Land and Water
Land: approximately 5 hectares part fenced, including 8,800 m² of constructible land for further development, agricultural use, or leisure activities. This property is ideally suited to equestrian projects, or for other livestock. It is well fenced. The soil has been little cultivated and is in good condition. The property possesses no fewer than five wells, all spring-fed, ensuring a sustainable and reliable water supply for gardens, livestock, or even small-scale agriculture.
Summary of Key Features
Characterful main house with modern comforts and original features including exposed beams in many rooms.
Sizeable second house ready for completion to your own specifications.
The roof structure has been treated and renovated, ensuring peace of mind.
Double-glazing throughout.
Extensive outbuildings – garages, aviary, workshop, and more.
Expansive, flexible land with building potential if desired.
Multiple natural water sources.
Peaceful rural setting with great access and further potential.
Potential and Possibilities
This property offers a unique opportunity to own a versatile estate with scope for multi-generational living, business ventures (such as guest accommodation or workshops), or simply as a large family home with room to grow. Even though the main house is in need of an update, the combination of move-in ready accommodation, a second house to finish, and extensive land makes this property a true gem for those seeking space, privacy, and the freedom to realise their vision. Some of the land could be developed or sold to help finance projects.
The village is small and quiet, popular as a place to live less than 15km from the centre of the prefecture town of Albi with its UNESCO World Heritage Site cathedral and its quaint medieval streets which are a draw for tourists and locals alike.
The village is less than 80km from the airport at Toulouse and is easily accessible via the A68 autoroute.
Gaillac is a winegrowing region providing numerous opportunities for exploring less well-known vineyards, and local restaurants offer a wide range of dishes from traditional Occitan cuisine to interesting fusion creations with a lighter style.
Rolling farmland and pretty villages give way to harder, higher lands to the north and south. Ideal country for bike rides, country walks, hacks and hikes. The Tarn valley and gorges provide ample opportunity for action and adventure on and around the river.
For cultural treats, the local festivals are fun and the cities provide a wealth of theatres, cinemas, concert venues and more.
