At the end of a long, long drive, surrounded by woods, completely private with no neighbours, sits this gorgeous fully renovated stone house. Now used as a holiday home and a rental, it was a principal residence for a number of years and it certainly has the feel of a proper home. The main older house is a beautiful classic looking building. On the ground floor you have a kitchen which opens onto a family room and a huge terrace, shaded by the old oak trees. There is a dining room and quiet sitting room, a large laundry area with an access directly to the garden, a WC and an entrance hall with a lovely wooden staircase. Upstairs there are four big bedrooms and two lovely bathrooms, with the possibility of using the eaves for spare beds. It has a lovely, family feel to it. In the garden, a stone’s throw from the house is a fifth bedroom for guests with a shower, and next to that, a 12m x 6m swimming pool and pool house. This currently rents out for 4000€ pw in the summer months, with the potential for winter lettings too. The current owners lived in this property while converting the attached wine store and barns into a large, comfortable home. The two houses communicate by a lockable door so when you have family and friends to stay – and you will, if you buy this property! - you are all under the same roof. This second renovated house offers an office, a TV room and a dining room with a huge fireplace and door to the outside. The salon of 35m² is lovely and light with big glass doors to the front and to the terrace and second pool. The kitchen, fully fitted and modern with lots of storage also gives on to this private pool and dining area. Upstairs there are three good sized bedrooms (22m², 16m² & 14m²), all with their own facilities and with doors giving on to an upstairs balcony, overlooking the pool. There are also three other interconnecting rooms, also with three shower rooms, perfect for children, with an external stone staircase leading down to the grounds. There is one large outbuilding which houses the pool equipment, the fuel tank and boiler, the water heater (provided by the solar panels on the roof) and plenty of storage space for the ride-on mower, garden furniture and even the wine! The first floor of this building – a whopping 120m² – has been converted into a games room, a fabulous space for all the family to get together, or for teenagers to use on their own. It could also double as a gym. With its 24 acres of garden (approximately 6 acres of wood) and tennis court, line of fir trees and small orchard, this is a real haven. At just 3.5kms to the nearest village with a bakery, general store, bar, a couple of restaurants, a primary school and a pharmacy, it could just as easily be a full-time residence as a holiday home.

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.

In a quiet area of the bustling town of Fleurance, this old stone house, originally built in 1861 for the local clog makers or Sabotiers, is light and airy both inside and out. An adjoining garage with access front and back and a peaceful garden complete the property. Downstairs The front door opens on to an entrance hall which is partitioned off from the open plan living room and kitchen. Although the house was renovated in 1992, some of the original features have been integrated into the modern style living. This can be seen in the big wooden doors housing the storage cupboard by the original front door. Moving into the spacious living room which spans the width of the house, thus profiting from the sunlight flooding in all day long, we welcome the sight of a modern fireplace. The house has underfloor heating throughout but it is always a delight to enjoy the ambiance of dancing firelight on those cool winter evenings. Hidden from immediate view, we find the recently fitted kitchen. Again it is bright as well as functional, and it looks in to the conservatory and onwards to the garden. The conservatory serves as an additional dining area in the lovely summer days. Beyond the conservatory is a large utility room, and a separate WC. Upstairs Taking the stairs up from the living room, we are immediately drawn to the mezzanine area which pulls us by an invisible thread to the reading area with its bookshelves and window seat, perfect for losing ourselves in the latest book …. Another corner of the mezzanine is currently used as an office area but which could be closed off to easily make another bedroom if required. There are already three double bedrooms overlooking the garden, and a fourth on the roadside which is currently being used as a TV snug. The largest of these has a dressing room, whilst the others all have fitted wardrobes. The bathroom, shower room and WC complete the upstairs. The Garage The garage is large enough for two vehicles, and still leaving room for a workshop and plenty of storage. The Garden Outside the conservatory, a newly laid terrace leads you into the garden. The majestic Ginkgo Bloba tree definitely takes centre stage, but there is also plenty of space to create a vegetable plot or simply to plant some colourful plants….. On the utility room roof, we spot a weathervane, believed to have been installed at the time the house was built, which continues to show which way the wind blows. Adjacent to the utility room is an open veranda, useful for stocking garden tools, wood, … And at the end of the garden we find a well with it’s electric pump, perfect for watering the garden.

They confirm that it works equally well as a comfortable family home, and as an easy to maintain holiday home. Enough outdoor space for a family to enjoy but with no need to spend all your time cutting the grass. Modern comforts: Although the property was renovated in 1992, the current owners have concentrated on modern comforts such as replacing the thermal insulation in the roof, installing solar panels and an air-conditioning system. As the owner says: >.

Just 15 minutes from the charming tourist town of Lectoure and 30 minutes from Auch, it is also conveniently located 1 hour from Toulouse airport and Agen train station, with its TGV.

Upon entering, a warm ambiance welcomes you into an elegant dining room, while a bright living room, adorned with a majestic fireplace, invites exquisite moments of relaxation. The kitchen, both functional and elegant, is a convivial space for preparing delicious meals. A cleverly arranged laundry room and a space to be fitted out complete this haven of peace. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms offer absolute comfort, bathed in natural light and featuring charming, high-quality floors. With its 290 m² of living space, the house also benefits from a convertible attic, with its bull's eye windows, allowing for the creation of additional bedrooms and bathrooms.

A separate building, currently used as a garage equipped with a lift, offers the possibility of remarkable transformation into additional living space, thus allowing unparalleled flexibility to personalize this property to your liking. The exterior To enjoy the gentle summer days, a sparkling pool, deliberately placed in front of the living spaces, becomes the ideal refuge for cooling off and relaxing in peace. A traditional well adds a touch of timeless character to this private oasis.

This property is situated in one of the most attractive areas of the Gers. it has views of rolling hills from the covered terrace and no close neighbours, even though it is only a few minutes from a lively village. Once you pass through the gates, you are in your own little world, totally private and peaceful. There is a charming little pond, attractive flowerbeds and many mature trees. The covered terrace at the front of the house is the ideal place to spend time listening to birdsong or reading a good book. The house is quite spacious and in very good overall condition, so you can move in immediately and begin to enjoy life in the area. On the ground floor there is a spacious kitchen that has been recently modernised; it opens onto a large living room with glass doors to a side patio. On the other side of the kitchen is a charming sitting room with beautiful tiled flooring and a woodburning stove. Further on, on the other side of the front hall, there is a large bedroom. At the back of the house, and accessed through the sitting room, a wide passageway leads to a bathroom, a separate WC, and a small laundry room. A door leads to the stables, which could offer more living space if desired. The traditional staircase leads up to a half landing with access to a large, full-height attic. This is the perfect space to expand the house – it would be relatively easy to create a large bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room here. On the first floor, there is a first bedroom opening off the landing on the right, and on the left is the master bedroom. This is a large room which has a private bathroom that has been created in the attic space by a previous owner. You pass through a low door into a surprisingly large space with a modern shower, handbasin and WC. It is quite quirky and unexpected, but also very practical! The large (18.5 x 12.5 m) swimming pool is covered with a very useful dome which keeps the pool free of debris and also substantially extends the swimming season. It can be pushed back in the hottest summer months. In addition to the stables and attic space, there is a large barn attached to the house on the pool side. This is accessed by big double doors, but there is also access from the back hall of the house. Here we find the pool pump and there is plenty of room to park several cars. Here is where the original owners made their wine, and there is still a small wine cellar with the metal racks ready to receive new vintages. This could also be a great place to create a studio or creative space. Behind the house there is a tiny pigeonnier with a door – too small to do much with, but if renovated it could be a charming little refuge in summer months. The entire property of 3000 m² is fenced and there is an electric gate which accesses a private road which is used only by the owners and the local farmer. There are many mature trees in the grounds, some of which could be pruned back to provide a view towards the hills at the back of the house. A small pond is surrounded by flowering plants but does tend to dry up in the hottest part of the summer. We think this is a great opportunity to buy your very own piece of Gascony at a very reasonable price. While we would be tempted to do some work and would definitely consider expanding into the attic, this house already has all the important elements – charm, privacy, views, and even a pool!

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 centuries this charming timber framed property has graced the heart of an ancient Gascon village, a testament to time. Some fifteen years ago, the entire building was dissected, and rebuilt, so that it could see in the next millennia. Today the property oozes character. Imagine a drawing in a book of fairytale fables: this could easily belong to Hansel and Gretel, or just as easily be a drawing in a book. However, it is a real property with heart and soul – and when we open its cute and characterful blue door, trailing with honeysuckle, the inside is as warm and welcoming as it promises from the outside. The property is attached on one side, to an equally charming home, and to the front of the house, there is an area with a table, pots, and plants, which although forming part of the main square of the village, is used by both neighbours to create an attractive area to sit for coffee or lunch. At a short distance from the house on foot and at the bottom of the village, there is a private garden, with fabulous view over the valleys of the Gers to the south. Here the owner has installed a top of the range sauna and built a platform that overlooks the views. There is a non-adjacent garden, and the property has two bedrooms, kitchen/dining-room, 2 reception rooms, one downstairs shower-room, 2 WCs. The property has two bedrooms, kitchen/dining-room, 2 reception rooms, one downstairs shower-room, 2 WCs.

The cathedral town of Lectoure is well-known for its panoramic views from its proud position up on high. Along the northern and southern ramparts one’s eye is drawn across the sprawling countryside, for miles around. The best properties in Lectoure are those with such a magical outlook. Tucked away just a stone's throw from the bustling town centre, this elegant property boasts both a pool, garden and those much sought-after views. Behind the old wrought-iron gate the front garden is deliciously adorned with fragrant plants and bushes reminiscent of a secret curate’s garden, tucked away from sight. The neatly clipped and tended plants and bushes add to the property’s restful zen appeal. To the rear of the property there a fabulous terrace provides breathtaking views quite unlike any other in town. The front-door opens onto a spacious central hallway with high ceilings, filled with natural light which floods in through its tall windows. One particularly attractive feature throughout the property is the tall ceilings in classical 18th century style throughout. To the right of the entrance hall, a spacious double bedroom boasts the same large windows while on the left of the main front door, another generously sized bedroom overlooks a picturesque view of the garden and ancient medieval walls. The third bedroom is equally as spacious, and also has impressive views. A modern style family bathroom, complete with modern amenities, a separate WC, along with a cleverly designed laundry area, are all presented in pristine condition. A magnificent open-plan reception-room sits at the heart of the house with direct access to the kitchen and terrace. In the main living-area there are three fabulous windows that frame the distant views, adorning the room with light and a sense of space. One has the impression in this room of « floating » above the landscape. A newly fitted cosy wood-burning stove nestles in the corner adding warmth and ambiance to the room, which makes this the perfect spot to unwind on chilly winter evenings. The adjoining kitchen blends seamlessly with the living area, providing ample space in a pleasingly contemporary workspace. The « pièce de resistance » is the panoramic terrace, with its sweeping vista of the valley, with its sense of privacy and serenity - despite the property’s central location in town. This is a lovely spot indeed for a nocturnal dinner party beneath the soft glow of the stars. Both internally and externally the property boasts clean lines, abundant natural light, and timeless elegance.

Located in the heart of the Gers, a few minutes from Lectoure and Agen, this old winery benefited from an exceptional renovation in 2021. With an area of 470sqm, it is located on an intimate plot of one hectare . Past the gate, a long avenue of cypress trees leads to the property. The uniqueness of this building is revealed little by little. The entrance impresses with its volumes and style. The renovation was carefully designed to respect and highlight the character of the property. Several volumes with a strong identity make up the living spaces. A living room with endless ceiling height is naturally extended by the kitchen. A second, more intimate living room also has its place. Numerous custom-made openings provide access to the various terraces, naturally extended by the park and the surrounding nature. A first sleeping area takes place on the ground floor, a guest suite and another bedroom are available. The upper floor is dedicated to rest, 3 suites including the master offer exceptional volumes and an impeccable finish. An office that can be transformed into a sixth bedroom completes the whole.

Boasting a prime location with far-reaching views in the heart of a highly sought-after Gascon village, this picturesque abode offers the perfect blend of rural tranquility and village life. Home to a family of three with a dog - this property is ideal as a main residence or as a holiday bolt-hole, with easy access to may countryside walks around the nearby countryside. We enter the property via a private courtyard whose ancient stone walls form an intimate and private space in which to entertain; the perfect miniature garden in which to display a collection of potted plants or in which to dine on a heady summer’s night. Small enough for easy maintenance, spacious enough for outdoor dining and relaxation in the sun, this area once comprised a first floor wooden terrasse which could potentially be re-instated in metal or wood. (Planning may be required). Certainly what this garden may lack in size, it gains in charm, being very much an additional reception-room in the summertime. From the stone courtyard we enter the house via a side door which opens onto a small hallway. Here there is a downstairs laundry room and a handy storage area. Shedding our coats, we turn to the spacious reception room which overlooks a tiny medieval street. The room is toasty warm, thanks the wood-burning stove installed by the current owners. Of note are the large glass windows which open onto the street from the reception room and allow a stream of sunlight into the room. The kitchen is a delightful area that has the “feel” of a multifunctional reception room, with a central moveable island, a dining-room area and a panoramic view of the valley to the north. The current owners would have fitted a second wood-burning stove into this room had they stayed. On the first floor an impressive master bedroom overlooks the tiny medieval village street. This fabulous room has an open-plan bathroom with a tub and sink. There is also a private ensuite WC for the parents. The family showroom shared by the other two first floor bedrooms sits in the middle of the landing. This room has a lovely view over the internal courtyard - and potentially with a rejig, one could position a bath tub in a prime position to enjoy the view. The two remaining bedrooms overlook the valley with far reaching views. One is currently used as a music room, the other a teenage bedroom : both are of a good size either as two children’s rooms - or perhaps one could be used as a study. However you choose to make use of the first floor bedrooms, the light is good and the views in both directions too. The top floor has a special surprise reserved for guests to the house. A hideaway in the eaves, a cosy nook in which to retreat, this room has the joyous playfulness of a secret den, tucked up high in the rooftop and oblivious to the stirrings of the world below. Guests who enjoy a quirky nest will feel safe and coddled by the intimate walls of this little hideaway. This room will appeal to anyone young of heart and remain entirely inaccessible to anyone who isn’t surefooted. Up on high, the bed is custom built on a platform. There is a small shower room in one corner- while WC is accessible on the first floor.

This pretty stone property is located a short distance from the popular town of Lectoure, with its weekly market and plethora of eclectic independent shops, its schools and many antique dealers for which the town is so well known. This property is set in a peaceful area, with a long private driveway far from the hub of the village but with easy access to Lectoure, Agen and Toulouse with easy access for Paris, Bordeaux and Toulouse. With living accommodation on three levels of the main house, the property comprises : a veranda, main reception room, spacious kitchen, dining-room, bedroom and shower room, laundry room, and separate WC. On the first floor there is a master suite with an ensuite bathroom. On the lower garden level there is a private appartment suite (with 3 rooms) as well as the boiler room and garage. The gardens are a delight, and the current owner who is a keen gardener has created a floral backdrop to the house which is an absolute delight, with many varieties of trees, roses and bushes (a list can be found in the details below). Here at Bliss we loved the covered terrace area, opposite the main house, for summer dining, with a backdrop of beautiful roses. For anyone with dogs, it is interesting to note that the entire garden has been fenced off. There are some pretty vines growing along one section of the fencing, to accompany the cheese board. There is a decorative stone water feature with thirty fish (we didn’t count!) The additional outbuilding/ cottage in the gardens which is partially renovated on two floor, provides further scope for development (subject to any relevant planning which may be necessary).

This magnificent Gascon Château sits in the heart of rolling countryside and has been treasured by the same family for several generations. With its foundations in the Middle Ages, circa 1479, these old stone walls have observed the centuries pass by and observed each generation adapt the building according to the needs and innovations of its time. The most remarkable of these modifications was the extension of the original château before the French Revolution by the Comtesse de Beaumont, a courtesan of the court, who, forced to flee from court and to return home to Gascony, (one wonders at the actions that led to the wrath of the Queen?), later hosted political refugees herself, fleeing the bloodshed of Paris and the reign of terror in 1789. Later throughout the 20th century and war with Germany, the chateau once again offered sanctuary to those in need. In the second world war a Jewish refugee by the name of Irène Lezorviez, was hidden here. As a sign of recognition a tree was planted in 1987 in Jerusalem as a sign of recognition to the Gascon French resistance. The Comtesse de Beaumont was the person to make the greatest contribution to the development of the Château as we know it today. Bringing back home with her the notions of fine living she had experienced at court, the Comtesse was anxious to create a similar splendour in rural Gascony. This might have been a rural and working estate, but the Comtesse made additions to ensure that it was transformed into a place of beauty and the ideal place to host parties, with the addition of the 18th century wing which forms the main building today, to the addition of the stone turrets with their far reaching views, to the development of the stunning parkland with its tree-lined avenues in the shape of a star, leading to the bronze statue of Diane the huntress, and last but not least, the construction of the delicate and ornamental chapel where current owners of this family have married. During her time at the Château many parties were hosted here, and it is a testimony to the longevity of the Gascons themselves, that having escaped the Revolution, the Comtesse lived on until the fine age of one hundred years! Each successive generation has brought change and innovation to the park and buildings, with various additions; for example, the innovative water-pump and windmill, to the complete renewal of the roof as we see them today by the current owners. This property was the first to experience the joys of running water and has traditionally been the residence of a succession of innovative and inspirational residents. With its towers, pigeonniers, moat and wine chai, as well as being a place of beauty, we are reminded that this Château is also a testament to the rich agricultural architecture of Gascony. Brought to market for the first time in centuries by BLISS IMMOBILIER since 1881, this is a rare and extraordinary opportunity to enjoy not only an incredible building and park, but to experience French history first-hand. Some of the original furniture remains, including the commode at the entrance hall with its grand mirror, installed by the Comtesse so that she might check her appearance before leaving through the grand front door. As you glance at the mirror today, and see your own reflection, it is easy to sense the rustle of the skirts of the Comtesse behind you in the grand hallway and imagine her elegant figure sweeping across the magnificent original tiled floor. These rooms are alive with history, in a place which time has somehow managed to forget. Whether your project is to develop a business suitable to the 21st century within these walls, and to bring the rooms alive with conferences or luxury guest suites for guests visiting this wonderful corner of southwest France, or whether you are someone who simply craves the joy and of stepping back in time and living a part of your life where so many others have left their imprint before, we cannot know. What we can promise, is that this is a rare opportunity to live in a place of immense beauty. Climb to the top of the high stone turret and survey the dizzying view of your magnificent 4,6-hectare park, with far reaching views as far as the eye can see on all four sides. Admire the old oak trees which are hundreds of years old, the likes of which could never grow within a single lifetime. Welcome to your own personal opportunity to become chatelain or chatelaine of this fine Gascon château. More photos and information as well as a film on our Bliss real estate website
