Nicky Debens, Independent Agent, says: | | This attractive detached Gascogne farmhouse is located in a beautiful setting, 50km from Toulouse and 14 km from L’Isle-en-Dodon, in the Haute Garonne and 14km from Samatan in the Gers. Established orchard, gardens and pasture land. A must-see! | The house looks over the rolling hills and the village church in the distance while the quiet country lane is hidden away behind. From the driveway a large pained oak front door dominates the front of the house. This opens up into an entrance lobby and then the hallway which serves stairs to the first floor, the kitchen, a cosy reception room with fireplace, a cloakroom and a utility/boiler room with shower. The oiled fired central heating boiler feeds into a series of original cast iron and modern radiators throughout the house.
In the farmhouse kitchen, old beams and original fittings have been preserved and tastefully renovated in this delightful light and spacious space. From the dining area a door leads onto the perfect aperitif terrace overlooking the land and stunning views of the rolling countryside beyond. Original terracotta floor tiles in the kitchen, and throughout the ground floor of the house, are one of its most striking features.
From the hallway, a short adjoining corridor leads into an impressive 50m2 sitting room full of original features including open colombage walls, a woodburner set into an inglenook style fireplace, exposed beams and tiles floors. A second staircase serves the other end of the first floor. There are various doors from which the large courtyard can be accessed and enjoyed.
The sitting room opens out on to an adjoining 50m2 room with the potential to create further reception rooms or a use as a games room, as it currently is. There is a shower room between this and the Pigeonnier annexe.
Upstairs in the main house are seven bedrooms with two dressing rooms, two shower rooms, a bathroom and a partially finished additional shower room. This floor has been wonderfully decorated to provide a modern feel but at the same time care has been taken to retain a farmhouse feel with exposed beams visible throughout. There is great potential here to redesign the layout of one section of the first floor to create larger spaces so don’t be put off by the number of bedrooms!
The Pigeonnier can be accessed from the games room or the large garden courtyard. The two downstairs rooms and two upstairs rooms, one of which leads to the Pigeonnier tower, along with the shower room adjacent to the games room, could be transformed into a super gite. There are numerous possibilities here if you felt inclined, or you could just enjoy the property as it is!
The stunning 3.2 hectares of land surrounds the house. It is perfectly arranged with an established orchard, vine and vegetable garden, an above ground oval shaped framed swimming pool, with a wood decking surround, on one side and well managed pastures, with fencing, moving round the property towards the other side where a large open barn, with horse boxes, backs onto the quiet lane. This really is a lovely property.
