Lovely brick house situated in the Lot et Garonne, near a small village, canal, river and a forest ideal for long walks... Coming of the country road into the drive are double electric gates leading to the side of the house and into the garden. There is a big porch in the style of a “Landaise” perfect for those long lunches in the summer month s. There is also a tobacco barn, ideal for storage and a big garage. As we come through the front door there is a long corridor with two doors to the right; one that leads to the cellar and the garage, the other to the bathroom, with an Italian shower, double sink and a bidet. To the left of the corridor is the kitchen with double French doors leading out onto a small patio that runs the length of the house. The kitchen is separated from the dining room/sitting room with big wooden double doors. The sitting room also has French doors leading outside. There is a wood burner set into the chimney, shelves and cuboards made out of stone. A lovely wooden stair case leads to the upstairs with a corridor and to three bedrooms. All three have lovely wooden floor boards, big windows and very high ceiling with some of the wooden beams left showing. At the end of the corridor is a large dressing and a smaller room ready to have a bathroom put in. A door from the corridor leads to the rest of the roof space (60m2) that has a huge potential for renovation. Central heating. Double glazing up stairs, simple on ground floor.
From the porch is another door that goes into a room used at the moment as an office, but is big enough to be used as a downstairs bedroom or snug. The garage can have one car parked in it, but has an attic area that could also be transformed into other rooms if wanted. The garden s are simple with a lovely old well, mature trees and shrubs. There are three hectares that surround three quarters of the house, and the drive way goes all the way round the house to another set of electric gates and back onto to the country road. The bustling little village “The Mas D Agenais” is only a km away, with shops, hair dressers, chemist, schools and two food shops. The Canal goes past the village as does the river. The forest is 150 m from the house ideal for riding, cycling or walking.
A really lovely house, in a fantastic condition, in an ideal location a “must be seen house”...

Location in France

The Lot-et-Garonne has been called the Tuscany of France because of its yellow fields of sunflowers, vineyards, cypress trees and red roofed buildings.

In the south-west corner of France, midway between Toulouse and Bordeaux. 2 hours to the Atlantic coast and the Pyrenees, 3 hours to the Mediterranean. This department of the Aquitaine is a must when searching for a house for sale in France. Excellent motorway and rail links and an airport at Bergerac with Flybe and Ryanair flying to destinations across England and Scotland.

An area full of unspoilt villages and bastide towns with maisons de maître, barns and village houses for sale, rivers and the canal latéral de la Garonne (part of the canal du Midi), up which the few remaining working barges still sail.

The views are expansive and comprise rolling hills and valleys of agricultural land. Much of the produce grown is well known in France - prunes of Agen, tomatoes and strawberries of Marmande, Armagnac brandy, apples, pears, kiwis and cherries. It is also a prolific wine growing area with Duras and Buzet being the most well known.

On the foody front, the most recognisable of the region is duck in its many forms such as foie gras, magret and gésiers. You can't help passing duck farms as you travel around that sell these products directly. Quite likely next to a vineyard selling their wine. Converted farmhouses are amongst many of Leggetts' properties for sale in the Lot-et-Garonne.

There are many chateaux in the Lot-et-Garonne including Biron, Lauzun, Lamothe, Scandaillac and Nerac, to name but a few. Medieval towns many of them bastides (of which there are 20) are to be found including Castillones, Monflanquin and Villereal. Top end properties such as manoirs are for sale in the department.

It is an exhilarating area for walking with much of the department marked out for ramblers and cyclists along paths where you'll meet hardly a soul. As most villages are part of these routes, it's quite likely to find one within walking distance of your French house.

All year round are morning markets in many towns and villages. The perfect place to meet friends and family over a coffee or something stronger. This really is life unchanged for centuries. During the summer months, many of these towns hold lunchtime and evening producers' markets, where food and drink is consumed in a convivial environment.

You would expect life in the Lot-et-Garonne to be unhurried. Well, it is in the winter, when, in front of the fire, we put up our feet with a glass of wine, but the summer is quite different.

The château at Duras, for example, plays host to opera, classical concerts and the occasional rock concert. There are the producers' markets, wine fairs, antique fairs, village fetes and the "vide greniers" â France's wonderful alternative to the car boot sale - a must for any collector. You could furnish your house in France!
