Nontron Serenity

Timeless Townhouse with Far-Reaching Views

Perched above the Bandiat Valley in the historic district of Nontron, this refined maison de maître offers timeless charm and far-reaching views. Built in the 18th–19th century over medieval cellars, the home is full of original character—wood parquet, marble fireplaces, molded ceilings—all arranged across five thoughtfully laid-out levels.

Minutes from shops, markets, and artisan studios, it’s ideally situated in one of Périgord Vert’s most authentic towns.

Property highlights:

  • 4 bedrooms across 3 upper floors
  • Walled south-facing garden with panoramic views
  • Full-height attic, ideal for conversion
  • Vaulted medieval cellar + workshop
  • Original parquet, fireplaces, and decorative plaster
  • Quiet setting with walkable village access
  • 50 min to TGV, 1 hr to Limoges airport

The ground floor includes a warm hallway, bright living room with terrace access, and a fully equipped kitchen. A sculptural spiral staircase anchors the space.

On the first floor, two generous bedrooms and a central bathroom boast high ceilings, oak floors, and period charm.

The second floor adds two more bedrooms, a home office, and a second bathroom—all with long, open views.

The attic, full of light and volume, offers excellent potential.
The cellars include a vaulted medieval room and practical workshop spaces.

The garden is completely enclosed, lush with flowers and mature trees, and opens through a hidden gate onto the old rampart path. Perfect for peaceful mornings and evening sunsets.
