A restored 16th-century chateau in a walled enclosure nestled in 3 5 hectares of grounds, for sale without usufruct, near a quaint village in France’s Gers department. A quiet country lane runs around 1,800 metres from Sarrant up to an electric gate. The chateau is rather isolated, but a stone building standing at one side suggests that the dwelling is not entirely cut off from the rest of the world. Its calm, bucolic surroundings are free from any possible disturbance. The chateau lies on a rocky plateau overlooking its 3.5 hectares of grounds, which are steep in some areas. These beautiful grounds are made up of woods and enclosed meadows. The edifice enjoys absolute privacy behind the high walls that run around it. The seigneurial dwelling is rectangular. It has a ground floor and two upper floors and it leads out onto a south-facing terrace that offers a panoramic view. A polygonal tower adjoins the edifice. Five of this tower’s sides protrude from the dwelling’s north elevation. On the building’s east side, a lower adjoining outhouse with a first floor extends the main section. A square tower marks the walled enclosure’s south-east corner. Two wings extend from the dwelling at a right angle to it, stretching northwards on either side of the courtyard. A covered terrace lies in the court’s north-west section, adjoining the west wing. It offers a shady poolside space for relaxation near the 24-metre-long lap pool that runs alongside the court’s north wall. All the buildings lie around the courtyard. Two towers mark the north corners of the court, which is enclosed by high walls. A carriage entrance in the east wall forms the main entry into the courtyard and a door on the west side leads to stairs that take you to a car port and a stable. On the south and west sides, the land has been turned into a counterscarp. A hexagonal dovecote built in 1630 stands in a meadow that has been turned into a paddock. Two driveways lead up to the property. One takes you straight to the main entrance and the other one runs around the enclosure’s walls to a parking area and the stable on the west side, at a level lower than the wall.
