Description
The house has been restored with considerable care and attention to detail, retaining its original character whilst creating a comfortable and welcoming home. The accommodation is generous and well arranged, with three bedroom suites, including one on the ground floor, and a choice of reception rooms.
The principal living space is especially attractive, with a spacious kitchen and dining room opening into the salon, the two areas separated by a double-sided wood-burning stove. A further reception room, currently used as a games room, offers the possibility of a cosy sitting room or snug and connects to the glazed orangerie, creating a lovely flow between the living spaces and the garden.
The original staircase is a particularly handsome feature of the entrance hall, setting the tone for the quality of the restoration throughout.

Gardens, Land and Swimming Pool:
The property stands in over a hectare of land, with a delightful courtyard, established gardens and pasture extending into the surrounding countryside.
The land has been allowed to return to a more natural meadow environment, encouraging biodiversity, but could equally be suitable for keeping a horse or other livestock, subject to appropriate fencing and facilities.
The immaculate swim spa is set into an attractive wooden deck, providing an excellent space for swimming, exercise and relaxation.
Another particularly appealing feature is the 32.4 m² summer kitchen, a wonderful covered entertaining space overlooking the ornamental pond. With its traditional timber structure, generous proportions and adjoining preparation room, it is perfectly suited to long summer lunches and evenings with friends.
The property enjoys beautiful open views across the countryside towards the Pyrenees, providing a spectacular backdrop to the gardens and land.
Electric entrance gates add convenience and privacy.
Location:
Situated in an attractive and well-kept hamlet in the Gers, the property enjoys the peace of rural Gascony without being isolated.

This part of the Gers is particularly appreciated for its rolling countryside, traditional villages, lively markets and relaxed pace of life, whilst remaining accessible to Toulouse.
A beautifully restored and exceptionally well-maintained maison de maître offering generous accommodation, three bedroom suites, extensive outbuildings and over a hectare of land.
