The term "Charterhouse" comes from country houses occupied by monks of the order of "Charter", usually in quiet places where they went to pray and contemplate. In the south-west of France, especially on the outskirts of Bordeaux, this is the name given to country residences, often held by the Bordeaux nobility/merchants occupied during the summer months. They are often on one level with a "basement" also covering the entire length of the house, where Bordeaux merchants stored their wine barrels. Today, this style of ownership has become highly sought after, with the basement also converted into housing. The properties were built of stone, using stone blocks in the upper part and stone and mortar for the lower part (as this part was not visible) The Domaine de Vienne is accessed through an elegant entrance with electric gate and once inside the grounds, is totally private. The Domaine de Vienne was built by Victor Louis in 1750 for the wealthy British nobility. At the beginning of the 20th century the house became a Maison de Maître, in the 30s a presbytery. In the 60s, again renovated according to the modern standards of the time. The last renovation was undertaken by the current owner in 2015. The living spaces have been dressed with woodwork and moldings, fireplaces, making the receptions very elegant. As it is typical of this type of property, there are several entrances, the official entrance is on the east side. Today, hallways are now often used as dining rooms, as is the case with this property. The current owners enter the house from the west side which faces the garden and pool. The high level is the formal living space, and the ground floor is used as a guest area with rush carpets throughout (the original Gironde style floor can be uncovered) On the raised ground floor: 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms with integrated separate WC.
