Live and share the history of Sarlat from the inside out. This studio apartment occupies the first floor of an imposing, listed private mansion nestled in the heart of the protected historic district. Once the residence of a prominent family of the Sarlat judiciary, the building was partially burned during a popular uprising in the 17th century. Rebuilt immediately after the revolt, it has preserved exceptionally rare architectural elements from this rebirth, beautifully highlighted by the current owners.
Property Highlights:
• A Remarkable Living Space: This studio stands out for its period volumes, enhanced by a magnificent French-style ceiling (plafond à la française) with massive wooden beams and wide-plank antique hardwood flooring. A grand, period-carved wooden fireplace and original wood paneling (including internal window shutters) masterfully anchor the space in the 17th century.
• A Fluid Layout: The main room easily accommodates a large sleeping area (perfectly suited for a canopy or alcove bed), a warm living/dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen section with a wooden countertop, cleverly set back to preserve the main room's perspective.
• A Discreet Contemporary Renovation: The bathroom is tucked away behind a period door. It offers all modern comforts with a large glass shower cabin, a vanity unit, and a toilet, without ever detracting from the historic character.
• Military Foundations: Reflecting its past strategic importance, the walls of this building incorporate the authentic medieval ramparts and defensive walls of the city.
Technical Specifications:
• Individual electric heating. Connected to the mains sewage system.
• Listed Historical Monument (Exempt from the Energy Performance Certificate/DPE).
• Premium location, in the absolute quiet of a pedestrian alleyway, just steps away from shops.
An exceptional property, perfect for a high-yield premium rental investment or a unique heritage pied-à-terre.
