Stunning 4 bed property in the countryside with pool, large garden and renovated to a high standard
Surrounded by fields and woods this beautiful property offers a peaceful rural location with all modern comforts and amenities just a short distance away.
The property has been renovated throughout to a high standard with traditional floors and bright, open rooms. There are two large living spaces on the ground floor with terraces surrounding the property, ideal for dining or entertaining whatever time of year.
There are four good sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two staircases leading to the first floor. Outside is where this property comes into its own with a fenced pool area, numerous spots for sitting in the shade or the sun and enjoying the tranquility of this rural idyll.
The village of Salles sur l'Hers with key amenities is just 5km away, the larger town of Castelnaudary is 15km and Toulouse is accessible in 45 minutes.
Nestled among gentle hills, woodland and open farmland, this exceptional property offers the perfect French country retreat. Located just a short distance from the vibrant village of Salles-sur-l'Hers, it would make an ideal family home, holiday residence or lifestyle property for those seeking space, tranquillity and easy access to local amenities.
A gravel driveway leads to the property, where ample parking is available amongst mature gardens and established trees. To the front of the house are two attractive walled terraces, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining family and friends.
Large glazed doors open into a spacious kitchen and dining room, where beautiful traditional tiled floors and an impressive timber and steel-framed ceiling create a striking first impression. The contemporary kitchen is finished to a high specification, offering generous work surfaces and quality appliances throughout.
Adjoining the kitchen is an equally spacious reception room, flooded with natural light from windows on three sides. With access to both the front and rear terraces, this inviting living space allows you to enjoy either sun or shade throughout the seasons.
The first floor can be accessed via two separate staircases and comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms, all benefiting from built-in storage, together with two bathrooms.
In addition, a substantial attached barn of approximately 100 m² provides excellent ancillary space, including a utility area and cellar. Whether used for vehicle storage, a workshop, hobbies, or further entertaining space, it offers tremendous flexibility for future owners.
The property benefits from an excellent B energy rating. A modern heat-pump system provides efficient year-round heating and cooling, while solar panels contribute to hot-water production. The septic system was installed approximately three years ago and has been designed to modern standards with the capacity to add an additional bedroom.
The swimming pool, situated to the front of the property, provides the perfect place to unwind whilst enjoying views over the surrounding countryside. Fully enclosed for safety, it is equipped with an easy-to-maintain Desjoyaux filtration system. Nearby, a fire-pit area offers the ideal setting for evening gatherings while watching the sun set over the western horizon.
The gardens are planted with a variety of fruit and olive trees and provide ample space for vegetable growing or further landscaping. The surrounding area consists primarily of organic farmland, combining crop fields, pasture and woodland, creating a peaceful and unspoilt environment.
For outdoor enthusiasts, there are countless paths, tracks and quiet country roads to explore on foot or by bicycle. The beautiful Lac de la Ganguise, renowned for sailing, wing foiling and swimming, is just a short drive away.
