Perched on the heights of St Geniez d'Olt, an ideal vacation spot between the mild climate of the Lot Valley and the serenity of the Aubrac Plateau, this remarkable property is established on a wooded park of + 19ha, in a green and preserved nature, without vis-à-vis or close neighbors and benefits from an unobstructed view thanks to its dominant position.

The whole is made up of a “beautiful residence” type manor and several outbuildings including an independent house of + 120 m² that can accommodate a tourist project. The Manor: With three turrets on the south facade, it is perched on 4 levels of equal surface area (except the attic rooms on the top floor), the floors are connected by a splendid solid wood stairwell illuminated by stained glass windows. Almost all rooms have transverse windows, ensuring plenty of light in the living spaces. The floors are covered with real parquet (except the basement, which is tiled). On the ground floor: after having crossed a beautiful stone staircase from the forecourt, an entrance hall made of woodwork leads on one side to the superb living room with fireplace. On the other side, the dining room also has its fireplace and direct access from the kitchen. At the rear, a separate toilet and a storage room, then the landing to access the upper floors. On the 1st floor: the master bedroom with its “en-suite” dressing room. On the other side, a large family bedroom, then a very pretty bathroom with separate WC. On the 2nd floor: a landing leads to 2 attic double bedrooms with recently renovated “dog-sitting” type windows, then a bathroom with WC. In the basement: two pretty bright rooms, each with its own French window giving access to a terrace of approximately 70 m², and to the exterior. One being used as a country summer kitchen with stone sink and inglenook fireplace, the other as an artistic workshop. At the back, a large cellar, cool and perfect for storing wine and other foodstuffs. On the other side, the laundry room also houses the technical room, notably the heat pump.

Close to this, the garages, for several cars with a small greenhouse next to them. And further on, in the park, in the middle of a clearing, a lean-to for storing wood. The park is mixed: maintained “in the French style” around the manor, with several remarkable trees, notably sequoias, numerous flower beds, a natural pond, etc., the woods, for their part, also have perfectly marked out for walks, bike rides, quad rides, horseback riding or mushroom picking.
