Midi-Pyrénées, Tarn, Paulinet, France

This early 20th-century stone barn, with approximately 140 sqm of floor space, offers significant development potential: it can be renovated and transformed into a primary residence, secondary residence, gîte, retirement home, or eco-friendly dwelling, depending on your project. A rare find for those seeking a natural setting and a characterful building to reinvent. Located in a quiet, secluded, wooded hamlet in the countryside, the barn benefits from immediately available land surrounding the building, offering approximately 1,710 sqm of usable space. This area is ideal for creating a garden, access roads, parking, or any other landscaping around the future home. The property also includes land adjoining the front and side, as well as a meadow of approximately 10 hectares in the immediate vicinity, perfect for an agricultural or equestrian project, or for preserving a natural area. The water meter is installed. The barn is not currently connected to the electricity grid, but the power line runs nearby, allowing for easy connection (meter to be installed). A natural spring is located on the large property; it is an asset for animals or an agricultural project, but will need improvement for optimal use. On the agricultural land, a small shed-type structure offers practical space for storage, equipment, or animals, without creating confusion with the main barn. An operational planning certificate confirms the possibility of converting the barn into a dwelling, subject to administrative authorizations (building permit, etc.). Nearby amenities include: Paulinet: local shops, school, town hall; Alban: supermarket, services, local market; Réalmont: shops, restaurants, medical services; Albi (30 min): train station, hospital, shopping center, UNESCO World Heritage Site. Numerous hiking trails, streams, and natural areas are in the immediate vicinity. This property lends itself to many projects: primary or secondary residence, gîte, retirement home, eco-friendly housing, or any project for nature lovers.
