Fondettes sits on a 1,000 m² garden, a few minutes from Tours and the banks of the Loire. It is a 1970s home in good condition, with three bedrooms and two shower rooms spread over two levels. The address is what makes it work. You get a quiet residential street, shops, schools and public transport close by, and the city of Tours on your doorstep. Few places this near a Loire Valley city come with a garden of this size. ### A 3-Bedroom House in Fondettes, Touraine The main floor has about 86 m² of living space and is air-conditioned. The living room is roughly 25 m² and has an insert fireplace, so evenings in the cooler months are sorted. The kitchen is fitted. There are two bedrooms, a shower room with natural light and a separate WC. The lower level opens onto the garden and adds a lot of flexibility. It holds a third bedroom with its own shower room. Use it for guests, as a home office, or as a self-contained space for a family member or a teenager who wants some independence. There is also an enclosed veranda, designed to accommodate a platform lift. If you are thinking about long-term living, or buying for parents who may need easier access between levels, that detail matters and is hard to add later. ### The Garden, Cellar and Garage The plot is about 1,000 m², a generous size for a house this close to Tours. The garden level gives direct access outside, so the lower bedroom and the lawn work as one space in summer. Below the house you will find a cellar and a garage. The cellar suits wine, tools and seasonal storage, and the garage means you do not have to leave the car on the street. If you plan to use the house as a second home in France, storage like this makes locking up and leav ... click here to read more

This 17th-century granite house for sale in Josselin, Morbihan, has 420 m² of living space and nine bedrooms, including five former guesthouse suites. The house stands about ten minutes from Josselin, with its riverside castle and half-timbered lanes, and roughly 30 km from Vannes. It was built for a local notable, and the stonework shows it: granite rubble walls, carved stone details, heavy wooden beams and big open fireplaces. Over the years it has also run as a guesthouse. That history gives you a layout with real flexibility, whether you want one very large family home or a house with separate guest quarters. ### The House and Its 1,203 m² Garden The main building is split into two distinct parts. The ground-floor wing is laid out as five suites, three of them duplexes, each with its own entrance. Guests or extended family can come and go without crossing the main living areas. A separate reception room has a large stone fireplace, handy for a long table at Christmas or a breakfast room if you ever return to hosting. The upper, manor-style part of the house is where you would live day to day. It has a very large eat-in kitchen, fitted and equipped, with a pantry and a laundry area. Next to it is a spacious living room with a big fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. In a Breton winter, that is where everyone ends up. An old turret has been converted into a patio overlooking the garden. It is the spot for morning coffee while the mist lifts off the lawn. The plot is 1,203 m², which is enough for a terrace, a vegetable bed and space for children, but still easy to look after. ### Living Near Josselin, Morbihan Josselin is one of inland Brittany's best-known small towns. The château rises directly above the ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Bléré is a 19th-century Touraine farmhouse with a 40 m² cathedral-ceilinged living room and a vaulted cellar. It stands on an enclosed 398 m² plot near the village of La Croix-en-Touraine, in Indre-et-Loire. Small outbuildings share the garden, and every ground-floor living space opens onto a sunny terrace. ### A Touraine Farmhouse for Sale near Bléré Built in the 19th century, the house keeps the proportions you expect from a traditional Touraine farmhouse, and the data lists its condition as good. The plot is fully enclosed. That matters if you travel with a dog or children, or if you simply want to lock up and leave between visits. The small outbuildings in the garden are useful for tools, bikes and firewood. Check their state and permitted use during a viewing. The location is quiet, yet the shops and services of Bléré are close. For anyone looking for a second home in France without the crowds of the coast, that balance is hard to find. ### Inside the House: Layout and Light You come in through an entrance hall with a built-in wardrobe. The kitchen is large, fitted and equipped, and it opens straight onto the terrace. Morning coffee outside means carrying a cup through the door. The main room is the living and dining space, about 40 m² under a cathedral ceiling, with parquet flooring and a wood-burning stove. Above it, a mezzanine adds roughly 20 m² of extra space, enough for a desk or a small library. Also on the ground floor are a bedroom with French doors, a separate office, a bathroom with both a bathtub and a walk-in shower, a WC and a small utility room. The attic floor holds two more bedrooms and a WC off the landing. That makes three bedrooms in all, one of them on the ground fl ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Corrèze has five bedrooms, a large pool and a fishing lake across the road in the village of Saint-Pardoux-Corbier. It stands on 5,480 m² of grounds and offers 181 m² of living space, three bathrooms and a three-car carport. The condition is good and the kitchen is newly fitted, so the work here is mostly about moving in and unpacking the suitcases. ### A 5-Bedroom House in the Limousin Countryside Start in the kitchen. It is spacious and newly fitted, with a large utility room next to it that keeps laundry and muddy boots out of the main living space. The lounge opens onto a terrace, so doors can stay open on summer evenings and the room spills outside naturally. One bedroom is on the ground floor, with its own en-suite bathroom containing a jacuzzi bath and a separate shower. That suits grandparents, guests, or anyone who would rather not climb stairs at the end of the day. A cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs there are four more bedrooms and a family bathroom, plus a balcony. One of the upstairs rooms is large enough to be converted into a self-contained apartment or guest suite. Certain kitchen units and appliances are available for it, and there is a separate access if you want to go that way. Any conversion is your call, and it is worth checking requirements with the local mairie before planning works. ### Pool, Outdoor Dining and 5,480 m² of Grounds The large swimming pool is the centre of the garden. Beside it is a substantial outdoor dining area that seats eight, which is the sort of detail that decides where lunch happens from May to September. A three-car carport covers the vehicles, which matters in a rural area where nobody arrives by bus. The grounds are spacious an ... click here to read more

This renovated house for sale in Amboise sits at the foot of the Château d'Amboise, with a direct view of the castle and shops one minute away. It has four bedrooms, a private courtyard and 140 m² of living space. Most people who fall for Amboise do it on foot, and this house suits that. Step out of the front door and you are a minute from the shops, restaurants and schools, yet the street itself is quiet. Look up and the château fills the view. That combination is hard to find in a Loire Valley town where visitors crowd the centre in summer. ### A Renovated Character House Below the Château The house is historic, but it has been completely renovated, using eco-friendly materials. The work included insulation and fresh paintwork, so the rooms stay comfortable in both summer and winter. That matters in an old house, and it means a buyer can move in without a long building project ahead. The renovation kept the original details. You will find antique Versailles parquet floors, terracotta tiles, exposed beams, stone and brick walls, old woodwork, stained glass and a glass roof. None of it looks staged. These are the features that make a Loire townhouse feel like one. ### Room by Room The ground floor starts with an entrance hall that sets the tone. Beyond it is a double living and dining room under exposed beams, which opens onto the courtyard. On a warm evening you can leave the doors open and eat outside. The kitchen is fitted and equipped, with a pantry next to it, and there is a separate hallway and a WC. Upstairs, a bright landing leads to two bedrooms with Versailles parquet flooring, a dressing room, a bathroom and a separate WC. The second floor is the attic level. It has its own landing and hallway and two f ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Dordogne stands on 7,500 m² of enclosed wooded grounds, a short walk from the centre of Piégut-Pluviers. It is a 1930s house of about 180 m² with three bedrooms, completely renovated in 2022. Most properties in this part of France make you choose. You get village life with neighbours on both sides, or you get seclusion with a ten-minute drive for bread. Here the shops and services are within walking distance, yet the garden is fenced, planted with trees and private. From the terrace the view runs out over the treetops of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park. ### The 1930s House, Renovated in 2022 The house dates from the 1930s and offers roughly 180 m² of living space. The renovation in 2022 was complete, and the aim was to bring in modern comforts without losing the proportions and character of the original building. For a buyer, that is the point that matters most. The heavy work has been done, so you can spend your first summer using the house instead of managing a building site. There are three bedrooms and one bathroom, which suits a couple with guests or a small family. If you hope to host more people, the size of the house and plot leaves room to think about how you might use the space, though any alteration would of course need the usual checks. Outside, there is a balcony as well as the terrace. That gives you a choice between morning coffee in the sun and an evening drink looking into the trees. The condition is good, and the character of a 1930s house is still there. It is a different experience from a stone farmhouse, with a more formal shape and generous proportions. ### The 7,500 m² Wooded Grounds A plot of 7,500 m² is large by any standard, and it is rare to find one th ... click here to read more

This five-bedroom house for sale in Saint-Cyprien, Dordogne, sits on almost 5,000 m² of land with open views across the valley. Built in 1995 in the local Périgord style, it offers 174 m² of living space on two floors above a full basement, and the village shops are only a few minutes away. For a family home or a second home in France, that combination of space, land and easy daily errands is hard to find at this size. ### The House and Its 4,903 m² Plot You enter through a hall into a 42 m² living and dining room. An insert fireplace anchors the space, and a heat distribution system carries its warmth through the rest of the house, which counts for a lot during a Dordogne winter. The room opens onto a covered terrace facing the countryside, so breakfast outdoors in May works even if the weather turns. The kitchen measures 19 m², large enough to cook and eat in the same room. Also on the ground floor are a 13 m² bedroom, a family bathroom and a separate WC. That bedroom is handy for guests or relatives who would rather not climb stairs. Upstairs you find four more bedrooms of 12, 12, 14 and 19 m², plus a shower room and a second separate WC. Five bedrooms means two families can share the house without queuing for the one room they all want. The house has double glazing and enhanced insulation, and the condition is good. The full basement gives you storage or workshop space beneath the living areas. Outside, the plot of 4,903 m² is nearly half a hectare. That is plenty of room for privacy and a proper garden, but think about mowing and upkeep if you will be away for part of the year. ### Living in Saint-Cyprien and the Périgord Noir Saint-Cyprien lies on the Dordogne river in the Périgord Noir, between Sarlat-la-Ca ... click here to read more

House for sale in Var near Rougiers: a 3-bedroom semi-detached villa with a 484 m² garden, within walking distance of an 18-hole golf course. Built in 2002 and in good condition, it sits inside a gated residential park with its own pool and tennis courts. The asking price is €289,000, and the furniture is not included, though it can be negotiated separately. ### The Villa: Layout and Condition The house is semi-detached and arranged over two floors, with 92 m² of living space. That figure includes the integrated single garage, so the habitable area is a little smaller than the headline number. Plan around that if you are comparing it with other listings. You enter through a hall with a guest toilet. The living room and fitted kitchen share one open space on the ground floor, and French doors lead from there onto a sunny terrace and the garden. The master bedroom is also downstairs. It has its own French doors to the garden and an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub, washbasin and toilet. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a second bathroom with a shower. Both floors have tiled flooring, which keeps the house cool when the Provençal summer sets in. Heating is by electric radiators. The villa dates from 2002 and is in good condition, so this is a house to move into rather than a renovation project. ### The Garden and the Gated Park The 484 m² plot is landscaped and wraps around the house. For a semi-detached villa that is generous. There is room for a dining table under the open sky, and the master bedroom opens straight onto the garden. Views run towards the Massif de la Sainte-Baume, the rocky ridge that shapes the skyline here. The villa belongs to a secure, gated park with a shared swimming pool, tennis courts a ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Le Bugue, Dordogne, gives you two separate homes and an independent studio on more than 5,000 m² of land. Instead of one large house, you get a small family compound: a three-bedroom house on the garden side, a second single-storey home with a cathedral-ceilinged living room, and a studio down on the courtyard level. The setting is rural and quiet, yet the shops and services of Le Bugue are close enough that you are not planning your day around the car. Five bedrooms in total, good condition, and room to do more with the land. ### Two Houses and a Studio on One Plot The first house is the one that faces the garden. Downstairs there is a kitchen, a shower room with toilet, a utility room and a living room with a fireplace. That living room opens westward onto the garden, so it is the natural place for afternoon light and a winter fire. Upstairs you find three bedrooms, a wash area and a separate toilet. It suits a family or a group of friends who want their own sleeping space. The second house is arranged on one level. It has a fitted kitchen and a bright living and dining room with a cathedral ceiling and a wood stove. A hallway leads to a shower room and a separate toilet. The bedroom opens onto a covered terrace with views over the garden, which makes it a good spot for morning coffee whatever the weather. On the lower courtyard level sits the independent studio. It gives you a third, fully separate place to stay, whether for older children, visiting guests or a relative who likes their own front door. ### The Land: Over 5,000 m² With Building Potential The plot is a little over 5,000 m², and about two thirds of it is described as buildable. That is the detail that sets this house apart fr ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Amboise has five bedrooms, a 35 m² living room with fireplace and a 741 m² garden, close to schools and the town centre. It is a traditional detached home on a quiet residential street, in good condition, with room for a large family or for guests all summer. At €299,000 with agency fees included, five bedrooms and 187 m² of living space is hard to find this close to the Loire. ### The House: 187 m² and Five Bedrooms You come in through a wide entrance hall with a built-in cupboard and coat storage, which is useful when five people arrive at once with luggage. The main room on the ground floor is the living room, about 35 m². It has a fireplace fitted with an insert, so winter evenings have a focal point, and a glazed door that opens straight onto the terrace. The kitchen is fitted and equipped. A separate laundry room keeps the washing machine out of sight, and there is a WC on this floor as well. Upstairs are five large bedrooms, each with its own built-in wardrobe. That is the real strength of the layout. Nobody has to share, and a spare room can become an office without anyone losing a bed. The first floor also has a bathroom, a separate shower room and a second WC. With one bathroom listed in the data, it is worth checking how the sanitary spaces suit your household when you visit. ### Garden, Terrace and Light The plot measures 741 m² and the garden is partly planted with trees. The house faces south-east and north-west, so the morning sun reaches one side and the evening light the other. The terrace is well exposed, which makes it the natural spot for breakfast in spring and long dinners in June. A garage and a garden shed come with the property. Garden tools, bikes and a lawnmower ha ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Hautefort, Dordogne, offers eight bedrooms, a 70 m² reception room and a large barn on 3,890 m² for €259,000. The price has come down from €284,000 and the house is back on the market. It sits in Saint-Agnan, a village within the commune of Hautefort, close to everyday amenities. Few Dordogne properties at this price give you this much room to work with, whether you want a big family home, a second home in France or a guest-house project. ### The House: 309 m² with Eight Bedrooms The house is built in two parts. An older section keeps its original character, and a more recent part has been added alongside it. Together they give 309 m² of living space, eight bedrooms and two bathrooms. The condition is listed as good, so this is not a ruin waiting for a roof. The main reception room measures more than 70 m². That is the room where a large family gathers for a long Sunday lunch, or where guests would sit down together after a day out in the valley. With eight bedrooms and two bathrooms, anyone planning to host regularly will want to think about adding a bathroom. The layout gives you space to do that. ### Barn, Bread Oven and Garden Outside, there is a large barn with an open section, which gives you plenty of options for later development. A bread oven in perfect condition stands on the property, a feature most buyers only see in restoration projects. The agent also reports a well that never runs dry. The garden is planted with trees, and part of it is buildable. The data for this property lists a swimming pool and a waterfront setting, while the agent's text talks about the possibility of creating a pool. Please ask us to confirm both points before you plan a trip. The size and the barn als ... click here to read more

This restored 18th-century coaching inn is a three-bedroom house for sale in Corrèze, in the village of Segonzac, with a stone barn and 5,864 m² of land. Inside, a dining room fireplace and a multi-fuel stove in the living room set the tone for the 155 m² of living space. The restoration used quality natural materials and kept the character of the old building. The outbuildings give you room for projects of your own. ### Inside the Former Coaching Inn The ground floor is organised around the kitchen and dining room. The fitted kitchen opens straight onto the dining room, where a fireplace anchors the space. Think long lunches in autumn with the fire lit and the door to the garden left ajar. Next door, the living room has a multi-fuel fireplace, so winter evenings are covered. There are three bedrooms. The master has its own en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms share a separate shower room with WC, and there is also a second WC with a washbasin. A pantry takes care of storage for the kitchen. The windows are double-glazed aluminium, and fibre-optic internet is already installed. That matters if you plan to work remotely for part of the year. Above, the large attic is described as suitable for conversion. It could become extra bedrooms or a studio, subject to the usual structural checks and planning permission. ### Barn, Bread Oven and Vaulted Cellar on 5,864 m² The land is where this house stands apart from a typical village home. A 127 m² stone barn with a tiled roof stands nearby. It is a solid base for a workshop, covered storage, guest accommodation or a hobby space, depending on what you need and what permissions allow. Former stone pigsties of about 36 m² and a traditional bread oven add to the group of ... click here to read more

This 4-bedroom house for sale in Dordogne stands in Busserolles, minutes from Lake Grolhier, with 240 m² of living space and 7,300 m² of land. It is a stone house with a big fitted kitchen, a 54 m² living room and a quiet wooded plot inside the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park, priced at 336,200 EUR. The rooms are generous, the layout is easy to follow, and the grounds give you real privacy. Here is how it works day to day. ### The House: 240 m² of Stone, Beams and Chestnut Parquet You enter through a large, bright hall. To one side is the main living room, 54 m² with chestnut parquet, exposed beams and a fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. The stove also feeds the central heating, so on a cold Limousin-border evening it does the work of a boiler as well as being the focal point of the room. On the other side of the hall, a second room with its own wood-burning stove can serve as an office, a library or a small sitting room. The fitted kitchen measures 36 m² and opens straight onto an enclosed private courtyard. A pantry and a guest WC sit next to it. That is the layout for a long breakfast that turns into lunch. One bedroom is on the ground floor, next to a shower room with shower cubicle, washbasin and WC. That is handy for guests, for older relatives, or for anyone who would rather avoid stairs. Upstairs, the master suite covers about 34 m² and includes a dressing room and a private bathroom with bath, shower, washbasin and WC. Two further bedrooms and a family shower room complete the floor. The house has double glazing throughout. Besides the wood-fired heating, a reversible air-to-air heat pump provides heating in winter and cooling in summer. ### Outdoor Space: Courtyard, Terraces and 7,300 m ... click here to read more

This 4-bedroom house for sale in Charente sits a few minutes from La Rochefoucauld and gives you 210 m² of living space on a 1,128 m² plot. The village is Rouzède, a quiet commune in rolling countryside where the day starts with birdsong rather than traffic. The house is in good condition and priced at 263,700 EUR. Most of the bedrooms are on the ground floor, which makes it easy to live in all year round. It also works well as a second home you can lock up and leave. ### Inside the House: Four Bedrooms and a Mezzanine The main living room has large bay windows that open onto a covered terrace and the garden. In the evening you can switch to the lounge, where a fireplace with a wood-burning insert makes the room worth gathering in from autumn through spring. The kitchen is fully equipped and opens onto a large dining room, so whoever is cooking stays in the conversation. Three bedrooms are on the ground floor. The master suite has its own bathroom. There is also a family shower room and a separate WC. The fourth bedroom has an en-suite shower room, which suits visiting friends, grown-up children or paying guests who want some privacy. Upstairs, a mezzanine gives you a spot for reading or a desk for remote work, with the rest of the house still within earshot. ### Garden, Terrace and Jacuzzi The plot covers 1,128 m² and the private garden looks out over open views, with nothing built up in front of you. Coffee on the covered terrace is the obvious way to start a summer morning, and the property also has a balcony. A 6-person Jacuzzi is there for year-round use, and it is just as good on a cold January evening as in August. Solar panels were installed recently, which should help with running costs in a house of this ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Corrèze comes with a heated pool, two rented apartments and a 720 m² stable on 2.7 hectares near Pompadour. It is a working property rather than a quiet country cottage: a three-bedroom family house, two apartments already let, big stone outbuildings and room for horses, all on one detached plot in the Limousin countryside. ### A Rural Property with Rental Units Already in Place Most houses in this price range give you a roof and a garden. This one gives you a small estate. Besides the main house there are two separate two-room apartments, both currently rented out, so part of the property is already being used commercially. Anyone thinking about guest accommodation, a gîte-style business or a family compound will find the groundwork laid. The setting is detached, with meadow on every side. Don't expect neighbours looking over the hedge. Expect the sound of the paddock in the morning and a long drive back to the road in the evening. ### The Main House: 122 m² and Three Bedrooms The house itself is in good condition and has 122 m² of living space. Downstairs you come into an entrance hall, then a fitted kitchen and a large living room. There is also a separate office, which is useful now that so many buyers work remotely from their second home. A shower room with WC, a laundry room and a pantry complete the ground floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom with WC. The practical details matter here. Solar panels supply electricity to the property, fibre-optic internet is available, and the septic system is compliant. Those are the three things that most often cause trouble with rural French houses, and here they are already sorted. Outside, a 9 m by 4 m heated swimming pool with a cove ... click here to read more

This single-storey house for sale in Puymoyen sits at the end of a cul-de-sac, a few minutes from Angoulême, on a 1,630 m² plot that could be divided. Living on one level matters more than it sounds. There are no stairs to climb with the shopping, it suits older relatives, and it is easy to lock up and leave for a few weeks. At 131 m² this is a family-size home, and at €251,300 it comes with far more land than most houses near a city of this size. ### The House: 131 m² on One Level The living space is generous. A separate living room and a lounge mean one can be the everyday room while the other stays quiet for guests or evenings with a book. The kitchen is fitted, so you can move in without a first-week shopping list of appliances. Three bedrooms share a shower room, with a separate WC. The insulated, tiled garage is the flexible space. It could become a fourth bedroom or a home office, which is useful if you work remotely or want a guest room with its own door. As with any conversion, check the planning rules with the local mairie before you commit. The practical work has been done. The windows are double glazed throughout, a heat pump was installed recently, and the house is connected to mains drainage, so there is no septic tank to inspect or maintain. ### The Garden, Double Garage and a Possible Second Plot The garden is large and fully enclosed, so children and dogs can run free without you checking the gate. There is room for a vegetable patch, a terrace for long lunches, or all of it left as lawn. A detached double garage gives you covered parking for two cars, or a workshop and storage for garden tools and bikes. The plot is also a possibility. The seller points out that it could be split in two, with tw ... click here to read more

This five-bedroom house for sale in Seine-Maritime sits in Saint-Aubin-lès-Elbeuf, on a 3,012 m² enclosed plot, five minutes from the train station. It is described as a manor house, with 235 m² of living space, a south-facing terrace with a jacuzzi and a row of outbuildings that keep cars, bikes and tools out of the way. The condition is good, so the question here is less about renovation and more about how you want to use all that room. ### The House: A 25 m² Kitchen, Two Fireplaces and Five Bedrooms The ground floor starts with a wide entrance hall, with a large closet and a separate WC. It sounds like a small detail until a family comes in on a wet Normandy afternoon. The kitchen is the room most visitors will remember. It is fully fitted and equipped, and at about 25 m² it is big enough to cook and eat in at the same time. The utility room has a sink and a door straight onto the garden, which is handy for muddy boots and garden tools. There are two reception rooms, both generously proportioned. The living room has a fireplace insert, and the sitting room has its own fireplace. In a region with a mild but often damp oceanic climate, that gives you two ways to take the chill off an evening. Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms occupy the first floor, including a master suite with a dressing room. The house has five bedrooms in total. The data shows a single bathroom, so check on your visit whether that suits the way your household lives. ### Garden, Terrace and Outbuildings The plot covers 3,012 m². It is landscaped and fully enclosed, which matters if you have children or dogs, or simply like the idea of closing the gate and knowing the grounds are your own. The large south-facing terrace with a jacuzzi catches ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in Molières, and the only sound reaching you through the kitchen window is birdsong and the faint creak of the old tobacco barn in a light breeze. No traffic. No neighbors close enough to matter. Just the smell of coffee, a terrace at arm's length, and 4,231 square meters of Dordogne countryside rolling away in every direction.

As a busy real estate agent working with a lot of overseas clients, I get to see many properties in France, but now and then I come across one that really stands out for buyers coming in from abroad. This property I’ve just visited in Sainte-Croix, in the heart of Aquitaine, is just one of those. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, spread over about 185 square meters, it’s a stone house that people here call a “Petit Manoir.” It’s not everyday you find a place in France that ticks so many boxes for people relocating, buying a second home, or just wanting a bit of that French lifestyle. Let me start by giving you a bit of the local flavour. Sainte-Croix is a really nice village, mostly known to people who have been coming to this part of France for years. It sits in Aquitaine, which is a region famous for wine, sunflower fields, and that slow rhythm of village life you don’t always get elsewhere. The climate is, I’ll say, one of the highlights—mild winters and summers that are usually warm but not as punishing as in the far south. You can expect to spend a lot of time outside, making it good for anyone wanting to enjoy their garden or the pool during long afternoons. You’ll meet plenty of locals here, but also a good mix of expats and holiday home owners, so you don’t feel like the odd one out if you’re coming from overseas. If you’re thinking day-to-day life, the basics are all covered. There’s a bakery not too far off, a small supermarket, pharmacy and a couple of restaurants and cafés where you can actually get a seat without the tourist crowds you get closer to the coast. Bergerac and its airport is about 40mins’ drive, so getting here from the UK or the Netherlands isn’t too difficult, to be honest. The surrounding ... click here to read more

Alright, so here is the new property description, written as though by a busy agent in a big global network, with the requested features and style: So, I've recently taken on this property in Beaumontois-en-Périgord, which honestly is a great opportunity especially for those who want to settle in the beautiful south-west of France. I'm getting lots of requests for these stone houses lately, they don't come up very often, and this spot is quite handy for people who want to live close to both nature and history. Let me set the scene a little. Beaumontois-en-Périgord is right in the heart of Aquitaine, in the Dordogne region, which a lot of expats will know is pretty famous with foreign buyers. The air is clean, the landscape is green, and here you really get the feel of living in a French village but still just a short hop from bigger towns like Bergerac for all your shops, transport, or a night out in town. Now, living here isn’t like living in Paris or London – you’ll need a car, for sure, because public transport is limited, but in return you get tons of space, privacy and that French rural lifestyle that is getting harder to find these days. The climate is temperate, winters are usually pretty mild (might get a few frosts, but very little snow) and summers are warm but not stifling. It’s a really good place for those who enjoy being outside, with loads of walking, cycling routes, and of course you can head to the local markets almost every week. There’s a real community feel, especially among those who've moved here from abroad – quite a few English speakers around, so you won't feel isolated if your French is not perfect yet.
