Outstanding Bordeaux hobby vineyard estate with guesthouse

We are excited to bring this immaculate hobby vineyard estate to the market. It has a total of just over 4 hectares of which approximately 3 hectares are around the house. Just under 2 hectares are planted with Merlot vines on perfect sloping terroir making an outstanding red wine. The owners have a contract with their neighbours, internationally renowned winemakers, who tend the vines and make the wine for them to the owners’ specification. This arrangement works perfectly for anyone who wants to own a vineyard but who doesn't want the complications and stresses of managing the work involved. The chateau, which sits in the heart of the vineyard, is a beautiful 18th century property renovated to the highest standards and beautifully furnished. There are 15 rooms across a floor area of 561 m², including 5 bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. 4 of the bedrooms are air-conditioned and each one has a separate dressing room. There is a 60m2 fully fitted bespoke kitchen/ breakfast room with open fireplace, sitting room, dining room, TV/games room, wine cellar, library/study, laundry/ boot room. The complete infra-structure of the house was redone in 2019/20 including the electrics, plumbing, heating, drainage and the roof of the chateau. There are new shutters and new bespoke hard wood double glazed French doors. The house is fully insulated, and benefits from mains gas central heating with instant hot water. The features and woodwork are of the finest quality throughout. There is an enclosed front courtyard with integrated watering systems and landscape lighting. On the rear side of the house there is a large private garden surrounded by vines and patio with a heated swimming pool (5 x 10 m), with an electric concealed cover and water treatment by Bio UV. There is a robot to keep the pool clean, and a heat exchange pump to regulate the water temperature. From the terrace around the pool there are beautiful views over the valley and surrounding vineyards below. There is a 6 x 11 m covered decked terrace for al fresco dining complete with sitting area and outdoor furniture. Perfect for admiring the sunset. The property comes with a top quality 3-bedroom guest house/ gite of 135 m². This is very successfully let for 2,650 euros a week in high season but could equally work as a guest house for friends and family. It consists of 3 bedrooms each with en-suite bathroom/ shower room, a large sitting /dining room, fully fitted kitchen all with travertine stone floors throughout. There is a private salt water swimming pool (6 x 3 m) for guests, and a terraced garden overlooking the vines. There are a number of stone outbuildings for wine making (winery of 220 m²) and storage, a large garage for 2 cars, and other stores. There are 3 wine vats which are not currently used, but which are in good condition. This is a ‘must see’ property for anyone passionate about wine and wanting to have their own small slice in one of the foremost appellations on the right bank of Bordeaux.
