Description
Just a few kilometres from Lectoure, in the rolling countryside of Lomagne, this remarkable residence, built in 1805, enjoys an exceptionally peaceful setting.
Approached via a long tree-lined driveway, the château is discreetly positioned at the heart of its grounds, entirely sheltered from view. Overlooking the surrounding countryside, it enjoys beautiful far-reaching views towards Lectoure and offers an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquillity.
Offering approximately 800 sq m of living space, the property is distinguished by its elegant dressed-stone architecture, imposing slate and zinc roof and beautifully proportioned interiors.
The ground floor comprises generous reception rooms, including a travertine entrance hall, elegant drawing room, sculpted fireplaces, dining rooms and service areas. The first floor offers six bedrooms, several with en-suite bathrooms, all enjoying generous proportions, original timber floors and open views across the countryside.
The 230 sq m-plus attic space, together with extensive vaulted areas at garden level, provides further scope for development, subject to the necessary permissions.
The surrounding grounds combine mature trees, open lawns, stone terraces, woodland and an Italian-style garden. A discreet swimming pool, dovecote, former washhouse and numerous historic features further enhance the property.
Two substantial stone outbuildings, set apart from the main residence, complete the estate and offer significant scope for restoration.
Within easy reach of Lectoure and with Agen and its TGV station readily accessible, the property combines heritage, privacy and an exceptional quality of life in one of Gascony's most sought-after landscapes.
A rare opportunity for those seeking a historic residence, a discreet address and a property to enjoy and pass on to future generations.
