French property in Midi Pyrenees - Tarn et Garonne - Castelsagrat - Elegant & special Maison de Maître style property surrounded by fields of sunflowers

Summary:
It is very rare to find a property that not only has the triple WOW factor, the location with open space, natural beauty and palpable sense of history but here we have a most elegant Maison de Maître with a super French ambience which has echoes of the patina of a bygone age but also renovated to a high standard. Retaining its French character it is both light & spacious and has pleasant views of the gardens and countryside beyond from most windows. It is all too easy to be beguiled into inspecting properties and places that look good on paper, but upon inspection are less so, here you will not be disappointed.

Location:
Situated at the edge of Castelsagrat, a pretty bastide village which has most facilities available (so no driving 10 miles for the daily baguette!!) Also within easy reach of Valence d’Agen which has good schools, excellent shopping, restaurants, cafes, fabulous Tuesday market and good sporting facilities. Excellent base for exploring the visual and culinary delights of Southwest France and also within easy reach of Moissac, Agen, Cahors, Montaigu-de-Quercy, Lauzerte and Montcuq to name but a few. Well served by two major airports at Toulouse and Bergerac
