LOCATION: Close to major roads, just 15 minutes from the center of Toulouse and 20 minutes from its international airport. It's secluded and vis-à-vis-free, yet just a stone's throw from the amenities of a typical village in the Toulouse region. We're just 5 minutes from a famous golf course. The freeway is 5 minutes away.
DESCRIPTION: This magnificent Château, with its rich historical past (of which we will provide a written description), is accessed via a long bridleway of majestic plane trees. Having emerged intact from the Wars of Religion and the French Revolution, this château is one of the oldest and most storied in the region. It has been preserved in its original state.
Built between the 13th and 17th centuries, it is typical of the Toulouse region, with alternating pink brick and stone as the main ornament on its facade. Its architecture offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Once you've passed through the superb gate, you'll discover a large courtyard opening onto a living space of approx. 1,200 m2, a janitor's cottage and outbuildings of over 2,000 m2, including stables, cellar, reception and exhibition rooms, orangery, swimming pool (10 x 15), park and pond. A passageway leads to a second courtyard with arcades known as the Menagerie.
