A Belle Epoque villa, with grounds, a swimming pool, outbuildings and a view of the village perched on the hill, at the foot of a royal fortified town in the Lot-et-Garonne area. From the country road and just a few minutes from all essential amenities, a private, 300-metre-long drive forms a lengthy spiral around the property from the north, lined by woods and tall trees, up to the property’s gate, from where the eastern façade of the elegant, late-19th century residence looms into view between the trees and shrubs in the garden. After the entrance gate, the gravelled drive widens before the stoop, allowing visitors to disembark from their vehicles, before continuing to the garages several metres further on. The approximately 350-m² villa stands out thanks to its balanced proportions and immaculate architecture, that of a bourgeois residence, in which the façades are punctuated by regular rows of windows and discrete decorative elements, revealing a carefully thought-out construction. It is made up of a vast kitchen, a lounge, a dining room, six bedrooms and four shower rooms, as well as several service rooms. It pays witness to Belle Epoque period architecture, with its brick and stone, light-coloured rendered walls, inspired by spa town edifices. The large and perfectly aligned windows are fitted with wooden, louvred shutters painted in a warm brown hue that combines well with the decorative details in brick. The gable end is dotted with decorative oculi while the gabled roof is topped by finely crafted ridge cap, giving the building a silhouette that stands out in the Lot-et-Garonne landscape, in the midst of 2.5-hectare grounds boasting tall cedars, oak and ash trees as well as flowering shrubs, in an orderly and harmonious whole. To the south of the house, the stone and wooden outbuildings are made up of a garage, a barn and stables with a riding area. To the west, there is a large patio at the end of which stands a period ornamental balustrade, followed by the swimming pool and view up to the royal fortified village.

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.
