Some homes are built to be lived in.

Others are built to be remembered.

Hidden behind secure gates in magnificent park-like grounds just minutes from Limoges, this extraordinary architect-designed residence captures the bold optimism and elegant proportions of the 1950s. It is a home that has remained true to its era, where original design has been cherished rather than replaced.

Step through the front door and you'll understand why. Rich parquet floors glow beneath the light pouring through vast floor to ceiling windows.

On the ground floor, you’ll find a large living room, with a separate dining room adjoining the well-designed kitchen. There is also a WC.

The living areas were designed with grandeur in mind. They are bathed in natural light and offer breathtaking views of the surrounding gardens.

A sculptural staircase of steel and timber rises through the centre of the house like a work of art, while soaring ceilings create a remarkable sense of space that modern homes rarely achieve.

Upstairs there are five bedrooms, one of which has its own en-suite bathroom, plus a second family bathroom, with the option to create a third.

The interiors embrace the unmistakable colours of the period. Warm oranges, golden yellows and deep violet tones combine to create an atmosphere that is sophisticated, confident and wonderfully authentic. It feels less like stepping into the past and more like walking onto the pages of an architectural magazine celebrating the golden age of modern design.

On the second floor, in the insulated loft, there is a sixth large bedroom. Here, you can create even more rooms.

Every bedroom enjoys generous proportions and panoramic views across the mature grounds, where established trees and rolling lawns create the feeling of a private country estate.

In the basement, which is accessible from inside and outside, there is a cellar, a workshop, a garage and a boiler room (oil-fired). Separate septic tank.

Outside, the landscaped park offers complete tranquillity behind fully enclosed fencing and secure gates. Here, birdsong replaces traffic, yet the restaurants, shops and services of Limoges remain only a short drive away.

This is the sort of home where you half expect to find a classic Jaguar on the drive, jazz drifting through the open windows and cocktails being served as the evening sun filters through the trees. It possesses that rare confidence of an era when architects believed homes should be both beautiful and bold.

Opportunities to own an authentic mid-century residence of this scale are exceptionally rare.

For buyers who appreciate architecture, originality and timeless design, this is far more than a house.
