In an elevated setting with extensive views, Maison Le Roc is a rare find: a traditional country home with a historic tower, beautifully renovated to a high standard blending period character with contemporary comfort, less than 2km from the historic village of Saint-Cyprien.
Surrounded by 7.5 acres of woodland and terraced grounds, this historic house offers seclusion and cinematic vistas. On misty mornings, hot air balloons rise in the distance, while summer afternoons invite you to linger on the shaded terrace, glass of wine in hand, as the countryside stretches out before you.
The interiors exude old-fashioned charm. The main house features a contemporary kitchen with stone floors, a wine fridge and direct access to the terrace, while the living room retains original features dating back to the 16th century. There are three double bedrooms across the first and second floors, each with an en-suite, including one with its own bathroom in the tower. Furthermore, the pool house annexe offers two further ensuite double bedrooms, allowing Maison Le Roc to sleep up to 10 guests.
The heated swimming pool, set beside a sun terrace with loungers, is a natural gathering place. A summer kitchen, complete with bar, fridge and barbecue, makes al fresco dining a daily ritual. Elsewhere across the rugged grounds, discover woodland trails and a path leading to an elevated lookout point with far-reaching views.
Perfectly placed between Sarlat-la-Canéda and Les Eyzies, Maison Le Roc offers a gateway to the cultural heart of the Périgord Noir. Just 2km away, Saint-Cyprien brims with charm and convenience: bakeries, restaurants, markets and cafes. Exploring medieval villages like Beynac and Domme, canoeing along the Dordogne, boat rides or tasting wines in nearby caves, all lie within easy reach.
Whether gathered around the pool, enjoying evening meals on the terrace or stargazing through the telescope in the ancient salon, life at Maison Le Roc moves to a slower, more elegant rhythm. This is Dordogne living at its most characterful.
- There are four bedrooms in the main house (including one with a bathroom in the tower!) and two bedrooms in the separate poolside annexe.
- The private grounds are beautiful with walks and trails including a path leading to an elevated look-out point. With terraced, rugged and sometimes steep grounds, children will need to be supervised.
