A contemporary oasis with a southern flair

“Villa Loca”

In Quinsac, in the heart of the Périgord Vert region, this property, completed in 2009, goes all out. Located a quarter of an hour from Brantôme, the Venice of the area, Saint-Jean-de-Côle, one of the most beautiful villages in France, and the iconic Villars Cave, a gateway to prehistory, it offers 450 square meters entirely dedicated to freedom.

Built in a “U” shape, like a protective horseshoe, the house embraces an intimate patio where time slows down, evoking the Mediterranean.

From the moment you enter, the tone is set: the floor is covered in light, shimmering tiles that reflect the flood of light pouring in through the colossal bay windows.

To crown this immense living space, there’s no low, dreary ceiling: a magnificent timber frame of warm wood rhythmically punctuates the volumes and reaches for the sky, highlighted by a myriad of spotlights like a starry night sky. The space is so vast that a hammock has found its place.

An immaculate open-plan kitchen, its black granite worktop contrasting with the omnipresent light, faces a table of titanic proportions, just waiting for your family and friends for your evening feasts.

The Hacienda-inspired ambiance promises delightful breakfasts sheltered from the wind and prying eyes. The flow is seamless, each wing whispering to the outside world.

As for the bedrooms, both the upper floor and the ground floor offer a truly unique and inviting atmosphere. Saffron and crushed strawberry hues enliven serene bedrooms and thoughtfully designed bathrooms, perfect for starting your day with a boost of energy and cheer.

The ascent is via a curved staircase leading to a mezzanine overlooking the entire space, a true observation post on the ground floor.

Why chase the tropics when paradise is right here at home?

In the adjacent wing, beneath a magnificent vaulted ceiling, a delightful and comfortable swimming pool slumbers, its crystal-clear water inviting relaxation 365 days a year.

Maintained with bromine and surrounded by underfloor heating, it is complemented by a spa, adding to the already generous array of amenities that will delight guests of all ages, summer and winter. Meanwhile, the airy, suspended chairs and the sun-drenched pool transform the space into a terrace at the slightest break in the clouds, blurring the lines between indoors and outdoors.

To house your car bodies with panache, the building reveals a garage so immense and with such an intense checkerboard pattern that one would almost hesitate to drive in it, preferring to use it as a giant chessboard to move the bishop or the knight.
La Belle also has her head on her shoulders: an impressive solar roof helps reduce energy bills while paying a knowing nod to Mother Nature.

Eco-responsible, it leaves an energy and financial footprint that will satisfy even the most demanding.

Dehumidification system, water softener, ionizer, working well, heat pumps, geothermal energy, storage battery, generator, underfloor heating, reversible air conditioning, central vacuum system, burglar alarm, etc.?the list of numerous features is as long as a minister’s arm.

Dare to go big! A home designed for epicureans who love the open road, for those who like to write their own story outside the box.

Warning! Acquiring this villa carries a serious risk of being invaded by friends every weekend, regardless of the season!
