In the heart of Quercy, this fully-renovated two-story mansion has 400 sq m of living space, among other amenities. The ground floor houses a kitchen, a dining room, a bedroom, small parlors, a pool hall and a very pleasant study. "This property welcomed many artists," explains J. de La Fontaine Immobilier/Sotheby's International Realty. "It has several paintings, beautiful terra cotta and stone floors, as well as vintage fireplaces." On the first floor, there are four bedrooms and as many bathrooms, a huge painter's studio and a somptuous library. The second floor, in the attic, has 200 sq m of available space. With a fantastic view on the village of Floirac in the distance, the mansion was been erected in the middle of a 42-acre wooded park with meadows, a stone swimming pool, a 250 sq m keeper's house and a garage. The house is only 15 min away from the A20 highway, and 20 min from the new Cressensac-Brive Airport.
