Description:

Quietly situated between two little villages and surrounded by acres of gardens that offer lawns, fruit trees, ponds, walkways, terraces, natural and formal areas as well as the practical log stores and garaging that a garden like this necessitates.

The main house is a study in subtle renovation valuing the nature and situation of the property. Rooms are light and airy with good volumes, the kitchen is simply furnished with a large open fireplace just for pleasure, the room has underfloor heating beneath the tiles which look as if they have always been there. The cosy snug with a large open fireplace gives onto the large summer sitting room with double height vaulted ceiling with doors north onto the covered terrace, ideal for summer dining.

The remaining ground floor rooms provide the services, a large utility room with tiled floor and doors to the north and a house bathroom with superb original claw foot bath.

The first floor has a large sunny landing currently serving as a library/reading space, a master bedroom with windows east and south and its own large dressing room and access to the bathroom. The guest bedroom to the east has a second bedroom leading from it which could be transformed into a dressing room/en suite if necessary.

To the front of the main house is a sitting area with 'pigonnier' and covered entrance, whilst to the rear is a one car garage. There are no works waiting to be done except to pop on your gardening gloves and enjoy the very best the South West has to offer.

About Midi-Pyrenees

The Midi-Pyrenees was amalgamated with Languedoc-Roussillon in 2016 to form the enlarged region known as Occitanie. We are sticking with the old region name at the moment as it is still the one most people recognise for this delightful region. Even as Midi-Pyrenees it was one of the largest regions in France, nearly the size of Austria, and as such we cover only two departments in depth being Tarn et Garonne and Haute Garonne. Our partner offices do have some properties for sale in Gers, Haute Pyrenees, Aceyron, Ariege, Tarn and Lot but their main selections are in the above named departments. This puts our houses in Midi-Pyrenees closer to Toulouse, with its easy access from the UK, than to the sea. We believe we offer our French property selection in the part of Midi-Pyrenees that most U.K. buyers are looking for.

Our Tarn et Garonne properties are located in the triangle between Cahors, Montauban and Agen. All are delightful towns to be close to and all of them sit amongst the unspoilt countryside of hills, orchards, meadows and gorges that makes this department so beautiful. When I think of Tarn et Garonne I think of wide open spaces, pretty villages, the forest of Agre (1474 hectare of forest land near Montauban), the River Garonne and long, warm sunny days to enjoy the numerous markets and lovely cafes. Buying a property in Tarn et Garonne would be unlikely to disappoint.

The department of Haute-Garonne adjoins the southernmost boundary of Tarn et Garonne where it enjoys the same soft, undulating landscape that Tarn et Garonne offers but as you head further south the landscape becomes more rugged until you reach the foothills of the Pyrenees. This diverse landscape is more forested and less agricultural than the north of the department and again enjoys the river Garonne flowing through. It also offers access
