The house is beautifully presented and ready to move in to straight away.  Along with the adjoining property, the house is situated in an elevated position, with views down the valley to the vines and woodland beyond.  The shaded terrace beneath a beautiful big oak tree, or the poolside area are the best places to sit back an enjoy the vista.

The elevated position and 4.5 acre grounds at the property are a particularly beautiful.  The large terrace is the ideal spot to enjoy a meal or aperitif enjoying the view under the shade of the great oak tree.  The views from the pool are similarly impressive.  The grounds drop away to the valley below where the woodland area is great for exploring and, of course, providing fodder for the 3 wood-burners in the house!  There are two small, disused farm buildings nestled in the woods.





Gensac is a very pretty village with shops, a bank, bakery, doctor, medical centre, schools, chemist and tabac.  There is also a small weekly fresh produce market and Gensac is also home to a couple of well-regarded restaurants.  It's just a couple of kilometres from the Dordogne river and there are also three leisure lakes nearby.  If you're a keen tennis player, there are courts available and there is an active tennis club. If golf is more your thing, there are a couple of good courses nearby to choose from.  It's an easy drive to the nearest train station with a direct line into central Bordeaux and Bergerac airport is an easy 40minute drive.
