In the 16th century, this mansion was a dependency of the castle of Preignan. The master of the place, however, wanted his domain to be autonomous. This is why we find today in the house vestiges of the forge, the miller, as well as very beautiful half-timbered walls. The old courtyard is now a magnificent patio allowing the masters of the place to find a real cozy outdoor nest within the house itself. This Gascon residence is made up of five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a very beautiful living-dining room, as well as two other living rooms. We also find a large garage, a laundry room, and a cellar. For the exteriors: an outbuilding, a large pool house and its swimming pool as well as a very beautiful park not overlooked. To complete these services, the house is located two minutes from all amenities. Indeed, Preignan today offers its residents: schools, restaurants, post office, nurses, doctors etc ... and all this 10 minutes from Auch. Want charm, calm, space without being far from amenities this house is for you...

In a word, this property is all about the VIEWS. Built in a raised position and dominating the landscape, this imposing country home is positioned to admire the sweep of fields and woodland. The mellow stone walls embrace the sunsets and as is clear from the photographs that illustrate this advert, provide an ever-changing tableau of colour. The skies up here are vast. The owner shares a collection of photographs from over the years. Each one depicts a different and dramatic sunset, the colours never quite the same, all with vibrant flashes of pink, oranges, purple and red. There is a wild timelessness about this view, as it stretches far into the distance without the interruption or another house or building. Sitting on the gravel terrace and looking down at the sweep of the valley, there is a sensation of being on the rim of the world. The beloved country estate of the same family for many years, the property was a retreat to which the owner could invite friends from Paris, principally to party, and in later years to live full-time. This property was the dream of one man, who like the Great Gatsby, developed his home around his own desire for comfort, space, luxury and amusement. The rooms are vast. If you like to spread out, there isn’t a risk of ever feeling cramped here. There are some quirky remnants, the vestiges of another world. This is possibly the only property you will ever find with two 1970s bathtubs in one bathroom, positioned to view a TV screen, and with place for the bottle of Champagne. The property does not take itself too seriously, except in the serious business of space and fun. The walls are full of pictures of parties held there, and interesting people who came to feast and dance. As with all properties that are firmly rooted in another time, and place, it is fixed in time, and with regards to the bathrooms, and carpets, new owners will need to rip away the décor of the 1970s, the personality of the previous owners, and expose the bare bones of the property.The bones are good. The rooms are vast, and the property designed around a central courtyard and a long internal gallery. Some of the rooms have a more traditional feel than others, with fine terracotta floor tiles, and stone walls. Other rooms will most likely want to shed their carpets and cladding. There is a mix of styles; traditional Gascon manor house, Spanish villa, or perhaps in parts something slightly Moresque about the woodwork and the detail of the fret work. A second much older cottage sits at the entrance of the property, far removed from the main house, and provides perfect guest accommodation, or home for a guardian. Let’s begin our tour with a look at the main house The formal entrance to the property opens onto a large gallery hallway which in turn opens onto a central courtyard. The family prefer to use the kitchen entrance daily. The Kitchen The kitchen is the heart of the house, divided into three separate zones, this large and spacious room has a breakfast table, a formal dining area, and has a cosy workspace at the far end with an oven range and ceramic tiles. If you were to ask which part of the house is the most traditional, then without a doubt it is the kitchen. With thick oak beams running across the ceiling, a decorative stone sink, and a choice of traditional fixtures and fittings, this is a Gascon kitchen worthy of any French country home. Currently filled with a lifetime of bits and pieces, there is nothing minimalistic about this room, by any stretch of the imagination, and yet it still manages to feel spacious. The kitchen opens in turn both onto the internal hallway to the formal entrance and to the central reception room. This vast living space, with its fireplace, has views to the gardens through tall French windows along the full length of the room. This is a tremendous space in which to party or sit by the fire in a smaller committee. It is a family living space, incorporating an occasional study desk, and various sitting areas. In summer the windows are thrown open to the terrace, and to the fabulous view towards the vast stretch of horizon and the woodland beyond. Besides the main reception room, there is a second study or library, which in turns opens out to a downstairs bedroom and bathroom. The master suite encompasses a huge amount of surface area, with the infamous bathroom, which is spacious enough to dance in, not to mention its two bathtubs… The master bedroom is equally generous in size. Future occupants to the property might wish to rethink how the rooms are used. There is certainly more than enough space to play around with. The master bathroom could perhaps become a bedroom with an ensuite. It is certainly spacious enough. The property was designed so that the sleeping accommodation is almost entirely reserved for Monsieur and Madame, with guests retiring to the cottage at the bottom of the garden. All rooms are on the ground floor. There are no stairs; each room flowing to the next in circular fashion around a central terrace, like a Riyad. There is a guest cloak room behind a decorative wooden door in the main hallway. The Guest Accommodation At the entrance to the cottage, there is a large guest cottage, with a kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. This cottage was once the original building on the plot and is rustic in style with much smaller rooms, steps and stairs between levels and a quirky layout. The Pool There is a swimming pool and an outbuilding for storage next to the pool, with a covered terrace for summer dining. The pool has not been used recently and will need to be filled again and put back into service. There are lovely views from the pool and it sits at a good distance from the main house.

This house has been in the same family for many years and as such has been added to over time. It has been lovingly restored by the current owner, who inherited the property from her family. The heart of this house is the open plan living room/kitchen. Here we find the large pellet burner that keeps the house cozy in the winter, and the fact that the kitchen is open means that you can cook and chat with friends or family at the same time. The kitchen is entirely fitted; it is relatively small but very practical and efficient. The lovely walled terrace is accessed from this room, and is completely private. This part of the house was originally a bakery with a bread oven on the terrace. A corridor leads off the living room – here the owner has cleverly incorporated some storage space under the staircase – and here we find a very practical ground floor bedroom with an adjoining shower room. This is ideal for visitors as it is completely private and separate from the main living area of the house. A reception area near the second front door gives access to the stairs leading up to the first floor. Upstairs there is a big open plan TV room which is the perfect place to relax with a book or watch a film. It has windows along one side and is very bright in the afternoons. The bathroom has a retro turquoise bathtub and hand basin. There is a separate WC next door. There are three bedrooms on this floor; the first is the smallest, but there is plenty of room for a double bed, and attractive views out the window. The second bedroom has a large attached dressing which could be converted to a private bathroom if desired. The last bedroom has double aspect windows and a large built-in closet. Terrace The sun-drenched terrace is a haven of peace and the perfect place to enjoy an alfresco meal or a drink at any time of the day. It has exposed stone walls on three sides and attractive tiled flooring. Surrounded by a stone wall, this space is accessible both from the house and from the lane that runs just behind it. The large stone garage with mezzanine is a real plus for this house. It has plenty of room to park a large car if desired, and of course there is storage space upstairs too. On a historical note, the garage is built against the original ramparts of the village! Our thoughts here at Bliss This property is a bit quirky, full of charm and surprisingly spacious. It has been lovingly restored and decorated and is in excellent condition. We love the location and the fact that there is no work to be done – it has all been done by the present owner. This house would make a charming main residence, but it could also make an ideal second home. The village is so pretty, it is a delight to just walk around and admire all the lovely public spaces and beautifully maintained houses. It has quite an international flavour too, as it has attracted residents from many parts of France and the world. Technical details 140 m² house 4 bedrooms, including one on ground floor Large stone garage (40 m²) Walled terrace Wood, double glazed windows Programmable pellet burner supplemented by recent electric radiators Septic tank Charming historic village

Tucked away in a quiet corner of the Gers countryside sits this productive award winning Armagnac estate. The 15 hectares of carefully tended certified organic vines and manicured grounds surround the large, tastefully restored, maison de mâitre house, sold fully furnished, with attached outbuildings and a large recently constructed chai/aging cellar and pool. This is the perfect “turnkey” operation with all the ingredients you need to continue to run this successful business, as the current owners who do not live in France full time have done for two decades. Equally importantly, the offering includes twenty years of award winning stocks in oak barrels aging in the magnificent chai. The heart of any vineyard property is, of course, the terroir and vines. This property is located in the Grand Bas Armagnac, the small sliver of land noted for producing the highest quality Armagnac. The vineyards, which surround the house on three sides, are planted in Baco, Ugni Blanc and Folle Blanche, the classic grapes used to produce the finest Armagnac. The vineyard has been officially certified organic since 2012. No expense was spared by the owners in the newly constructed chai which is an oak framed building designed in traditional Gascon style and built to achieve the ideal environment for the aging of Armagnac. It includes an air conditioned central area with large glass sliding doors, which has been used to house the alambic during the distillation process—and could provide space for tastings and a variety of other activities during the remainder of the year. An open tread oak staircase on three sides with viewing doors into the other areas takes you up to an impressive large room with windows on all four sides with a view over the vineyards. It has an oak floor, fireplace and sink and could be used as an office or for hosting functions or tasting events. On the ground floor there is a sizable bottling area in the back as well as a storage room where bottles and supplies are kept. There is a bathroom on the opposite side of the bottling room and another large set of doors in the middle of the back wall that lead out to an exterior deck with views over a small pond and the vineyard. Doors on both sides of the central area lead to the two large aging rooms which provide the ideal environment for the maturation of the Armagnac. The older outbuildings house the vinification cellar where the harvest is brought in, the grapes are pressed and the juice fermented. There is also room in the remaining outbuildings for car storage and more than ample space to add additional guest rooms or a spacious caretaker quarters if desired. THE HOUSE Extensively and tastefully renovated to the highest standards by the current owners to provide a comfortable family home with all of the modern conveniences. The original features have been retained and are beautifully enhanced by the furnishings. It is bright and airy with a nice flow throughout and all the comforts for a modern lifestyle. The house is entered through the original double wooden doors to a hallway with terracotta tiles and an antique wooden and iron staircase. To the right one enters a double sized salon with a colombage wall and a very large traditional open stone fireplace with space on both sides for the storage of logs. French doors on the opposite end of the salon lead to the pool area. To the left of the entrance one finds the formal dining room which also has classic colombage walls, another rustic stone fireplace and an ancient stone sink. A short corridor leads from the dining room to a vanity and a large fitted kitchen with a restored bread oven. There is a utility room off the kitchen and ample space to have an informal dining area if desired. From the kitchen there is a step down to another room currently used for casual dining. That room, in turn, opens to a very large room suitable for a variety of purposes with a wall of windows and doors looking onto a courtyard with a fountain. An insulated racked wine storage room is at the far end as well as an interior door to the attached vinification cellar. At the other end of the corridor off of the dining room is an office that could easily be used as a ground floor bedroom as it has a full bathroom with both shower and bath. Upstairs there is an open plan central library area with a Juliette balcony. To one side is a spacious master suite with a fitted dressing room and luxurious jetted bath, separate shower and double washbasins sitting on a custom made unit. To the other side of the floor are two nicely sized bedrooms, both with large en suite bathrooms. There is a large lounge on the second floor with bedrooms at each end. This floor has its own bathroom with both shower and bath as well as views of the Pyrenees. Outside there is a large (7m x14m) salt swimming pool with surrounding wooden decking. A few steps take you to a pool house and barbecue area with ample deck space for dining al fresco or simply lounging. There are other areas of grounds which could be developed into a vegetable garden. All of this is contained in a landscaped area that provides complete privacy and room for a variety of lawn games. In addition, there is a small orchard planted to heritage fruit trees adjacent to the vineyards. SUMMARY All in all a walk into house and successful business in a quiet location but only a few kilometres from multiple towns with a wide range of facilities.
