In the serene hills bordering the Lot River, where light caresses the ancient facades, stands a multifaceted residence—a place steeped in history, charm, and promise.Imagine yourself stepping through the gates of a building dating back to 1450, the former residence of the Bailiff, nestled in the heights of the Lot Valley, above the hamlet of Le Port, just a few minutes' drive from the picturesque village of Vieillevie.You will discover a spacious property of approximately 400 square meters of living space.Behind its stone walls and generous proportions, a thousand details unfold, testifying to meticulous care taken in its restoration: patinated parquet floors, exposed beams, an antique fireplace in the large 70squaremeter living room, a pleasant 35squaremeter kitchen, a 40squaremeter master suite with two dressing rooms and a private bathroom, a 17squaremeter laundry room, and a 65squaremeter inner courtyard that invites tranquility.Around the fortress's inner courtyard, five spacious bedrooms (23 to 31 m²), a family room, a living room/kitchen that can be converted into a dining room for a bed and breakfast, and another family room awaiting renovation have been successfully developed and operated.Depending on demand, these can be used as a bed and breakfast (6 rooms) or as a selfcontained gîte for 16 people.Everything is ready for guests: furniture and linens will be provided with the property.Creating a luxury hotelstyle service is entirely feasible.But it is outside that the place truly reveals its magic. The grounds, a veritable landscaped haven, unfold their charms: palm trees, chestnut trees, ornamental trees, greenhouses dedicated to plant cultivation, a vegetable garden, and fruit trees. Below, the crystalclear swimming pool enjoys a prime position overlooking the Lot Valley – alongside it, a summer kitchen, panoramic terraces, and a horizon that stretches across rolling hills.The region itself, nestled between the Aveyron and Cantal departments, belongs to those rare places where time seems to slow down, where medieval villages like EntrayguessurTruyère, Montsalvy, or Conques in neighboring Aveyron, come alive with their summer festivals.The surrounding mountains, gorges, valleys, and forests offer an endless array of opportunities for walks, canoeing down the gentle waters of the Lot River, or simply enjoying moments of quiet contemplation, watching a bird in flight or the reflection of a tree. This property is much more than a house: it's an inheritance, a haven of peace, a place to pass on and to live to the fullest.It appeals to those who dream of a timeless lifestyle, yet with all modern conveniences, a tranquil place to welcome tourists, or a peaceful retirement.Contact me to arrange a private viewing and discover, more than just a house, a soul.
