Charming barn converted into a loft in the heart of the Quercy region

Situated just 25 minutes south of Cahors, this former stone barn has undergone a remarkable renovation in a loft style, combining the cachet of the old with the comfort of a contemporary renovation. With around 260 m² of living space, this rare property is set in the heart of unspoilt natural surroundings, in grounds of around 4,000 m², 2,000 m² of which are separate. It offers top-quality features and an exceptional quality of life, with its generous volumes, its omnipresent brightness, its south-facing terraces with uninterrupted views over the countryside and its large detached garage of around 100 m².

As soon as you enter, the house reveals an impressive living area of almost 100 m². This central space, bathed in light thanks to large windows, features a convivial lounge with wood-burning fireplace, a spacious dining room and a fully-equipped open-plan kitchen. The property has been meticulously finished in a style that blends authenticity with contemporary touches. The ground floor also features two large bedrooms with en suite shower rooms, each measuring between 26 and 30 m², and two separate WCs. An additional space, currently being converted into a hall or lounge, could easily be transformed into a gym or office, as required. A scullery and utility room complete this level.

Upstairs, the exposed beams magnify a mezzanine leading to two additional bedrooms, measuring 24 and 32 m². These 2 bedrooms are equipped with thermo-ventilation systems for optimum comfort. The free-flowing layout, generous volumes and high ceilings all contribute to the feeling of space and well-being.

Outside, the covered terraces provide additional living space in all seasons, ideal for al fresco dining or moments of relaxation sheltered from the sun. The outside space has been designed to live in harmony with nature, with a garden planted with olive and almond trees, vines and low dry-stone walls adding undeniable charm. The water recovery system, connected to a drip irrigation system, contributes to the sustainable management of the garden.

The property is completed by a vast 100 m² detached timber-framed garage. It includes three parking spaces and a workshop, perfect for storing vehicles, equipment or craft projects.

In terms of performance, the property has an Energy Performance Diagnostic C rating. Underfloor heating, powered by a new heat pump, ensures a pleasant temperature in both summer and winter. The insulation and technical equipment have been designed for optimum comfort and low energy consumption.

The immediate surroundings are unspoilt and unoverlooked, guaranteeing total privacy. The absolute peace and quiet of the surrounding countryside contrasts pleasantly with the proximity of amenities: shops, services and schools are less than 10 minutes away by car. Cahors, a city of art and history, is just 25 minutes away and offers fast access to the infrastructure, railway station and motorway routes.

This unusual house, combining the charm of an old building with contemporary elegance, will appeal to lovers of unique properties looking for a serene and inspiring place to live. A rarity in the area, it represents a unique opportunity to acquire a property with character that is warm, functional and resolutely turned towards nature.
