Elegant 19th-Century Estate at the Gates of Bordeaux
Set in a peaceful and bucolic environment at the gateway to Bordeaux, this superb 19th-century estate captures the timeless charm of the Bordeaux countryside. Surrounded by vineyards and woodland, and located just 20 minutes from the city centre, it offers the perfect balance between rural tranquility and urban convenience.
Beautifully restored with respect for its heritage, the main residence of approximately 600 sqm reveals spectacular volumes and refined architectural details. The grand entrance hall sets the tone, opening onto a succession of bright reception rooms designed for both comfort and entertaining. A bespoke library, convivial dining room, generous family kitchen, bar and relaxation area, games room with billiards, and a professional wine cellar complete the ground floor. Every space blends elegance with warmth, creating an inviting atmosphere for family life and hospitality.
Upstairs, six spacious bedrooms — including four complete suites — offer serene and light-filled retreats with views over the park and surrounding nature.
An independent 230 sqm guesthouse, inspired by the coastal villas of Arcachon, provides additional accommodation in total privacy. It features several living spaces, four bedrooms and two shower rooms, making it ideal for hosting family or friends.
The landscaped 3.6-hectare grounds form an exceptional natural haven. Shaded terraces, meadows, and century-old trees surround a heated saltwater swimming pool. Several outbuildings enhance the property, including a 200 sqm open structure offering outstanding potential for conversion — whether as a guesthouse, event space, wellness retreat, or artist’s studio. Two charming dovecotes, a garage, and ample parking areas complete the ensemble.
