Executive Summary & Investment Overview

Offered at €980,000, Montague Court is an exceptional, fully operational executive real estate and hospitality portfolio located on the peaceful edge of Riberac (postcode 24600), in the Dordogne department of southwestern France. Spanning approximately 14,200 m2 (over 3.5 acres) of fully fenced land, this sprawling estate is known locally as 'Paradise'—celebrated as one of the largest and most impressive properties within easy walking distance of the town center. While set in a tranquil, rural-like sanctuary, it benefits from complete modern municipal infrastructure, including mains water, mains gas, and mains electricity.

The scale of Montague Court makes it far more than a standard residential home; it represents a turnkey business opportunity with extensive existing revenue streams and high-potential expansion capacity. The property seamlessly blends a elegant 6-bedroom primary residence with three independent guest cottages (gites), a dedicated indoor function room, an outdoor event marquee, and robust recreational infrastructure.

The transaction includes all furniture, appliances, and fixtures for the guest cottage and gites, enabling immediate business continuity for self-catering operations (the main B&B residence will be delivered unfurnished).

ABOUT THE AREA

Riberac is a charming, historic commune situated in the Dordogne department of southwestern France, within the picturesque Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. Nestled along the meandering banks of the Dronne River, the town serves as the capital of the Val de Dronne area, often referred to as the gateway to the Perigord Vert. Its location is characterized by rolling hills, lush agricultural land, dense oak forests, and peaceful river valleys that draw visitors seeking an authentic countryside escape.

Historically, Riberac developed as a key market town, a reputation it proudly maintains into the present day. The town's historical center features traditional limestone buildings, narrow streets, and notable architectural heritage, including the 12th-century Church of Notre-Dame, a striking former collegiate church with imposing Romanesque features. Every Friday morning, Riberac hosts one of the largest and most famous open-air markets in the Dordogne, transforming the town square into a bustling hub filled with regional specialties, fresh produce, duck delicacies, local cheeses, and seasonal truffles.
