4-bed Detached in Libourne

A beautifully renovated stone property on the edge of Libourne, with four bedrooms, generous reception rooms, a heated pool, an enclosed garden of 0.8 acres, a large garage and scope to create independent guest accommodation. It combines character and space with easy access to shops, Saint-Émilion and Bordeaux.

Built before 1900 and completely renovated in 2017, the house has retained its period character while offering a comfortable, well-planned layout. The main living area brings together a spacious sitting room with a contemporary wood-burning stove and a kitchen with dining space centred around an original fireplace fitted with a pellet stove. Glazed doors open onto the covered terrace beside the pool.

A second sitting room, with impressive proportions and an original fireplace, occupies the right-hand wing of the house. This part of the property also has a bedroom with its own shower room and WC, plus a room currently used as a gym, with a private terrace. The gym could become a fifth bedroom, and this wing offers the possibility of creating more independent accommodation, subject to any necessary alterations and permissions.
