With a history dating back two centuries, this classically imposing building enjoys a unique position within the medieval village of Saint Emilion, boasting superb views over Grand Cru classe vineyards as well as the Unesco world heritage monuments of this stunning village. Featuring classic hallmarks of the Napoleon III epoch including elegant high ceilings, marble fireplaces and a stone, sweeping spiral staircase, the property has successfully lent itself to both residential and commercial use in its past; regularly topping the lists as a luxury boutique hotel and wine venue in this internationally acclaimed destination before the current owners claimed it as their own private residence. Firmly established as one of the world’s most iconic heritage villages, Saint Emilion attracts over a million visitors each year to its cobbled streets - drawn to its remarkable architectural and historic monuments as well as for its world famous vineyards. With three Michelin-starred restaurants and an abundance of great bistros and brasseries, the village has gained a reputation as an internationally recognised gourmet destination and its proximity to Bordeaux, together with excellent transport links, has enabled this small village to achieve global recognition. Just a stone’s throw from all the restaurants, bistros, art galleries, food and wine shops, this remarkable residence combines authenticity, charm, comfort and elegance. Boasting around 505 m² of living space plus around 40 m of wine cellars and outbuildings, this elegant Maison du Maitre guards its privacy well, tucked away from view, despite its centrality and retaining vistas over the surrounding vineyards of its illustrious neighbours as well as the tiled rooftops and stone monuments of the village. The timeless elegance of period features, enhanced by generous volumes are backed up with five-star amenities: reversible air conditioning via heat pumps, gas condensing boiler, thermodynamic water heater, fibre internet… Every detail has been carefully considered to ensure modern, refined, and discreet comfort. The property features 7 ensuite bedrooms, with the potential to add two more by dividing the two top floor suites. Wine walls line the sitting room and dining room and an air conditioned, gated wine cellar features at the end of the hallway. The fully equipped kitchen/breakfast room, with Lacanche range oven, completes the warm and functional living areas. A cosy office-library on the ground floor provides an intimate and inspiring space for work or reading. Outdoors, you’ll find 6 private parking spaces. A hedged, gravelled terrace wraps around the property, leading to a courtyard garden, allowing the possibility to add a swimming pool if preferred. A rare opportunity – ideal as a main residence, holiday retreat, or a refined hospitality project in a prominent village steeped in history. Contact: Valéria +33 6 80 27 67 40
