Renaissance Castle with Swimming Pool and Tennis Court in Périgueux

About the Property

A noble Renaissance castle, dating from the 15th century, stands majestically within a 2-hectare enclosed park overlooking the valley in the Périgord Blanc region of France. This historic dwelling, with a total area of 20,000 m², features a rich architectural heritage and is complemented by a swimming pool and tennis court. The property is conveniently located near Périgueux, making it an accessible retreat. The castle's high north end walls, characterized by sparse openings, buttresses, and a round tower, reflect its fortified origins. The residence is approached via a tree-lined driveway leading from the entrance gate, while a track runs alongside the tennis court, connecting to the outbuildings and swimming pool at the base of the slope. The grounds include a discreet lap pool, seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape. The estate is framed by two enclosed spaces, each offering breathtaking views. The courtyard, featuring a well topped by a pyramid-shaped roof, is accompanied by an outbuilding serving as a garden shed and a hangar for vehicles. A low pilaster and dressed stone wall enhance the pool area, which is accessible through a carriage gate, a pedestrian gate, and a recently installed gate. On the opposite side of the residence, a lawned garden adorned with vibrant flowers provides a summer dining area under a covered patio.
