The property enjoys an isolated position in the midst of a private domain of about 37 acres of mostly pine forest. Except for a distant barn there are no other buildings in view, and the privacy and tranquility are complete. There is a pond a short distance from the rear of the house so care must be taken with small children.
The private swimming pool (size 12x6m; depth 1-2.2m) with roman steps is located at the rear of the house. There is a built-in barbecue, and a terrace next to the pool ideal for al fresco dining.
LOCATION
This splendid 17th century Maison Douze is located 2km from the small village of Lacropte in the northern Dordogne. There are some shops and a public tennis court in Lacropte, but more shops and services can be found in Vergt (8km). There are small shops and a Sunday market, as well as restaurants in La Douze (2km). Périgueux (17km) is an interesting town well worth a visit, and golf courses, riding stables, and river sports can all be found within 17km.
The tranquil setting of the house is enhanced by the furnishings, a combination of rustic furniture and original features, such as the beamed ceilings and some of the original interior stone walls. There is a sitting room opening onto the terrace, and the kitchen area within the dining room is very well equipped with modern appliances. One twin and one double bedroom are on the ground floor; the other bedrooms are on the first floor.
