Property Description

Set in an exceptionally beautiful and peaceful environment, this characterful ecological estate comprises two residential properties with several outbuildings, located on 1.2 hectares of ecologically cultivated land including a food forest, natural spring and chicken enclosure. A rare combination of privacy, nature, sustainability and comfort, enhanced by breathtaking panoramic views over the surrounding countryside.
Access is via a quiet country lane lined with fruit trees, nut trees and a variety of herbs. Upon arrival, the wide open panorama immediately captivates: a place where you truly feel alone in the world, immersed in nature.
Despite its rural setting, the location remains highly practical: just 10 km from the lively and typically French town of Saint-Céré, offering shops, restaurants, supermarkets and DIY stores. Well-known sites such as Bretenoux, Carennac, Loubressac, Autoire, the Gouffre de Padirac, Rocamadour, as well as the Dordogne River and Lac de Tolermo (canoeing and outdoor activities), are also close by and easily accessible.
