Fairytale French chateau
A medieval chateau straight from a fairytale in south west France has just had its price reduced


This perfect medieval chateau in the Lot et Garonne is situated in idyllic countryside, just 1.5 hours from three major airports of Bergerac, Bordeaux and Toulouse.
Reception rooms have magnificent fireplaces, solid oak doors with wrought iron fittings, secret spiral staircases, turrets and towers. Renovated to an exceptionally high standard by its current owners, it now offers very modern conveniences that both contrast and complement its medieval character, with ensuite bathrooms, a modern kitchen and swimming pool.
The main body of the chateau has seven large bedrooms, and conveniently located on the other side of the courtyard is an eighth with its own living room - ideal for guests or guardians. 'This property would make a super principle home, a second home or equally a commercial business', says sales agent Stewart Cook of Classic French Homes, a Knight Frank representative.
The price has just been reduced from €2.85m to €1.995m (+33 (0)6 76 45 32 25; www.knightfrank.co.uk/international)
