Eymet, Aquitaine 24500

Over recent years, this historic former tax collectors residence has undergone extensive, high-quality renovations and redecoration, all overseen by the Architects of the Batiments de France. The renovation has created spacious, elegant living areas spread across three floors. The ground floor features welcoming living and sitting areas, an open-plan kitchen with a pantry, and a downstairs bathroom complemented by a generous laundry room. Of particular interest is the Ogee Arch, a distinctive S-shaped curve, formed by two opposing, curved lines that mirror each other. Ogee arches are popular in Gothic and Baroque styles, to add visual interest and sophistication to doorways. A staircase from the first floor leads to a bright, spacious sitting room, two bedrooms, and bathrooms. The second floor offers a versatile space that includes a sitting area, an additional bedroom and bathroom, as well as a separate room with a dressing area. Comfort is assured with gas heating and cooling air conditioning via heat pumps to bedrooms. The central sitting room opens onto a charming garden and a courtyard fountain, perfect for outdoor entertaining. An al fresco dining area, shaded by a loggia, is set within the high walled garden, providing privacy and tranquility. Additional amenities include a garage with an electric vehicle charging point, and a workshop, adding to the property's practical appeal. The village of Eymet, a charming medieval town located in the Dordogne region of southwestern France is known for its picturesque streets, historic architecture, and vibrant community, it is a popular destination for both visitors and expatriates. There are many bars, cafes and restaurants open throughout the year, and the weekly market, where local producers sell fresh produce, cheeses, wines, and artisanal crafts, providing an authentic taste of regional culture.
