Exceptional Country House with Panoramic Views of Cordes-sur-Ciel – South of France
Perched in a privileged elevated position, this stunning country estate offers complete privacy, tranquility, and breathtaking panoramic views over Cordes-sur-Ciel, one of France’s most beautiful medieval villages. Ideally located just 30 minutes from Albi, a UNESCO World Heritage city, the property combines seclusion with easy access to culture, dining, and amenities.
Dating back to the Middle Ages, the main house has been beautifully restored using traditional materials, preserving its authentic character while offering modern comfort. The property provides approximately 480 m² of elegant living space set within landscaped gardens designed to maximise the views.
The ground floor features a spacious entrance hall, a charming farmhouse kitchen, and three bright reception rooms, including one opening onto a terrace overlooking the gardens. The principal suite occupies a private wing, complete with dressing room, lounge, and bathroom, and enjoys spectacular triple-aspect views. A further bedroom and bathroom are also located on this level.
A second wing offers three ensuite bedrooms, one with direct access to a west-facing terrace and courtyard garden. An additional room, currently used as a home cinema with adjoining bathroom, provides flexible living space.
The architect-designed infinity pool with beach-style entry is perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding landscape in complete privacy.
A separate 65 m² guest house includes a kitchen, living/dining area, ensuite bedroom, and private terrace—ideal for visitors or rental income.
A rare opportunity to own a historic luxury home in the heart of the French countryside. Early viewing highly recommended.

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.
