Location
Nestled in a picturesque Gascon village with no shops, this charming stone property offers the perfect blend of peace and convenience. The village is well-tended and tranquil, providing a serene escape from the bustle of city life.

Property Overview:
This rustic stone cottage exudes warmth and character, appealing to those who love exposed stone walls, large oak beams, and terracotta floors. The property has been tastefully decorated in a country style, reflecting its heritage and charm. Situated next to a municipal building, the house is oriented towards its own lush, well-planted gardens, offering a peaceful and non-isolated retreat.
Previously a much-loved holiday home, this property also served as a main residence for a family seeking refuge from city life in the idyllic region of Gascony.

A vintage-style cupboard with glass doors adds charm, and there are plenty of fitted units for storage. The sink provides a lovely view of the gardens and the entrance.

Gardens:
The gardens are a standout feature of this property. They are beautifully landscaped and surprisingly expansive, offering a serene setting with far-reaching views over the valley. Although the swimming pool is currently inoperative and requires replacement, once restored, it would provide an ideal space for summer relaxation. The gardens are filled with a variety of shrubs, flowers, and bushes, creating a peaceful countryside ambiance, despite being in a village. An old stone barn with a covered parking area and a large garage/barn attached to the main house add further appeal.
