About this property
Blanchetoure, historic country house from the 14th century
Blanchetoure
Blanchetoure is a charming and spacious Maison de Maître, nestled in the lush landscape of the Périgord Vert in Southwest France. This historic estate, dating back to the 14th century and once home to the Knights Templar, offers a unique blend of authenticity and modern comfort. From the house, you enjoy sweeping views of fields, forests and a peaceful garden with an old walnut tree. The fenced private pool invites you for a refreshing morning swim or a relaxing afternoon in the sun. A perfect retreat for families or groups seeking tranquillity, nature and French charm.
Interior
The interior is warm and tastefully decorated, with natural materials and a homely atmosphere. The spacious kitchen (6 x 9 m) features a Belgian bluestone countertop and a large dining table, ideal for cosy evenings indoors. The living room with central fireplace offers a welcoming space to unwind. There are four bedrooms (three doubles and one triple) spread over two floors, with well-equipped bathrooms on the ground and first floor. A second lounge upstairs with a large book collection provides a quiet corner for reading or relaxing.
Exterior
The house sits on a private 2,000 m² plot with mature trees and open views of the surrounding countryside. Opposite the main entrance is a romantic walled cuisine d’été with herb garden, a large dining table under a wisteria-covered pergola, and a barbecue. The recently fenced pool ensures safety for children and pets. Ample parking is available on the property.
Surroundings
The region offers a rich mix of culture and nature:
• Château de Puyguilhem: Renaissance castle with beautiful gardens in Villars
• Grotte de Villars: Fascinating cave system with stalactites and stalagmites
• Abbey of Brantôme: Historic riverside abbey in a picturesque village
• Château de Bourdeilles: Well-preserved medieval castle with artefacts
• Cathedral of Périgueux: Impressive Gothic cathedral about 30 km away
Please note: availability before 18/07/2026 and after 29/08/2026 on request!
