Réf. 4465: Charming 16th century manor house for sale near Agen. The Lot-et-Garonne is criss-crossed by the Canal de Garonne, perfect for cycling or barge trips. The region is renowned for its medieval bastide towns, lively markets and friendly cuisine featuring local produce. Close to major routes, Agen is ideally located for exploring the south of France, while offering the serenity of a rural environment. Agen, in the heart of the Lot-et-Garonne region, is a charming town in south-west France, known for its peaceful surroundings and rich heritage. Nestling between Toulouse and Bordeaux, it offers an exceptional quality of life, combining history, gastronomy and nature. Agen is famous for its delicious prunes, but also for its historic centre, picturesque narrow streets and half-timbered houses. The region's varied landscapes, from rolling green hills to agricultural plains, are ideal for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. A first building constructed in the 16th century comprised only the western part of the building. This three-storey building had a large room serving as a kitchen and a living room on the ground floor, a lounge with a fireplace and a bedroom on the first floor and 6 ‘maid's’ bedrooms on the second floor. The property also included a number of farm buildings and a dovecote, which is still standing today. All these buildings were connected to the main road to the north. This road was abandoned when the Canal Latéral à la Garonne was built in 1840. This access road can be seen on the Napoleonic land register. In the 17th century, the eastern part of the manor house was extended to create a large kitchen with a fireplace, two utility rooms and 4 bedrooms upstairs. In the 19th century, the property belonged to Mr Henri de Blaviel (1846-1918), who commissioned Mr Duby, an architect, to convert the 17th-century part. A three-storey tower and a two-storey adjoining building plus terrace were added to the northern part of the building. The next owner, Louis Georges Pierre de Gaulejac (1915-2003), inherited the estate from his mother and ran a large fruit farm that required the construction of industrial buildings. After his death, the estate was split into two parts, the eastern part comprising the barn and industrial buildings, and the other part, which is the subject of this article, comprising the dwelling and its outbuildings, together with a park covering just over 3.95 acres. Since its acquisition by the current owners in 2005, the property has undergone extensive renovation and conversion work.
