A manor house, outbuildings and swimming pool in a luminous clearing surrounded by 10 hectares of royal forest, 50 minutes from Toulouse . Invisible from the road, you discover the house when you turn a bend in a woodland path. It is sheltered behind a green wall of Scots pines, limes, ancient oaks, ferns and peaceful clearings. As if set down inside a bubble of greenery, it forms a discreet, almost secret unit with its outbuildings, swimming pool, pond and driveways, enveloped in more than 10 hectares of landscaped parkland and ancient forest. Most of the buildings have stone walls, some of which are rendered, and gable roofs with interlocking tiles. The three-storey residence, with almost 650 m² of living space, was probably built at the end of the 19th century and has been patiently restored after a period of neglect. Each stage of the work was guided by meticulous restoration of the original features: the old fireplaces, the oak or chestnut parquet flooring, the moulded ceilings, the stone window and door frames and the floors have been preserved or restored, with respect for the building. All of the utilities have been renewed: drainage, rainwater, pipes, electricity and heating. The main roof has been remodelled, and the roof of the annexe has been refitted. A stone pond and a fountain form a peaceful focal point around the house. The swimming pool is set nearby in a landscaped clearing, like a natural extension of the house, not far from a natural pool fed by a spring. There is also a well adjacent to the outbuildings, which still contains water. The overall effect is one of harmonious sobriety, typical of country manor houses, where practicality meets elegance. The top floor of the house, which is preserved in its original state and insulated under the rafters, offers huge conversion potential.

A 12th-century chateau with ramparts and 15 hectares of grounds, listed as a historical monument and looking down over a valley by the Pyrenees mountains. From a bird’s-eye view, the chateau seems to be perched atop a wooded hill like a sentry looking out across the undulating landscape of France’s Couserans province. Around the chateau, there is a patchwork of gently sloping meadows, woods and fields that lines the serrated horizon of the Pyrenees mountains. Your gaze, first struck by the relief of the land, is eventually drawn to the oval form of the chateau’s enclosing wall that encircles a plain mass of barrel-tiled roofs and pale stone elevations. All aspects of this chateau give the impression of a calm, dense, unshakeable unit. As you leave the local village to approach the chateau, the modern world fades away. The road becomes a country lane and later becomes a shady track. The driveway to the chateau is flanked with oaks and beeches and edged with stone bollards crowned with orbs and linked with a chain. This driveway seems like a formal route, rigorously plotted and solemnly discreet. There is no showy gate here, but just the murmur of the wind, sunrays filtered through leaves and a rare feeling of slowly ascending to a dwelling inhabited by something other than everyday life. At last, the chateau’s facade comes into view between the trees. Plain yet welcoming, the chateau adjoins its rampart like a hand fitting into a glove. A door in an arch that cuts through the full thickness of the enclosing wall marks the entrance. Beyond this archway, you find yourself in an inner court, some of which is grassy. Here you can see different tokens of the chateau’s past: a well dug into the rock, the Romantic ruins of outhouses waiting to be brought back to life, a square tower, adjoining annexes and successive recesses of architecture that has adapted over time without ever betraying its origin. The chateau was built in the 12th century. In the 17th century, it was turned into a summer holiday home. Today it is listed as a historical monument. The chateau has kept its structural coherence and residential design.

This charming property is accessed via quiet country lanes that lead to forest paths or beautiful meadows. Located at the end of a road, there is no road traffic, resulting in a pristine environment and an entirely organic landscape. The quality of the renovation of this former farmhouse is undeniable and immediately apparent. Whether you're a handyman, a rider, or a dreamer, everything is here to make everyone feel instantly at ease... Workshop, tack room, horse stalls, a Provençal-style stone swimming pool, a spa in its own little wooden rotunda, a very energy-efficient house (technical information available upon request) - you simply choose according to your tastes, your mood, your desires. Please note that the entire property is fenced for large game, so you won't need to go anywhere to hear the stags bellowing. The very recent quarry is fully drained. As always, I will be delighted to be your guide here.
