Bergerac, Aquitaine 24100

The elegance of an architect's house steeped in history.It sometimes happens that the visit of a property is not just a simple discovery, but becomes a real encounter. This is exactly what we feel when we walk through the gate of this architect's house, built around the walls of an old Prigord sheepfold.From the outside, the charm operates: carefully preserved authentic architectural elements, Genoese, old window underneaths, stone walls blend with a rare elegance with a bright and contemporary renovation. Signed by Les Maisons du Prigord in 1969, this property is a subtle tribute to local tradition combined with an avant-garde architectural vision for its time.The main living room, the real heart of the house, impresses from the outset. 75 m of open space, bathed in light thanks to large south-facing bay windows, with a traditional Prigord adobe floor, a material as rare as it is aesthetic? and massive exposed beams that underline the warmth of the place. In the center, a suspended tempered glass fireplace imposes its elegance.The sleeping area on the ground floor consists of a master suite with dressing room, bathtub and private terrace, and two other bedrooms, accompanied by a shower room. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, a toilet, as well as a converted double attic offer even more flexibility to this family set.In total, there is more than 220 m of usable space, with a mezzanine/office of about 15 m overlooking the living room via a spiral staircase by Roger Tallon, a renowned French industrial designer.Finally, an outbuilding of about 40 m completes the property, consisting of a closed workshop and a double garage on concrete slabs, with electricity and water point.But what completes this discovery is undoubtedly the wooded and fully fenced park that surrounds the house: a real green setting, where calm and tranquility reign supreme. A preserved natural environment, conducive to relaxation, contemplation or family games, away from any nuisance.
