An 18th-century Italian-style chateau with tree-dotted grounds and a swimming pool, 50 minutes from Toulouse. The property extends over 1.5 hectares; its history spans nine centuries. It comprises a chateau consisting of an avant-corps and a prominent wing, an independent building with several vaulted rooms at its base, a terrace overlooking the parklands with a long swimming pool bordered by an annex, the caretaker's cottage of approx. 100 m² and a 1930 theatre. The main entrance is through the east gate. Framed by two high brick pillars topped by terracotta pinecones, the large automated gate opens onto a gravel courtyard providing parking for several vehicles. To the left, a path runs across a generously wooded stretch of garden, winding its way down to the lower part of the grounds. Two stone sphinxes and several terracotta putti adorn the balustrade of the first terrace. In the south-east corner of the terrace stands an independent square 15th-century lodge, parts of which are listed. Several doors to the right of the entrance provide direct access from the courtyard to the main section of the chateau. To the west of the property, a more discreet gate leads to the other part of the grounds. To the right, the elongated swimming pool is bordered by an annexe building with brick and pebble walls, a technique traditionally used in the region. A terrace hidden from view stretches out from this building. The driveway leads to a large terrace with a terracotta tile floor offering a panoramic view over the wooded valley.
