It is also great for those who enjoy water sports as the rowing club of Bergerac is a short 10-minute walk away. Tennis, rugby and football facilities are nearby and of course there are plentiful opportunities for line fishing. Historic Bergerac with its charming medieval town centre offers 2 weekly farmers markets, numerous cafés and restaurants and many cultural activities.

Bergerac is a hidden gem as many of the local expats will attest. One can live comfortably here without a car, easily take the train into Bordeaux, catch a town or regional bus for shopping or sightseeing and even fly out of the Bergerac airport to London, Edinburgh and Dublin (to name a few)! It is a great town for families with multiple educational possibilities and for retirees with many clubs to join. The location in a safe and peaceful neighbourhood as well as sitting on the front row (high bank) of the river pathway ensures the absence of traffic noise.

The house enjoys unobstructed, fantastic views of the Dordogne. It is South facing and bright inside. The property has a lovely front garden and a large back garden for al fresco dining or for children to play in. There are various fruit trees (nectarine, cherry, almond, fig and olive) and flower beds.

There is room for a pool and the garage could be converted into a pool house (subject to necessary permissions). The garden is fenced and secured with a gate. The house is in excellent condition and has low energy costs, benefiting from both town gas and a reversible heat pump. It has beautiful, original pine flooring and a stunning wooden staircase.

With an open floor plan, a full basement for your wine collection and loads of storage, this property is not to be missed! Early viewings are highly recommended. Price including agency fees : 397 500 Price excluding agency fees : 375 000 Buyer commission, tax included: 6%

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £17,566 more.
