Description
A40273FV81 -
We pass through the beautiful wrought iron entrance gate and walk along one of the outbuildings, a superb stone structure adorned with ivy, setting the tone for what is to come!
Then we discover the manor house, an imposing and elegant building spread over two floors with a side wing. Opposite it are the meadows, stables and other outbuildings! A beautiful estate!
We now enter the house, built in 1803, which has undergone a superb renovation, thanks to Mr Cabrol, a renowned architect who has enhanced all the architectural features and given this residence modernity and comfort.
The large hall leads to a 33m² office, which could easily be converted into a ground floor bedroom if required, followed by a bathroom and WC. We follow the corridor that leads us to the central living room and dining room, which opens onto two terraces on either side, allowing you to enjoy the shade and the sun on the pool side. Needless to say, these rooms are beautifully lit with their custom-made arched windows! Everything is spacious, functional and magnificent, from the floors to the fireplace.
In the extension, there is a new dining area, a 23m² semi-open kitchen, a boiler room and a laundry room.
The upper floor and its private sleeping area offer five bedrooms, including a magnificent 34m² en suite, two with en suite bathrooms, and two others with a shared bathroom.
These sleeping areas enjoy a wonderful sense of independence thanks to an ingenious layout with separate levels.
The master bedroom has direct access to the ground floor.
The pool area can be accessed from the rear terrace, where you can relax, sunbathe or enjoy the shade under the trees in the garden. A completely unusual red brick building would be ideal as a pool house, storage space or dream home for children.
The house is equipped with underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators upstairs, and fibre optic broadband is available.
As an added bonus, there is a 70m² caretaker's house adjoining the main residence.
The outbuildings now offer breathtaking spaces and truly enormous potential: stables with 4 boxes covering 280m², garages, workshops, barns, on two levels totalling nearly 800m²! Chicken coop, carports, two wells, one 19m and one 7m, for rainwater collection.
Then there are 4.8 hectares of flat, fenced meadows!
If there is one place that is perfect for an agritourism or hospitality project, it is definitely this one. What's more, Castres regional airport, with its two daily flights to Paris, is just five minutes away, making it ideal for welcoming your customers and guests.
You will easily understand that this is a rare, precious and sought-after property, so we look forward to showing it to you!
Location:
Ideally located between Albi, Toulouse and Carcassonne, Castres, the birthplace of Jean Jaurès, has a population of over 40,000 and is at the heart of a catchment area of nearly 150,000 inhabitants.
Its pastel-coloured houses, suspended above the River Agout, give it the air of a ‘little Venice’. It is one of those towns with a subtle and profound charm, combining quality of life, cultural dynamism and economic development. Its famous Goya Museum, the second largest museum of Hispanic art after the Louvre, its pharmaceutical industry with the Pierre Fabre laboratories, its 8th RPIMA regiment, and its iconic rugby team: Castres Olympique, which needs no introduction!
Gateway to the Montagne Noire in the Tarn. In the heart of the new Occitanie region, the department of Tarn welcomes you and invites you to discover and embrace its culture of good living, deeply rooted in its Occitan heritage.
You will also appreciate this multifaceted department, with its museums
such as the Toulouse Lautrec Museum in Albi, the Goya Museum in Castres and the Dom Robert Museum in Sorèze.
Nearby, the medieval village of Hautpoul will immerse you in its history, and its
vertiginous footbridge will satisfy your thirst for thrills and curiosity. Not far away, the Gourjade golf course, just 10 minutes away, is a 25-hectare paradise that will be perfect for amateur and experienced golfers alike. Its SNCF train station leads to Toulouse .
Toulouse and Carcassonne airports are approximately 1 hour 15 minutes away.
Castres, with its large commercial and business airport (two daily domestic flights to Paris).
