Exposed timber beams, tiled floors and a substantial stone fireplace give the living space a distinctly rustic character, while an eclectic mix of furnishings creates a relaxed, lived-in atmosphere.
Exposed timber beams, tiled floors and a substantial stone fireplace give the living space a distinctly rustic character, while an eclectic mix of furnishings creates a relaxed, lived-in atmosphere. Sunlight entering the room adds warmth and makes the generous seating area an inviting place to unwind after a day outdoors. The fireplace is more than decorative: the house is heated exclusively by wood, with a wood-burning stove in each room, reinforcing its traditional country-house feel. Outside, a swimming pool provides another setting for leisurely holiday days. The village of Francs lies amid the vineyards of the Gironde, an appealing area for walks, cycling and discovering local wines. Nearby, the medieval town of Saint-Émilion rewards a visit with historic lanes, wine estates and restaurants, while the wider Dordogne and Bordeaux wine country offer plenty of opportunities for markets, regional cuisine and scenic excursions.
