Properties like this rarely come to market. Occupying a prominent riverside position at the entrance to the historic medieval village of Puy-l'Évêque, this substantial former chambres d'hôtes combines architectural grandeur, commercial potential and an enviable lifestyle setting in the heart of the Lot Valley.

Behind its elegant wrought-iron gates, the main house rises over several levels and immediately impresses with its magnificent entrance hall and sweeping staircase, a striking reminder of the property's prestigious past. The principal living floor comprises two salons, a dining room, kitchen, utility room, shower room with WC and a terrace overlooking the river and village.

The upper floors provide five generous bedrooms, each benefiting from its own bathroom or shower room, reflecting the property's successful history as guest accommodation. A study, storage rooms and extensive attic spaces offer further flexibility for future projects. Below the house are three large cellars and additional storage areas.

Outside, the gardens, terraces and swimming pool enjoy a beautiful riverside setting with views towards the village's iconic church, stone houses and château.

In addition, a separate 111m2 guest cottage provides comfortable independent accommodation with a kitchen/living room, salon, two bedrooms, dressing room, bathroom, shower room, garage, cellar and storage areas, making it ideal for family, guests or rental income.

A further independent 95m2 stone barn offers exciting development potential (subject to any necessary permissions), whether as additional accommodation, workshops, event space, studios or leisure facilities.

While renovation and modernisation are now required, much of the infrastructure for hospitality use is already in place. The combination of five ensuite guest bedrooms, separate accommodation and substantial outbuildings creates exciting possibilities for a boutique chambres d'hôtes, retreat venue, multi-generational home or exceptional private residence.

Puy-l'Évêque offers restaurants, cafés, shops, markets, medical facilities and a vibrant year-round community, while Cahors, Bergerac and Toulouse provide excellent transport links. A rare opportunity to restore a landmark riverside property and create something truly special in one of the most beautiful villages in South-West France.
