Maison Baleyssagues is beginning to feel like home
Maison Baleyssagues is nestled right in the heart of beautiful Bordeaux region countryside in the small hamlet of Baleyssagues midway between Saint-Émilion and Bergerac.
The unique ‘Y’ shaped villa was built by a renowned Dutch jazz pianist and has recently been bought to continue its artistic legacy. The property is filled with original art and antiques and with three bedrooms is the perfect size for couples or friends to enjoy some peace and quiet, or a family holiday in the sun.
Wake up to a beautiful view of the sunrise from your bedroom...
The house was designed to make the most of natural light at different times of the day, so you wake up to a beautiful view of the sunrise from your bedroom, and in the evening watch the sun go down on the terrace while you enjoy a glass of local wine.
Pick your own cherries from trees at the bottom of the meadow...
Set within a hectare of private grounds there are sweeping views of the surrounding valley and vineyards and depending on the time of year you can pick your own cherries from trees at the bottom of the meadow, or plums from trees that line the driveway.
Spectacular heated swimming pool...
The spectacular heated swimming pool is the focal point of the house with two of the bedrooms opening out onto the pool area. There are also plenty of outdoor games and a well-stocked library of books and DVDs for rainy days.
Collect your morning croissants or visit one of several restaurants...
The house is only a five-minute drive to the medieval market town Duras where you can collect your morning croissants or visit one of several restaurants.
Couple staying for the sixth year in a row...
Many of the guests come back time and time again, with one couple staying for the sixth year in a row this summer.
The ‘C’ family from London said 'This is our third visit. It's beginning to feel like home! Another wonderful stay, we had a great time yet again and are sorry to leave the peace and tranquillity behind. Maison Baleyssagues is a truly unique house in a truly unique setting.'
