With striking geometric lines and an elevated position overlooking the northern Dordogne countryside, Le Cube is a one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece that redefines rural luxury.

Conceived by an internationally renowned architect, this bold, contemporary retreat rises from its hillside setting to command panoramic views of the valley below. From the moment you arrive, there's a sense of sophistication thanks to its form, light and space.

Spread across three levels and crowned by a roof terrace, the house is built for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Large glass doors flood the open-plan living area with natural light, opening onto a decked terrace that becomes part of the home itself. Here, long al-fresco lunches stretch into dinners on warm summer evenings, framed by gorgeous countryside views. The heart of the house features a sleek kitchen with central island, a lounge with wood-burning stove for cooler evenings alongside interesting furnishings and artwork.

Three beautifully appointed bedrooms are distributed across the upper and lower levels, offering privacy and flexibility for families or friends travelling together. One bedroom, with its four-poster bed, air-conditioning and ensuite bathroom, is perched on the first floor whilst two further bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en suite) are tucked into the lower level with direct garden access, sharing a convenient kitchenette.

Outside, the scene is equally impressive. On a raised terrace above the grounds below, the heated infinity pool stretches out toward the horizon, flanked by sun loungers and a shaded seating area for slow afternoons. Enclosed within several acres of private woodland and lawns, the grounds below invite both exploration and quiet reflection with an abundance of wildlife.

Le Cube lies just a short stroll from the village of Lusignac, where a charming café bar/restaurant offers simple pleasures within walking distance. A short drive brings you to Saint-Séverin or Verteillac for daily essentials and lively local markets, while the town of Ribérac, only fifteen minutes away, hosts cultural events, excellent dining and a famous Friday morning market. For deeper discoveries, Périgueux is under an hour away with its vibrant medieval heart and wider amenities or venture south to Bergerac and its vineyards beside the Dordogne River.

For those in search of a modern escape in the authentic French countryside, Le Cube offers a rare combination: bold design and the soul-stirring beauty of the Dordogne at your feet.

What you should know

  • Guests need to be able to safely manage open-tread stairs and different levels at this stunning home – the swimming pool is raised above the surrounding grounds (via stairs) and the main floor is on the mid-level (the views are incredible!).
  • It’s a fairly easy walk to the village of Lusignac along the country road (no pavement).
