Leggett Immobilier Independent Agent, says :
With just over 30 minutes to the centre of Toulouse this house is in the perfect position to enjoy the city life when you want, and benefit from the pretty Haute Garonne countryside and spectacular mountain view when you don’t.
The house was built in 2001 and was featured in a French building magazine. It’s not often that you see the photos of the house as it is being constructed. This is a well designed house with some great features. The large patio doors open up on to the large wooden terrace which extends round the house and includes a newly installed hexagonal wooden pool.
The front door leads into the main living space which includes a large sitting room, dining area and kitchen. The wooden roof structure is apparent here. This is a large and airy room which benefits from the sun throughout almost all the day. Here there is a staircase to an office space. At the back of the kitchen is a walk in larder. In here is a modern and efficient reversible heating /air conditioning heat exchange unit.
A corridor from the main living room leads to the 4 bedrooms (1 with en-suite shower room), family bathroom and the substantial workshop.
The mountains are around 1 ½ hours away by car. The motorway to Toulouse and the SNCF station are just five minutes away.

The Haute-Garonne department stretches right down the middle of the Midi-Pyrenees and is home to both a bustling metropolis in the shape of Toulouse, and a rural landscape of undulating hills and valleys. It has the fastest growing population in the region thanks to its universities and aerospace industries.
The department accounts for around half the population of the entire region, the majority of whom reside in the capital, Toulouse. The north is comprised of an undulating landscape with small hills and valleys, while the south rises up towards the Pyrenees.
Toulouse is the capital of both the department and the region. Toulouse was once part of the Languedoc, but following a restructuring of boundaries in the 1960S it fell into the Midi Pyrenees region, leaving some inhabitants with an identity crisis!
Toulouse is a crucial centre for education in the region with more students than any other provincial city in France. Toulouse is known as 'la ville rose' or 'the pink city' due to the predominant colour of the bricks used in the architecture, and it has been something of a success story since World War II, heralding major innovations in aerospace and other advanced technologies.
St Gaudens in the Garonne valley is the traditional capital of the region. It is a cultural and historical gem thought to be one of the prettiest towns in the region. The surrounding area is abundant with a number of castles and ancient churches.
Toulouse has its own airport, which makes getting there very easy, especially when there are so many airlines arriving from various European destinations including the UK. The TGV train service also stops in Toulouse, and the A20 allows easy access to the North to Paris.
The region has seen a substantial increase in property prices over the last few years. Toulouse is naturally the most expensive city in which to have a property, but most foreign buyers have chosen to buy french property in the more relaxed suburbs where their money stretches further.
