Philippe Colombu Independent Agent, says :
This is really a great spot for those who want the convenience of town living and the air of the countryside. Lots of potential but totally and comfortably habitable immediately. Close to one of the most beautiful golf courses in the region at Mazamet.

The separation between town and country is reinforced upon crossing the bridge over the river. The house stands back from the lane with a large level front garden and a bonus well. At the back of the house is a much larger sloped garden separated in two by an irrigation canal. Everything you need to start a prize-winning garden as well as grow your own veggies.
The house is on 2 levels with two good size reception rooms, complete with fireplaces, a bedroom with an en-suite shower, separate WC, a little study and a very small kitchenette on the ground floor. To be honest, the kitchen is quite inadequate but the study would make a perfect spot for it. On this same level is an enclosed veranda which leads to the large gardens at the back.
Upstairs there is second large bedroom and another very large shower room with WC. The rest of the space on this level is undeveloped, but would make a nice games or hobby room.
There is also a basement albeit with very low headroom. However, it houses the boiler to run the central heating as well as the hot water service of which there are 2; one is electric so that there is no need to run the boiler in the summer.
The town offers all the amenities one would need including restaurants and cafes. This property offers great value for money and is a must to see.

The Tarn department is to be found between Toulouse and Montpellier. It is a fantastic mix of both Languedoc and Pyrenees culture. The landscape is contrasting, with green forests giving away to sun soaked vineyards. The 350,000 population enjoy a Mediterranean-like climate and a relaxed pace of life. Showers in the spring help to keep the vegetation lush.
Tourism is now the main source of industry in the department, attracting visitors to its climate and landscape, as well as the cuisine. The most popular wine comes from the town of Gaillac, which has been producing it since Roman times, and foie gras is a popular regional dish.
Albi, situated on the banks of the river Tarn is the departmental capital. It is from this river that the reddish clay is extracted to construct just about every building in the town. The artist Henri de Toulouse grew up here and bequeathed the town with the largest collection of his works. Albi has a vast cathedral, also built from red clay, and looks more like a fortress than a spiritual place of worship.
Castres is a busy town, and makes a great base for exploring the surrounding countryside. Pimgrims used the town as a stopping off point on their way to Compostela. It boasts a superb art museum showcasing works from across the border in Spain.
Toulouse, Rodez, Montpellier and Carcassonne all have their own airports with regular flights from the UK. Toulouse also offers TGV links to many other French destinations. The area also has a good road and rail network.
