Midi-Pyrénées, Gers, Marciac, France

Tucked away at the end of the Gers’ peaceful country lanes, just five minutes from an historic bastide village with artisan shops & restaurants, this beautifully restored Gascon country home in one of the Gers' most desirable areas is a perfect combination of authentic character with the comforts of modern living.

In the same family for over 20 years, the property is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens with breathtaking views towards the Pyrenees. The property offers approximately 270 m² of flexible accommodation, making it equally suited as an stylish family home, a multi-generational residence or a boutique bed and breakfast. Thanks to its proximity to Jazz in Marciac, Tempo Latino in Vic-Fezensac, the Mirande Country Music Festival and many other regional attractions, it has previously operated very successfully as guest accommodation.

The location also offers easy access to Auch, the departmental capital with straightforward connections to Toulouse International Airport.

A traditional gas-fired AGA and wood-burning stove create a wonderfully warm atmosphere throughout the seasons, making this a true family gathering space.
