A unique 14th-century historic monument awaits you in one of the most beautiful villages in France. This restored convent wing with protected elements, original vaulted ceilings, walled garden and operating business offers an unrepeatable living experience in the heart of Haut Limousin.
This exceptional property forms part of the west wing of a historic convent founded in 1329, listed as a historic monument and situated in one of the villages classified as 'the most beautiful in France'. Located in the Pays du Haut Limousin region, near Limoges, the ensemble stands on 1,545 m² of walled garden in an enclave that preserves ten centuries of history.
The village developed around a castle built in the 10th century and two convents erected in the 14th century, creating an authentic medieval atmosphere that transports its inhabitants to another era. The property includes unique architectural elements legally protected, such as the original decorative paintings with cartouches and floral motifs in the entrance portico vault, and the 18th-century niche housing the Virgin of Mount Carmel.
With 700 m² built distributed across three floors, this property combines medieval architectural grandeur with contemporary finishes and first-class amenities.
The ground floor houses a large vestibule with cement tile flooring leading to the main salon and dining room with open kitchen, as well as the famous carved wooden spiral staircase. All rooms preserve original vaulted ceilings, testimony to the building's monastic purpose. The summer salon and music room particularly stands out, with exposed stone walls, pine wood flooring and spectacular vaults that keep the space cool during summer.
The first floor is distributed through a landing that also functions as a salon, connecting a bathroom plus bedroom with en-suite shower room, and a long corridor leading to four additional bedrooms, each with private toilet and shower room. A small salon with marble fireplace houses a recently installed eight-person sauna.
The tower includes an independent summer apartment with kitchen on the landing and two large vaulted bedrooms whose thick white-painted walls ensure coolness during summer. The second floor awaits restoration, with exposed roof structure forming a perspective of approximately 40 metres.
The Pays du Haut Limousin region extends in the shadow of the Monts de Blond hills, with their legendary stones, large green spaces and notable heritage. An 18-hole golf course is located just 1 kilometre away, while hiking trails, producers' markets, antique shops and festive events enliven the region throughout the year.
Daily services are found in Bellac 10 minutes away and Saint Junien 20 minutes away. Limoges airport is 30 minutes away, from where direct flights to Lyon, Marseille, Marrakech and England can be taken, providing unbeatable international connections.
This property represents a unique opportunity to acquire protected historic heritage operating as a rural accommodation business, with unique spaces combining the majesty of monastic architecture with 21st-century comfort and amenities in one of the most beautiful and privileged enclaves in France.
