Ref:4025 MANSION IN THE WHITE QUERCY In a preserved countryside, without any nuisance, this noble manor house is ideally located a few miles from the villages of Lauzerte, an atypical bastide of Quercy, and also Moissac, famous for its abbey and its grapes. These two charming villages offer all the necessary amenities for daily life. The construction dates back to 1810. In 1903, the property was given to the hospitals of Moissac to house children. It was also used as a hideout for resistance fighters during the Second World War. The property was returned to private ownership in the 1950s. The rectangular main building has three levels. The whole is topped by a substantial roof, allowing the third floor, which is partly mansard-roofed, to offer beautiful volumes while maintaining a comfortable height. Unusually shaped oculi provide soft light to the rooms on this floor. The south-east-facing main façade is neo-Palladian in style, bringing rigour and allure to the whole, without forgetting the Venetian touch that we also find inside through the decoration, like a signature desired by the owners of the property! With a living area of approximately 730 sqm, the distribution is as follows: On the ground floor: a vast hall runs through the entire building and gives access to the wide staircase leading to the upper floors. The floors are in terracotta with, in certain rooms, a very beautiful oak floor pattern. The ceiling heights exceed 3 metres and contribute to the good proportions of the whole. The whole house has oak door and window frames with double glazing, and the old cast-iron espagnolettes have been preserved. On one side of the hall, there is a kitchen, a living room with fireplace and a suite. On the other side of the hall is a large dining room and another suite. The 10 vast suites in the house have all been fitted out to offer a bedroom of more than 25 sqm, an independent living room of about ten sqm and bathrooms of a substantial surface. We have beautiful independent spaces, like a small house within a house. The living area on this level is approximately 250 sqm. On the first floor: Four suites and a bedroom with its own shower room. This represents a living area of approximately 250 sqm. The hall, in the same configuration as on the ground floor, is in a central position and crosses, and thanks to the presence of large load-bearing walls, offers perfect acoustics to the occupants of this floor, dedicated to rest. At the end of the hall, on the side of the main facade, a loggia, a fully-fledged exterior room, very characteristic of Palladian style buildings, offers a view of the park. On the second floor: When you reach the top of the staircase, you will discover a terracotta brick arch with a small, intimate lounge created under the vault and in the recess that follows it. If you look up, you will discover a magnificent pegged roof structure of large section and at the end of the large hall, which also serves as a games room, you will see a second loggia offering, just like the first, a view and a space for relaxation. Three suites and two bedrooms have been fitted out, always with maximum comfort and careful decoration. As the rooms are attic, the atmosphere is somewhat different; once again, you can admire the structural parts and the little nooks and crannies created by these technical constraints; this brings a tremendous charm! With a surface area of approximately 2.47 acres, the land is fully enclosed with an automatic gate at the entrance. The house is positioned on the highest part of the plot and relatively to the rear of the plot, which helps to maintain views and space from the terrace. The garden is a mixture of English and French gardens, with gravelled paths for walking and admiring some beautiful old trees such as cedars of Lebanon and oaks. A large swimming pool with pool house, toilet and shower has been installed. Plastered walls close off this relaxing space. Access is through a small wrought iron gate next to the French garden with boxwood paths spared by the moth thanks to the care of the owners. In the bathing area, we also find an old ice-house which bears witness to the past of the place.

This is enhanced by the terrace, with its electric awning and views over the garden. The ideal place to have breakfast in the summer, or sip a cool drink after the heat of the day! There is a pretty brick fireplace here – it is not currently in use but it is fully serviceable. Behind the living room there is a fully equipped kitchen with views over the garden. The first bedroom on this floor has a private shower and wash basin, as well as attractive views over the garden and fields. The second bedroom is also a double.

There are two wells, one of which provides all the water for the property, and many mature trees. There are extensive lawns to the front and back of the property, and as it is entirely fenced, it is perfect for children to play in. The town hall has confirmed that it would be possible to put a swimming pool in (although planning permission would still be necessary).

Near Lectoure and Agen, medieval château from the XIII century and alterations from the early renaissance of the XVI century. This 950 m² château listed monuments historiques which has conserved many of its original features presents a unique opportunity to restore. The former moat, sentry tower with archer slits, the entrance bridge formerly a drawbridge remind its original defensive purpose while the hexagonal dungeon tower, the renaissance galery, the spiral stone staircase, the cloister and the chapel show the alteration from the renaissance period. The chateau boasts 25 rooms including a guards room, empire style reception rooms, a gallery, 9 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, vaulted stone cellars, a chapel. In the park crossed by a river, there are century old trees, a mill house, outbuildings, a XVI century dovecote. On the land of the property, there are 4 farmhouses to repair, 156 hectares of cultivated land and partly under irrigation and 48 hectares of woodland.

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 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

A house with a garden, patios, an outbuilding, a shop space and an apartment, nestled in the historical town of Lectoure in France’s Gers department. The edifice’s layout is typical of others in this town where buildings interlock with one another and stand around inner courtyards and gardens. The property extends from a main street on its north side, where you find the shop space and apartment, both currently rented out, to a secondary parallel street on its south side, where you enter a garage. It is made up of three distinct buildings that stand between two parallel streets. These sections are separated by outdoor spaces: a patio, a garden and terraces. The first building faces the main street. It has three floors with an unconverted loft space. Its entrance hallway leads to the grand town house and to the ground-floor shop space, which offers a floor area of around 60m² and has a shopfront window. The hallway also leads up to the apartment, which has three main rooms and a floor area of around 140m². This apartment takes up the edifice’s first and second floors. The second building has a single-storey 18th-century main section made of dressed stone that faces a court, which is partly covered. A four-floor medieval tower with a loft adjoins this section. This edifice has a wooden terrace on its south side and a walled garden that extends eastwards and southwards. On the narrow street on the south side, there is a separate stone building that adjoins two other properties. It houses a vast ground-floor garage and an upstairs space with sloping attic ceilings that could be converted. The latter space can be reached from the garden via the wooden terrace.

A discreet medieval house, its outbuilding and walled garden in the centre of a historic town in the Gers region. The property is accessed from an alleyway running parallel to the main street of the village, a stone's throw from the cathedral and all shops and schools. Built protected from prying eyes, it is shielded by the front building, whose sober facade gives no hint of the distinctive character, which unfolds in the various rooms spread over its four floors. Facing the southern ramparts, it comprises a medieval tower acquired by the current inhabitants in a state of dilapidation in the 2000s, a garden on two levels and an outbuilding, part of which has been rebuilt in wood. The main building stands in a prominent position, accessed via a stone staircase, set back from a garden and terrace embellishing the southern facade. To the north, a narrow wing projects at right angles, overlooking a patio. This patio includes a well and is divided in two by a high wall. It is located in the centre of the various buildings in the central part of the old town and provides access to a cellar and a lavatory. Despite the proximity of buildings typical for medieval town centres, the dwelling enjoys absolute peace and quiet, with no visual disturbance from neighbours and a superb vista over the countryside stretching as far as the Pyrenees.

A chateau dating back to 1839 with large outhouses and 7 5 hectares of grounds, a few minutes from the town of Lectoure in France’s Gers department. A track leading to the property leaves a small country road on the hillside. A discreet spring covered with stones marks the entrance to the grounds. The chateau’s facade appears at the end of a drive shaded by tall, old trees. The edifice enjoys absolute privacy and calm. It looks out over a valley, in isolation from the rest of the world. You can admire several stunning vistas from the property. These views stretch to the town of Lectoure, perched on its rocky outcrop. The chateau is built on a large gravel terrace with a round ornamental stone pond. The building is rectangular and has an adjoining tower in the middle of its west elevation. It has four flours that can be seen from its east side, lower down. The top floor is a loft space. The edifice offers a liveable floor area of around 800m², spread between the ground floor and the first floor, which can be seen from the south driveway. The chateau was built in 1805. It is made of dressed stone, rendered with a beige lime coating. Its facade reflects the architectural traits of its era: 14 rectangular openings are arranged symmetrically around a central bay that stands out for its dressed stone and its double door that forms the main entrance. The quoins, cornices and door and window surrounds are made of exposed dressed stone. The building is crowned with a zinc and slate mansard roof with hipped ends, punctuated with three bull’s-eye windows on its south side, three on its north side, one on its east side and another one on its west side. The grounds are dotted with age-old trees and vast clearings. This wonderful outdoor space includes an isolated swimming pool, a dovecote, an old washing place and an Italian-style garden. The style of this Italian garden goes well with the chateau’s north elevation and brings out its elegance. At a lower level, there are two large rectangular outbuildings made of rubble stone. They face each other and can be reached via a separate drive on one side.

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.
