Set within the heart of the prestigious Périgord Vert, close to the charming market town of Thiviers, this remarkable estate combines the elegance of a grand French chartreuse with the presence, scale and atmosphere of a private château domain.

Originally commissioned in the early 1980s by an eminent Belgian family passionate about classical architecture and sophisticated entertaining, the residence was designed to create a refined country estate of rare distinction. Today, the property offers approximately 745 sqm of beautifully proportioned living space where noble materials, elegant architectural lines and exceptional volumes combine seamlessly.

From the moment of arrival, the residence immediately impresses with its commanding presence and timeless symmetry. Sweeping natural stone staircases, elegant stone flooring and carefully crafted architectural details reflect the quality and ambition of the original design.

The reception areas have been conceived on a grand scale, perfectly suited to both formal entertaining and luxurious family living. Large windows and French doors open naturally onto terraces, landscaped gardens and the surrounding grounds, creating a constant connection between the interiors and the outdoor spaces.

The property offers nine bedrooms and nine bathrooms, allowing for exceptional comfort and flexibility for family members and guests alike. Throughout the house, the proportions remain elegant and harmonious, with abundant natural light enhancing the refined atmosphere.

One of the estate’s most remarkable features is its extensive lower ground floor level of approximately 600 sqm. Fully integrated into the gentle slope of the grounds and partially opening directly onto the gardens, this extraordinary space offers immense potential for a variety of prestigious uses. Subject to the owner’s vision, it could accommodate wellness and spa facilities, a private art gallery, entertainment suites, fitness areas, wine cellars, additional reception rooms or a significant classic car collection.

Outside, the estate continues to impress with beautifully landscaped grounds designed to preserve privacy and tranquillity. Elegant stone terraces surround the residence, while the secluded swimming pool creates a peaceful setting for relaxation.

A particularly striking feature is the magnificent orangery of approximately 250 sqm, which further enhances the estate’s château-like character and offers exceptional possibilities for entertaining, exhibitions or events.

Despite its grandeur and scale, the property benefits from excellent modern comfort standards, including underfloor heating throughout and a highly favourable energy performance classification (Class C) — an especially rare attribute for a residence of this size and stature.

This exceptional property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a prestigious estate in one of the Dordogne’s most desirable regions — equally suited as an elegant private family residence, luxury retreat, hospitality project or refined French country domain.
