Unique house built into natural rock in La Roque-Gageac, one of France's most beautiful villages in the Dordogne Valley.
This renovated 172 m² stone village house combines original character with modern comfort. Distinctive features include exposed limestone rock walls throughout the interior, an underground cave system, and three bedrooms with two bathrooms. The property is located just 10 minutes from Sarlat-la-Canéda and 5 minutes from the Dordogne River.
The house offers a high level of privacy, with a gated entrance, electric gate, walled boundaries, and a private access road leading to covered parking, a garage, and a workshop.
On the ground floor, a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area features a fireplace and doors opening onto the garden. This leads into a living room with a striking exposed rock wall. Also on this level are a bedroom with French doors to the garden, a shower room, a separate WC, and access to the cave cellar.
Upstairs are two further bedrooms, including a principal suite with WC, home office space, and a Juliette balcony with open views over the surrounding valley and countryside.
The property benefits from double and triple glazing, a recently installed micro-station for wastewater, a modern pellet burner with hopper, natural spring water supply, and fibre-optic internet.
Outside, a heated swimming pool enjoys open valley views, surrounded by mature Mediterranean gardens and woodland.
Ideally suited as a permanent residence or high-quality holiday home, the property is set in a UNESCO World Heritage area close to Sarlat and Saint Cyprien. Village shops, bakery, restaurants, and weekly markets are within walking distance, with canoeing and river activities just five minutes away. Bergerac Airport is approximately one hour away and Bordeaux Airport two hours.
Presented in turnkey condition, the property also offers strong rental potential (subject to necessary permissions).

Opening Hours
Tuesday to Friday 10am - 4.30pmDiscuss an Offer
If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
