Midi-Pyrénées, Haute-Garonne, St-Gaudens, France

A43037APA31 - Imagine waking every morning to a sweeping, unbroken panorama of the Pyrenees — snow-capped peaks dissolving into a sky that seems to stretch forever. This is not a holiday postcard; this is everyday life at this exceptional architect-designed residence, perched serenely in the hills above Saint-Gaudens, at the peaceful end of a private road.

The Setting

Just minutes from the centre of Saint-Gaudens — with its markets, restaurants, boutiques, schools, hospital, and TGV rail connection — yet a world apart. The property commands an elevated, south-facing position on over 8,800 m² (approximately 2.2 acres) of land where manicured gardens give way to natural, unspoilt greenery. The sense of space, privacy, and tranquillity is absolute.
From the generous south-facing terrace, the great chain of the Pyrenees unfolds before you — a living, breathing canvas that changes with every season and every hour of the day. It is a view that never grows old.

The Architecture

Designed in 1971 with a bold, clean-lined aesthetic that remains strikingly contemporary more than fifty years on, this single-storey villa is a masterclass in how to marry a building with its landscape. Long horizontal planes, walls of glass, and an open, flowing floor plan draw the outside in, flooding every living space with natural light while framing the mountain views like a gallery of ever-changing art.
The result is a home that feels effortlessly modern, bathed in warmth and luminosity — a place where architecture serves the art of living well.

The Living Spaces — 140 m²

All principal accommodation is arranged on one level, offering both ease of living and an uninterrupted connection with the surrounding gardens and views:
Entrance Hall — A welcoming introduction that sets the tone of understated elegance.
Fitted & Equipped Kitchen — Thoughtfully designed, opening directly onto the sun-drenched south-facing terrace — ideal for relaxed al fresco dining against the mountain backdrop.
Grand Living & Dining Room (46 m²) — The heart of the home. Generous, light-filled, and anchored by expansive windows that dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior, delivering the full drama of the Pyrenean panorama.
Four Bedrooms — Peaceful, private retreats; generously proportioned.
A full Bathroom & a separate Shower Room — Well-appointed.
Two Separate WCs — Practical for family and guest use.

The Grounds & Pool

Step outside onto the south-facing terrace — your private grandstand for the mountains — and descend into the landscaped garden where a circular swimming pool sits in a sun-soaked position, perfectly oriented to capture the warmth of the Midi-Pyrénées climate while you gaze towards the peaks.
On the north side, a lower-level entrance provides access to a practical basement comprising:
Large Double Garage
Workshop
Laundry Room
The generous plot offers scope for those who dream of a potager, an orchard, or simply the luxury of open, private land.

Impeccable Condition — Move Straight In

This is a home that has been loved and meticulously maintained. Within the last three years, significant, high-quality renovations have been carried out:
Air-to-water heat pump installed — efficient, economical, and environmentally responsible heating.
Roof fully waterproofed and insulated — total peace of mind.
Exterior walls insulated (north & west facades) — enhanced thermal performance and comfort year-round.
There is genuinely nothing to do but unpack, pour a glass of something special, step onto the terrace, and let the mountains welcome you home.

The Lifestyle

Where the Mediterranean spirit meets the majesty of the mountains.

Saint-Gaudens and the surrounding Comminges region offer a quality of life that is increasingly sought-after: outstanding food, excellent ski resorts within easy reach, hiking, cycling, thermal spas, historic towns, and the gentle rhythm of authentic south-west French living — all under a climate blessed with over 2,000 hours of sunshine per year.
This is a property for those who appreciate design, light, space, and one of the most magnificent natural views in the whole of southern France.

Properties of this calibre, in this position, with this view, very rarely come to market.
