Description:
This is an extremely sought-after piece of property in the Upper Gironde area of Aquitaine: 18th century manor with over 350 square meters of renovated living space in the main house. A large attic of 250 square meters with outstanding wooden beams permit further development for owners quarters or more rooms for the bed and breakfast. An apartment of 100 square meters annexes the main manor to operate as an self-catering cottate. In addition, two large outbuildings, the chai (wine barn) and the horse stables, align the house to make for an enclosed 'maison de maître' typical of 18th century Gironde. The 'Chai' has been partly renovated to include a second self-catering 2 bedroom cottage. The property sits on a 2.5 hectare parcel of land surrounded by forests and the vineyards of Cote de Blaye. Known as ' La Sauvageonne', this property has functionned as a three-suite bed and breakfast with a 4-star ranking and has a high rate of business from May through September. The gite, or cottage has business for 18-20 weeks in the year, and a second larger cottage was completed in 2004.
