Houses With Beautiful Terraces and Gardens

Aude

Boasting spacious 11,000m2 grounds, this single-storey house was built for outdoor living. It comprises a main house with a large open-plan living area and four ensuite bedrooms plus a three-bedroom gîte with two bathrooms. Outside is a really lovely gravelled landscaped garden with a big swimming pool and patio, several terraces with outdoor dining areas, including one with a fab summer kitchen and bar. The whole property boasts pretty views of the countryside and is close to the little village of Clermont-de-Beauregard just 20 minutes from Bergerac airport. It would make the perfect family home for buyers looking to live in Dordogne and run a gîte business. agence-eleonor.com
