Overview A stylish and spacious four-bedroom stone house on two floors, restored to a high standard and set in 5,000m2 of gardens with a pool and views of a charming hilltop village. This house really has it all. It is pretty, peaceful and perfectly located, as it sits equidistant to the chic town of Lectoure and bustling Condom, both of which are a mere 10-15 minute drive. There are far reaching countryside views from every aspect of this property, and key features include its stunning fitted kitchen and large living room, complete with fireplace and double aspect French doors leading out onto the pool and outdoor entertaining area. Adding to its appeal, is the fact that this house not only looks fantastic but is practical and economical too, with underfloor heating throughout most of the property, double glazing and a modern pellet heating system. The setting We approach this delightful home off a quiet country road in the north of the Gers, which is surrounded by cypress trees and has a distinctly Tuscan feel. Entering the private double gravel drive with gardens either side we are immediately struck by the sense of space and beauty of both the house and the surrounding environment. A travertine pathway leads us around the side of the house underneath a stainless-steel pergola, to a glazed porch and the main entrance. This entrance opens into a smart hallway also with travertine tiled floors which are a feature throughout much of the ground floor. The main house The entrance hall is lovely and bright thanks to the glazed doors at each end. Off it is a large, smart kitchen with modern fitted base units, a double stainless-steel sink, induction hob and oven beneath. A quaint feature is the original stone sink beneath a window. There is also a breakfast bar separating the kitchen from a dining area with lovely views over the pool and gardens. Alongside the kitchen, a large living room with an impressive stone fireplace and built-in bookshelves at the far end offers real wow factor. This exceptional space is flooded with light thanks to two double aspect French doors, one of which is set into a stunning arch through which you can access a stylish terrace. The swimming pool sits directly in front and beckons you to take a refreshing dip. To the right, a bar stands ready to greet your guests for alfresco entertaining. Two bedrooms can also be found on the ground floor. One has an ensuite shower room and French doors which open out onto the garden, giving this room private access and therefore making it suitable as a B&B. A charming feature of this room is the old fireplace. Both bedrooms have staircases up to mezzanine floors with eaved ceilings, offering additional storage or dressing room space, which could also work as extra sleeping space. Also on the ground floor is a small hallway with a WC and a separate shower room. The utility areas At the far end of the house, down on a lower level, is where all of the practical spaces can be found - a laundry room, garage, an area housing all of the heating equipment. This area can be accessed separately from the garden. The first floor From the living area, open sided stone steps lead to the first floor and a long, light-filled landing. From there, two good sized bedrooms and a large bathroom can be accessed. The bathroom has a bath, a WC, double sink and separate shower cubicle. All of the rooms boast original beams and wonderful views. The garden The house sits within its own gardens, spanning 5000m2 that are mostly laid to lawn but with a fabulous mix of flower beds and variety of tree species such as olive, green oak and pine, to fig, peach, apricot and prune trees. Some terracing has been created, adding privacy and character as typical Gascoigne stone has been used and planting arranged in between. Set close to the back of the house is a swimming pool with a fabulous view. It is private and has carefully thought-out landscaping and grass around it. From here the garden gently slopes towards farmer’s fields and a small reservoir at the bottom surrounded by trees. What we love here at Bliss Pretty much everything! This property is beautiful inside and out. The setting is idyllic and it’s in a fantastic location offering peaceful rural living,and yet quick access to the most popular towns and villages of northern Gers. It has been renovated and decorated to a high standard and is a clever mix of modern comforts and original features using authentic materials. It’s practical too, so is ideally suited to a family or as a second home with no further renovation work to be done and low maintenance.

A charming four-bedroom stone house with a separate stone annexe set in private gardens with a pool and lovely countryside views, within a hamlet, close to Condom. With a separate dining room, kitchen, summer reception room and study, this is a spacious home, tastefully restored and full of character. Historically the property itself was once four cottages in a tranquil Gascon hamlet which now form one single dwelling. The property was purchased over thirty years ago by its current owners who transformed what was then a ruin into a beautiful home. The owner of the property is a talented artisan and there is evidence of his work throughout the property. The owners have carefully retained original features such as stone fireplaces and sinks, and where new additions have been made (such as the wooden handcrafted staircase) they are totally in-keeping with the style of the period. The property it is set over two floors with a central mezzanine, accessible via two wooden staircases. The ground floor offers flexible living accommodation including a spacious reception room with a fireplace, a separate dining room, a kitchen, a downstairs bedroom currently used as a gym, and three upstairs bedrooms. Opening onto the gardens there is a light and bright summer sitting room with a second kitchen area and reception room. The gardens are peaceful and nicely planted with neat lawns, a variety of trees and flower beds and different sections in which to relax, dine or entertain. With little to do in the main house, whoever buys this property will have the opportunity to complete the refurbishment of the stone annexe. This building has a new roof and concrete flooring throughout and is divided into three sections. The first has been converted into a reception room and artist’s studio. Interestingly this room would provide an excellent space as a treatment room, an outside office, or for anyone wishing to work freelance from home such as an osteopath. The groundwork has been done to easily convert the rest of the property into a second house with the addition of a kitchen and bathroom. (Please note change of usage planning may be required). FOR FULL DETAILS PLEASE CONSULT OUR BLISS IMMOBILIER WEBSITE The approach (is pristine!) On approaching the property, we are welcomed by blue shutters and smart exterior stonework on both the buildings, and the little stonewalls which double as planters for topiary and palm trees. The entrance to the property is topped with crisp light gravel, clever exterior lighting and parking for several cars. There is a zen feel to the pebble terrace borders to the annexe and a small fountain in the corner. The ground floor The main reception room The main door opens into a traditional period style reception room with terracotta floors and an imposing stone fireplace where it is easy to imagine nights snuggled in front of the fire with a good book and a glass of wine (or two). A bespoke wooden staircase directs us up to a mezzanine floor which can also be reached from a second staircase in the dining room. There is a view via a glass door to the pool and rear gardens. The study A door from the main reception room opens onto an adjacent study room with a door to both the front and rear gardens. The current owner used this room as an office, and clients were able to visit him and access the office from the car park, without having to enter the main house. The summer living room The study opens onto a beautiful summer reception room/kitchen with windows along two walls over the gardens and pool and double French doors which bathe the room in light. This room forms a seamless connection between the house and the gardens and is light and bright in style. It provides a lovely contrast to the more traditional feel of the main house. This space is fitted with a simple open plan kitchen, wooden cladded walls and a high beamed ceiling. We return now to the main entrance hall, and the central reception room, to explore the other side of the property. The kitchen & dining room The main reception room opens onto a rustic style kitchen with blue and white splashback tiles, white painted base and wall cupboards, a fitted oven and hob and a dishwasher. There are lovely views and access out onto the front garden. Step up from the kitchen into the dining room also with an original and working fireplace. The boiler room A double door from the dining room opens onto a practical storage room which houses the boiler and water heater. The ground floor cloakroom Running parallel to the dining room a hallway leads to a downstairs cloakroom. From here, we access: The ground floor bedroom (1) This room is currently used as a gym, but for anyone requiring a downstairs bedroom, this is a spacious room with a lovely view of the gardens and access to the pool. It also has the advantage of an adjacent downstairs family shower room. The ground floor shower room Alongside the ground floor double bedroom is a stunning shower room with views of the pool and a glass door to the garden. A contemporary double stone handcrafted sink, Italian shower and smart wooden flooring plus built-in shelves lend the room a sense of elegance. The walls are plastered in smooth Moroccan style Tadelakt plaster which add to the beautiful finish of the room. The first floor The upstairs snug We ascend the main staircase from the central living room. This is a magnificent space given the double height ceiling with original wooden beams and stone walls. The stairs open onto a spacious landing area where the owners have created an informal first floor snug where the children like to watch television. The master bedroom (2) From the landing we access the master bedroom with mirrored fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room which doubles as a hammam. The bedroom has large double windows with fabulous views across the garden and beyond to the surrounding fields. Bedroom (3) With access from the second staircase in the dining room, a first-floor double bedroom with overlooks the courtyard. With fitted wardrobes, a modern partition cleverly conceals a shower cubicle and wash basin. The room has an adjacent is a separate WC featuring a quirky hand painted wall mural of a palm tree perhaps in homage to the tropical planting outside and the creation of a family friend. Bedroom (4) A third, very sunny double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and double-glazed doors opens out onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the central courtyard. Outside The guest house & workshop At the entrance to the property a stone annexe sits parallel to the main house. This building has electricity, a new roof and a lovley stone façade and internal walls. The first section of this property is currently dressed as a relaxation room/artist’s studio/workshop. It is attractively furnished with a Moroccan-style corner sofa and has a softly painted concrete floor. There is potential to do refit the original fireplace which has conserved just two stone corner pillars. An adjoining room functions well as a workshop/studio and houses the owners’ tools. A third adjoining room is currently unused but also benefits from a good roof. This is an interesting addition to the property. Change of usage may be required, but it is certainly spacious enough to create a second cottage, or to use for yoga retreats, or other artistic pursuit. Equally it could be converted into a home for older children or elderly parents with ground floor accommodation only. The outside space The owners have clearly taken great pride in creating delightful gardens both at the front and at the rear. A double garage provides shelter for two cars and features a concrete floor and manual wooden doors. A charming topiary hedge archway draws us from the front courtyard to the rear gardens and to an attractive terraced area with a built-in planter for barbeque nights with friends and family. A wooden pergola provides greenery and shade and here we also find the pool equipment and storage room. Central to the garden design is a stunning salt swimming pool with smart terracing on all sides. There are different varieties of trees dotted around and lovely views beyond the garden across neighbouring fields. It is both tranquil and private. A long tree-filled lawn stretches to the rear of the property. There are two neighbouring gardens on each side, but no direct overview from another house. Our thoughts here at Bliss This is a great property that combines peaceful rural living with ease of access into the popular town of Condom. This has clearly been labour of love for the current owners who have over three decades, turned it from four stone cottages and farm buildings into a charming family home comprising many different areas for relaxation, leisure or partying. The rooms flow easily, and throughout the property there is easy access to the gardens and the pool. For a traditional stone property which no doubt dates to the 17th century or earlier, the property is filled with light. We love the garden party areas. It is possible to cook outside and host, using the summer kitchen – and keeping the house separate and private. The property works well throughout the year. The main reception room with its big stone fireplace is cosy in winter. The summer reception room a delight in the summer. Who will this property suit? This house is ideal for a family or as a second home with little or no work, other than if one were to continue to restore the stone annexe. Any other works are purely decorative, should one wish to refurbish the kitchen for example. With such easy access to Condom, this quiet rural location provides the best of both worlds. Buyers with a budget to finish the guest cottage or good DIY skills should relish the opportunity to put their stamp on this property whilst adding to the possibilities of how it can be used.

Overview A beautiful chartreuse-style stone house with guest house, set in delightful private gardens with lovely countryside views close to one of the Gers’ most historically interesting villages. Renovated to a high standard and set over two floors, this property is ideal for hosting with its seven bedrooms and children’s dormitory. Wandering around we can’t help but imagine large family gatherings or delightful soirées in the generous entertaining spaces. Outside, a wonderful terrace overlooks a large swimming pool, and a second, covered terrace is the perfect lounging area complete with hanging day bed. As well as the large living and dining rooms, the cinema room, playroom and summer kitchen add to the entertaining possibilities, ensuring total relaxation and leisure. We approach the property through grand ornate iron gates and along a winding gravel drive surrounded by gardens on all sides, thoughtfully planted with flowers, shrubs and trees. Ample parking space is available at the end of the drive. The main house We enter through double-glazed, hand painted wooden doors into a large entrance room with chequerboard tiled floor and an elegant working fireplace. Head straight through glazed double doors into a hallway from which three double ensuite bedrooms can be found. All are beautifully appointed with modern shower rooms and WCs, some with double-glazed doors that open directly onto the impeccably maintained gardens. Further along the hallway is a handy storage room with built-in cupboards, and another part-glazed door leading out on the terrace. The ground floor living areas Back in the central hallway, we enter a room currently used as a study and fitted out with handmade bookshelves. We are then drawn to a large dining room which flows seamlessly to the kitchen and spacious living room. The suspended view from these rooms is mesmerising and the owners have ensured it is fully captured from all angles by adding full width windows and central double-glazed doors along the entire wall. Light floods the room and, in cooler months, the grand stone fireplace is the perfect place to cosy up in front of a roaring fire with a good book. With its terracotta floor, laid throughout the entire ground floor, exposed beams and impressive stone fireplace this room is full of character and an exceptionally serene place to relax. At the other end of the hallway are some practical utility spaces including a WC, laundry room and more cupboards. The kitchen The modern kitchen is accessed via the dining room as well as from the outside covered terraced. It has been decorated in a cheerful orange colour scheme with induction hob, fitted oven and plenty of fitted base and wall cupboards. The first floor We climb the original oak stairs beneath a stunning glass chandelier and arrive at a landing from which the master suite can be accessed. The bedroom benefits from a large adjoining shower room with a separate WC, a vast walk-in dressing room fitted with open wardrobes and hanging rails. Also on this floor is a cinema room and and a children’s bedroom / playroom with eight sweet cabin beds prettily dressed with curtains through which we can imagine tiny giggling faces peeping. A door from the cinema room opens into a warm and immaculate attic area which doubles as a laundry drying space but could be developed into an additional room. The indoor-outdoor leisure spaces Alongside the kitchen is an attractive and inviting covered terrace area with tiled floor and original beams. Decorated in Moroccan style, with comfortable hanging beds, softly draping fabric and sheer floor length curtains which float pleasantly in the wind, it is the perfect place to relax or host an aperitif on a hot summer’s evening. Further along the terrace, a games room offers additional entertainment thanks to its pool and football tables, and next to it a summer kitchen links back to the inside of the main house. The guest house Accessed from both the garden terrace and the main gravel driveway is an adjoining two-bedroom cottage offering additional accommodation for friends and family, which could also be used as a self-contained guest house. It is modern in style and beautifully appointed, yet retains original features including wooden beams and stone walls. We enter through glazed doors into the bright living room with its smart, modern floor tiles. Ahead is a modern staircase and the kitchen, with wide double-glazed doors that lead out onto one of the two covered terraces, with lovely views across the garden and the woodland beyond. The kitchen is smart with white cupboards and marble effect worktops and a built-in fridge freezer, induction hob, cooker and cooker hood. Alongside is a WC and sink and a laundry room. Upstairs we find two large bedrooms, each en suite with large shower cubicles and modern sink units. Both rooms are stylishly decorated yet retain elements of period charm thanks to the high-eaved ceilings, wooden beams and floors. One bedroom looks out across the rear garden and the other over the front garden, both with beautifully planted flower beds alongside lush lawns. The guest house benefits from its own covered terraces, beautifully styled and with attractive privacy screens, contemporary lighting, built in seating and pretty planting. The outdoor space and gardens At the far end of the main house is a large workshop and a garage, the latter benefitting from a new electric door. The spaces could be connected but for now each offers ample storage space for garden equipment and vehicles. The setting for this property is simply delightful and the current owners have taken great pride in ensuring the surrounding gardens and terraces are thoughtfully planned and planted with a mix of flowers, shrubs and trees. The terraced areas to the rear are immaculate with pergolas, barbecue areas, outdoor lighting, stone walls and planting alongside which soften the space and create a feeling of privacy whilst making the most of the view. We head from the main terrace down stone steps to the private pool area. The pool is 20 m long and 3m wide so offers keen swimmers the chance to enjoy endless laps whilst enjoying the view. To the side of the house is a copse of mature trees providing much needed shade in the hot summer months. The owner has levelled the land beneath to make a neat outdoor space that stretches out towards neighbouring farmer’s fields. What we love here at Bliss We love the blend of modern and original charm in this property. It is newly renovated and well looked after which makes it both practical and a delight to spend time in. The ground floor flows seamlessly from room to room, and we are impressed with the current owners’ focus on maximising light wherever possible thanks to the addition of new, high-quality wooden windows and glazed doors. They also cleverly connect the front of the house to the rear gardens and view, adding a sense of tranquillity and peace. What is more, the owners’ love of landscaping and gardening has meant they have created a simply beautiful environment for outdoor living, swimming and entertaining. Who would this property suit? A large and growing family or someone who wants to run a high end, boutique-style chambre d’hôtes with the option of a guest house for longer stays. The guest house also provides the flexibility of the new owner living on site while running the hotel. The excellent location on the fringes of a charming village and in an area famed for its vineyards should prove advantageous for a tourist activity whilst also being an idyllic, rural base for setting up a permanent or second home.
