Extremely secluded property. Good privacy. Set in a fabulous environment with several lakes and a hilly and wooded landscape. No disturbances. Perfectly quiet and peaceful. A long driveway leads to the Chateau. A small public path edges the park. Two picturesque villages are within 5 km (3 miles), one of which, Pluvier Piegut, has the largest weekly outdoor market in France. An 18-hole golf course is located within 15km (10miles). The Hermes factory is located in Nontron, the nearest small town, approximately 30 km (18miles) away. The proposed investment is the development of a beautiful property in the Dordogne, France. Surrounded by a superb landscape and bordering two lakes is the historical and prestigious Napoléon III styled chateau of about 2,050 sqm of living space (22,000 sf) with spacious reception rooms, a chapel, monumental limestone staircase and about 20 bedrooms upstairs and complemented by a significant set of outbuildings totaling 2,800 sqm (30,000 sf). The English park of 31.7 hectares (80 acres), designed by the Bühlers and planted with mature trees, completes the ensemble. The concept for the development is to convert the outbuildings into 33 luxurious apartments for sale, varying from 60 sqm (650 sf) to 180 sqm (1,950 sf). The Chateau will be converted to a luxurious boutique Spa Hotel, with 20 bedroom suites, restaurant and spa facilities and an indoor pool. An outdoor riding ring and stables, as well as an outdoor pool, tennis courts and a pitch-and-putt will be integrated into the existing park. Architects : Luc Puybareau and Gerhard Heusch
