Property Description

We are delighted to present this exceptional country estate, set along a tree-lined driveway in 39 hectares. It is beautifully situated on top of a hill, offering sweeping views of its land and surrounding countryside, ensuring great privacy. The property is located in the Golden Triangle, with easy access to Cordes-sur-Ciel, Castelnau de Montmiral, Gaillac, Albi, as well as Toulouse and Montauban.

The accommodation includes a striking stone-built family home (approximately 700 sqm), additional dwellings (80 sqm) providing a total of 8 bedrooms. Complemented by large outbuildings, charming gardens, open and covered terraces, a saltwater swimming pool, pétanque pitch, and an all-weather tennis court, this truly is an exceptional property.

THE MAIN HOUSE

The main house features insulated external walls throughout most of the property. The ground floor is tiled with tomette tiles, while the other rooms are equipped with underfloor heating and radiators. These rooms are spacious and together create a practical family home with extra space for guests or staff. The generous reception areas include a bright, double-aspect drawing room and an adjacent billiard room, along with a smaller sitting room, dining room, and a large kitchen/breakfast area fitted with a two-oven electric Aga and timber units and cupboards. Additional rooms include a back kitchen, office, laundry, boiler room, changing rooms for the swimming pool, and a pump house.

On the first floor, a prominent master bedroom suite features a large dressing room and a bathroom with a separate shower, twin basins, and two WC's. There are two more bedrooms in the main part of the house, each with ensuite shower rooms and a mezzanine office overlooking the drawing room. Two additional ensuite bedrooms are accessible from another part of the house.

Next to the house is an open carport that accommodates at least two cars, providing access to a games room and a large storage room.

The Pigeonnier

A pigeonnier is alongside the carport and is on three levels with a store on the ground floor, which is ideal for bikes and other equipment and a sitting room and bedroom on the next two floors.

Self-contained cottage

A self-contained cottage is located on the opposite side of the parking area, featuring a fitted kitchen and dining room, as well as a sitting room. On the first floor, there is a bedroom, a study area, and a bathroom. To the side, there is a covered BBQ area, and the old bread oven adjoins it, with a bedroom and an adjoining shower room.

OUTSIDE

The tree-lined driveway meanders through the agricultural land, passing two pretty ponds shaded by mature weeping willows at the entrance gates, culminating at the buildings.

There are charming gardens all around the house, with flower and shrub borders, roses, and a variety of ornamental and fruit-bearing trees. A large terrace, accessible through multiple doors, is located on the north side of the house, offering stunning views alongside an adjoining large wisteria-covered terrace. This overlooks the saltwater pool and its sunbathing terrace, with a nearby pétanque court.

On the other side of the garden, a charming ruin provides a peaceful retreat, and a rose-covered pergola leads back to the house. Completing the scene around the property, there is an all-weather tennis court with a trampoline.

There are several hangars and barns; the largest, approximately 138 m2, is used as a workshop and for storing equipment. A further carport is situated to the side, along with a useful detached barn for material storage, and another carport on the opposite side of the house.

THE LAND

The land is currently leased and comprises about 1,5 hectares of vines, featuring a mixture of L'Enc de l'El (a local grape) and Mauzac. At the turn of the century, the estate held its own appellation. The majority of the land is arable, with the remainder mainly woodland, totalling around 39 hectares.
