Martel, Midi-Pyrénées 46600

A 13th and 14th-century building, with accommodations and commercial premises, in the 'City with Seven Towers' within the greater Upper Quercy region. In the middle of Martel, known as the 'City with Seven Towers', situated on the border of the Causses du Quercy regional natural park and overlooking the part of the Dordogne River valley that traverses the Lot department, the dwelling enjoys a prime location, only a few steps away from the Place de la Halle and the Raymondie Palace. Built on the corner of two streets and on the edge of a small open square, it is bathed in ample natural light and boasts a peaceful setting as well as a dynamic neighbourhood all year long. In all likelihood built in the 13th and 14th centuries, it has preserved the vestiges of its medieval origins, while its stone exteriors, elegantly weathered by time, reveal, here and there, the traces of former windows and doors, as well as trompe-l'oeil windows, which bear witness to the building's successive modifications. With four storeys, including one under its local flat tile roof, it includes commercial premises on the ground floor, an office on the first floor, a three-room flat on the second and an attic level that could be converted according to one's needs.
