Where are we ? This elegant stone property with its adjacent barn is located to the north of Saint Clar in a peaceful rural setting surrounded by trees and fields and sits on a large plot of land. The property is located within easy driving distance of Toulouse international airport, the Gers (Lectoure, Fleurance, Saint Clar) as well as the Tarn et Garonne (Beaumont de Lomagne and Lavit). This lovely elegant farmhouse sits on the edge of two beautiful departments within easy reach of some of their most beautiful market towns, shops and schools. The property The house has the elegant appeal of a Chartreuse and is built in beautiful white stone. There are two entrances to the property, shaded by a canopy of trees, and set back from a rural lane with barely any passers-by. There is a generous front garden, and a vast stretch of land to the rear with a field and pond, and views over open countryside. The main door opens onto a long hallway which runs the length of the property. In the extension of the house, there is a stone barn with two levels, as well as an adjoining barn. Behind the rear wall of the downstairs property there is access to a large barn. The ground floor comprises: A lovely wood-paneled reception room is inspired by the 18th century “Jane Austen” style drawing-rooms, renowned for their deep blues and reds and a period of history unafraid to use a vibrant splash of colour. This lovely blue backdrop creates a warm and inviting space and offsets the art work on the walls beautifully. There is a lovely harmony between the elegant interior and the pretty gardens seen from the French doors and windows. The kitchen is simple and charming with a wood-burning fire. The furniture is rustic and the ambience deliberately stripped back and somehow intrinsically restful. This is not a “fitted” kitchen but made up of individual pieces of furniture. To the front of the downstairs hallways there is a spacious room which could be used as a ground floor bedroom, currently set up as an artist’s atelier. To the rear of the hallway we find a downstairs storage/pantry area, cloakroom and WC. From here, one could choose to open the property up into the barn (and use this space to develop the property - relevant planning permission would be required). The first floor comprises: A long upstairs hallway accessed via a recently-fitted wooden staircase in beautiful pale wood. Two bedrooms currently used as children's bedrooms are interconnected by a shared shower-room, and both rooms are also accessible directly from the central hallway. These bedrooms are cosy being set beneath the slope of the roof, so ideal as children’s bedrooms. A first-floor master bedroom sits along the hallway. A beautiful upstairs bathroom with a sumptuous washbasin, free-standing bathtub and upstairs laundry-area hidden behind a screen with a washing-machine and dryer, is reserved for use by the parents (the other two bedrooms sharing a shower-room). At the far end of the hallway there is a separate upstairs WC and access to the upper level of the adjacent barn, where the property could be opened out, subject to relevant planning permission. The Gardens With almost 6 hectares of land the property has several water sources and a natural pond. There is a lovely flat stretch of arable field to the rear and pretty views all around, with many mature trees.

This lovely old stone property has belonged to the same family for generations. With a walled garden with a pool, and stunning views over the Gascon countryside, this spacious Gascon manor house occupies an enviable position high up on the ramparts. Its central village location ensures easy access on foots to the local shops, restaurants, and tea-rooms. With several generations of the same family owning the property, we were touched by the family history recounted by the current owner. She tells how her father used to pass by the house every day as a schoolboy, from the farm where he lived, and would always vow to himself: “one day this house’ will be mine!” Such was the power of his manifestation, that some years later, as a young man, he purchased the house for his wife and family. One can easily imagine how inspiring this house might be to a child, sitting in one of the most unusual and enviable places in the village, and so impressive in size. We hope that we can find a new owner for this property, who will be just as delighted and excited by this acquisition. Let’s look at the property in more detail: The original front door opens from the street, onto an impressive 44m2 central hallway. With a door to the rear end of the hallway, opening on the garden, the hallway gives access to each of the reception-rooms. To the left of the main door, there is a large 45m2 reception-room, filled with light from the French doors that open onto a raised terrace, and with a view over the surrounding countryside and gardens. This raised terrace area is one of the property’s most lovely features. Along the hallway, next to the main reception-room, there are two bedrooms on the ground-floor both with a fireplace. To the far right of the hallway there is a lovely room with wooden panels and decorative lead windows. This room was used as a music room, or a formal dining room, and overlooks the garden. The kitchen is positioned close to the main entrance, close to the grand staircase. It is the heart and hub of the house. The kitchen is typical of a bygone era, with space for a large dining table Infront of the fire, and despite its rather dated appearance, full of charm. There is a door from the kitchen to the street. There is also a separate cloakroom and lavatory in the main entrance. Behind the kitchen there is ample space for storage in a rear cellar, where the boiler is situated. In days gone by this section of the property was fondly nicknamed “The Shop” or “Le Magasin” by the family, because it was so spacious and with so many shelves, anything practical required here could be found in this area of the house. A graceful staircase ascends to the first floor, where we find a mirror image of the grand hallway below. This property is truly a fine family home, with five double bedrooms on the first floor, each with a bathroom. The previous owner built each of his daughters a bathroom. Three of these bedrooms have their own individual character and secret treasures, with each room opening out into a “secret” room behind. The perfect house for children to lose themselves in, with a game of Hide and Seek. On the second floor, there is a large attic. This spreads across the entire top floor, and could potentially provide additional space for conversion, relevant planning permissions permitting. Below the large garden terrace there is a garage and additional storage area.

The property is set in a residential area, a short drive from the market town of Saint Clar; famous for being Gascony’s biggest producer of garlic. This is a town which has burst into life in the last few years, where most villages are losing their shops, Saint Clar has seen the addition of a fabulous library, a tea-room, and an organic vegetable shop to its existing commerces : two well established restaurants, a café and a pharmacie which provides every potion and lotion you could wish for (French pharmacies are always the best!) Shops are dotted around a quintessential French square, with a covered market-place, where in the summer months local festivities, including melon and garlic festivals are held. There is some dancing and a lot of wine. In the other direction, there is Lectoure. The most searched for word on Google in Gascony is the word Lectoure, which remains one of the most vibrant towns in the area. Stunningly beautiful, with a cinema, theatre, a blossoming array of sumptuous antique shops that would make Aladdin’s mouth water, and a number of restaurants and a tea-room specialising in delicious home made chocolates. Finally, for larger shops and supermarkets and one of the most active and visited markets in the Gers, there is Fleurance. The Approach to the Property It is important to understand that this is not an isolated property. Although private it nestles at the heart of a small hamlet with two neighboring homes. To the front of the property the lawns are dotted with cherry trees, and the pigeonnier is well shielded from view by a canopy of leaves. From the rural lane leading to the property the trees have sprouted up to provide a leafy and protective screen, so very little of the tower is visible to passers-by. A driveway winds to the end of the plot where we first catch sight of the pigeon tower - a surprisingly large edifice for anyone familiar with local architecture. A swimming-pool has recently been built to the front of the terrace where a Bouddha in Lotus position contemplates the clear blue waters, an invitation to take a seat under the covered terrace area and contemplate the roof tops above. Inside the Property The main entrance opens directly onto a central reception-room where a small entrance-hall has been partioned off for shoes and coats. There is a newly fitted fireplace at the far end with a pellet burner seated on a terra-cotta plinth with a decorative brick backdrop. A newly fitted staircase ascends to the first floor. In the exposed stone wall to the left, (still on the ground-floor for the moment) we enter the : Kitchen This spacious room comprises both a dining-area and a kitchen area with a door to the terrace and pool and two windows overlooking the garden. With a terra-cotta floor, and exposed stone walls, this room (like all the others in the property) is immaculate. To the far end of the kitchen there is a practical utlity-room for the washing-machine and dryer; a downstairs WC with a wash basin, as well as a walk-in pantry. Downstairs Bedroom A spacious master bedroon is situated on the other side of the central reception-room. This room has sliding doors to the terrace and pool area and a sumptuous bathroom with a claw-footed bath tub, a walk-in shower and WC. The configuration of the ground floor is such that it is possible to live entirely on the lower level, navigating from the kitchen, main reception and poolside bedroom as if in a one-level appartment. That said, lets raise our wings and alight on the first floor: The first floor is accessed via a solid wooden staircase, opening out onto a spacious first-floor sitting room which occupies the same floor space as the kitchen below. The heart of the house being essentially a symmetrically square tower! The first-floor reception room is currently reserved for the owners’ entertainment; as a music and television room. In essence, this room lends itself to anything and provides a private space from guests in the main living-room. A window in the wall (a quirky feature of this property) opens out onto the mezzanine. The staircase continues up to the top of the tower where an impressive bedroom is crowned by a glorious roof-top, the exposed beams criss-crossing above our heads where once feathered friends from years gone by perched up high. This room is the delight of the owners’ grandchildren, jolly paper ballons in jaunty reds and oranges float beneath the beams. When lying in bed one looks up into the painted rafters and expects to see the stars. There is a fairytale appeal to any tower; and the owner assures us this makes a great den and the princesses who visit relish their magical room. One quirky point to mention : whoever painted the beams had a sense of humour. The paint colour is Farrow and Ball’s PIGEON. This roof top bedroom has an ensuite shower-room and separate WC. We complete our tour of the property with a look at the mezzanine and third bedroom, ascending the second wooden staircase in the reception room. The mezzanine provides a cosy nook to watch TV or read, and from here we access the third bedroom. In perfect decorative order and with a small ensuite bathroom this room/mezzanine provide intimate guest quarters. Outbuildings The property has a handy wooden shed in the garden with plenty of space for tools and mower.
