Set in rolling hills and fields on a high point in Agnac, Quatre Chênés enjoys excellent views over beautiful gentle countryside, especially to the west. The west verandah is a superb place to wine, dine and chat in peace and quiet late into the night, or you can swim, play boules or table tennis.
Quatre Chênes is a fine stone built property, which although modernised and very well finished, still carries memories of its original construction as a large barn. It stands in several acres of well tended land, with a private swimming pool close by to the north, and the boules court to the west under the oaks from which the property takes its name.
