Le Mas Fronsadais is a graceful country retreat where heritage and contemporary comfort come together with quiet confidence. Surrounded by glorious private gardens, this beautifully renovated Girondais mas unfolds like a well - kept secret, its timeworn charm reimagined through thoughtful, modern design. Light - filled interiors flow easily between generous living spaces, with polished materials, sleek finishes and original character at every turn.
Inside, the house offers space and calmness in equal measure. Four elegant double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, create an intimate sense of privacy for up to 8 guests. A conservatory catches the morning sun, while a stylish dining room and welcoming kitchen make leisurely meals a daily pleasure. The cinema room invites relaxed evenings, while the private gym and sauna offer moments of retreat.
Outside, life centres around the striking 8 - metre pool and its shaded poolside summer kitchen with a barbecue and plancha for laid - back alfresco dining. Whether you're stretched out on a sun lounger, cocktail in hand, or sharing stories around the table as twilight settles in, Le Mas Fronsadais lends every hour a sense of ease and occasion.
Perfectly placed on the edge of a small village, the mas offers countryside charm with amenities just a stroll away. A five - minute walk leads to a grocery shop and café bar; a short drive brings you to a bakery, supermarket and fresh local produce.
Wine and food lovers alike will delight in being close to Libourne and Saint - Émilion, while Bordeaux's cultural riches and Michelin - starred restaurants are just a little further. After a day visiting vineyards, gather for al - fresco meals accompanied by some of the finest wines in southwestern France.
An ideal setting for visiting Saint - Émilion and Bordeaux, Le Mas Fronsadais is located on the edge of a small Gironde village, a short walk from a grocery store with daily bread and a café bar. Just a little further, a 2 - minute drive brings you to a boulangerie, small supermarket, fresh produce shop and fishmonger, ideal for stocking up on local delights.
Just 20 minutes away lies Libourne, a lively riverside town renowned for its historic centre and bustling market, held in one of France’s oldest squares. Spend your mornings browsing colourful stalls and afternoons gliding along the Dordogne River on a scenic boat trip. For wine lovers, the legendary Saint - Émilion, just 25 minutes from the house, beckons with cobbled streets, acclaimed vineyards and welcoming wine merchants.
Further afield, explore the cosmopolitan delights of Bordeaux, a 35 - minute drive away. Here, hypermarkets and high - end boutiques share space with world - class restaurants, grand squares, and captivating museums.
Venture north instead and you’ll discover Blaye, a fortified town on the Gironde estuary with impressive citadel ramparts (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and waterside charm.
For a refreshing change of scenery, the Atlantic coast is within easy reach. Enjoy a day at the beach in Royan or catch waves at the famed Lacanau Plage, both under 90 minutes away. Alternatively, lose yourself among the lakes, sand dunes and pines forests of the Médoc Peninsula, a region as celebrated for its wines as its wild natural beauty.
