Description
This house for sale in Dordogne, near Mareuil en Périgord, comes with 1.9 hectares of fenced woodland, a 125 m² barn and a second house to renovate. It sits at the end of a quiet hamlet, so the only traffic you are likely to hear is your own. For a family after space, or a buyer who wants a rural base with room to grow a guest-accommodation project, the combination is hard to find at this price level.
The House: Five Bedrooms and 186 m²
The main house has 186 m² of living space and a layout that suits family life. Downstairs there is a large kitchen, a separate dining room and a living room. Upstairs you will find all five bedrooms and the bathroom, which keeps the sleeping floor self-contained. The condition is good, so you can move in and live here before deciding what, if anything, to change.
Heating comes from a water-to-water heat pump that draws on a borehole on the plot. That is worth asking about at a viewing, as running costs and servicing history matter for a house this size. With five bedrooms and only one bathroom, some buyers will want to add a second one. The upstairs space should leave room for that, though you would need a local builder to confirm what is practical.
Barn, Bread Oven and a Second House to Renovate
The outbuildings are what set this house for sale in Dordogne apart from the usual village house with a garden. There is a 33 m² garage and an adjoining barn of roughly 125 m². A barn that size can be a workshop, a storage space for a classic car or a boat, or a covered space for family gatherings. Converting it to living space would need planning permission, so check the rules with the mairie before you plan anything.
Then there is the bread oven. It measures 12 m², and the owners describe it as in full working order. Lighting it for a summer weekend with friends is the kind of thing buyers remember long after they have forgotten the kitchen specification.
A second house stands on the land with a small shed beside it. It needs complete renovation, so treat it as a project, not a bonus bedroom. It could become a gîte or guest house, which makes the property interesting as a holiday home in Dordogne that earns something while you are away. Get quotes before you budget, because a full renovation in rural France can cost more than buyers expect.
The Land: 1.9 Hectares, Fenced and Gated
The plot covers 19,117 m² and is wooded, with numerous trees. It is fully enclosed, and an electric gate controls the entrance. That helps if you have children or dogs, or if the house will stand empty for part of the year. Woodland also needs care, so factor in some seasonal clearing and tree maintenance. A good ride-on mower and a chainsaw will pay for themselves quickly.
Living Near Mareuil en Périgord
Mareuil en Périgord is a small town in the Périgord Vert, the green, hilly northern part of Dordogne. It has a medieval château and the amenities you need day to day, and the property is only minutes away. For a larger shop or a weekend market you can head to Brantôme, the riverside town often called the Venice of Périgord, which is roughly 20 to 30 minutes by car. The area falls within the Périgord-Limousin regional nature park, which means walking and cycling on your doorstep, and canoeing on the Dronne.
Getting There: Airports and Drive Times
Bergerac airport is the usual choice for buyers flying in from the UK and takes roughly 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 by road. Limoges airport is a similar drive. Périgueux, the departmental capital, is about 45 minutes away and has a mainline train station. Angoulême is also within about an hour. You need a car here, as in most of rural France, and a second home in France like this one works best if you can visit several times a year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this property work as a gîte or holiday rental?
The second house is described as suitable for a gîte or guest house, but it needs complete renovation first. The main house, with five bedrooms, could also host paying guests once you have checked local regulations and registration rules.
What is the nearest airport?
Bergerac is the most convenient for flights from the UK, at about 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 by car. Limoges is a comparable drive.
Is the land suitable for children and pets?
The whole plot is enclosed and has an electric gate, so it is secure. At 1.9 hectares of woodland it still deserves a walk-round to check the boundaries and any water features.
