Fabulous and immaculately presented character property in an imposing position overlooking the valley, with incomparable panoramic views.

Renovated from a ruin with high quality materials, the manoire has been restored with elegance, authenticity, passion and attention to detail.
Its location in the heart of the sought-after Causses du Quercy and its proximity to a medieval village add to its appeal.

The old stone house has been considerably extended to create a sophisticated home with light-filled living spaces.
The living room and contemporary bathroom, with its roll-top bath and large walk-in shower on this level, have been cleverly arranged around the stone contours of the wall.
The first floor features an open-plan living area and a kitchen with a spacious dining room.
Exposed stonework, chalk and lime finishes and bespoke joinery feature throughout. On this level, there are two wood-burning stoves and a separate WC.

On the second floor there is a large master bedroom with a magnificent chestnut ceiling and exposed beams. There is a WC in the pigeonnier on this level.

The main house is equipped to run underfloor heating and, with the addition of a heating source, could provide central heating.

Outside, the 100 m2 stone terrace with vine-covered pergola makes the most of the panoramic views. At the foot of the pigeonnier at one end of the main house is a stone, vaulted water tank in good condition which is accessed from the outside terrace.

Just a few metres from the house is a stone barn that looks traditional from the outside, but has a modern, completely self-contained, 2 level apartment inside.
Comprising an open-plan living room and kitchen and at garden level, a large bedroom and bathroom, the apartment, like the main house, has been tastefully renovated.

Further along is a two-storey stone barn currently used for storage and, to the south of the main house, there is a restored two-storey stone pigsty with a bread oven.

There are three natural springs in the grounds, their pools carved out of the rock.
Close to the famous 'Route des Cazelles', the property has its own cazelle (stone shepherd's hut) which, although in need of complete renovation, is a stunning feature.

Entrance to the property is from the very quiet, no-through road where there is a parking space and a recently built car port.

A more peaceful, quiet, beautiful location would be hard to find.
The nearest amenities are 3 kms away in the nearby village with its mediaeval history and where there is a grocery store, bakery, doctor and school plus a lively weekly market.
The popular town of Cajarc, with all its shops and services is 14 kilometres away.

This is a unique and elegant property that really must be visited to appreciate the care that has been taken with its renovation and the tranquillity of its location.

Buying a Property in France

1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.

The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.

Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.

2. Paying the Deposit

Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.

3. On Completion

Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.

During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
