luxury mas with pool for sale Albi, France

20 minutes to the south of Toulouse, with tree-filled grounds and a remarkable swimming pool, a 19th-century family home carefully renovated into a bucolic event space. At the end of the first driveway that provides access to the departmental road, a majestic willow tree overhangs the small wooden bridge, which marks the property’s entrance. Previously used to provide water for livestock, a water lily-carpeted pond sets the tone, a first and graceful indication of the estate’s overall floral aesthetic. Surrounded by greenery, a winding driveway then leads to the long building, recounting centuries of successive constructions, in which welcoming suites have replaced the feed cellars. Three clearly defined spaces, the reception space, the guest house and the private area come one after another and are extended by elegant patios in front of each of their façades. The farmhouse occupies the eastern part of the property, which extends over 1.7 hectares with blooming flowers and trees. The building, with typically Toulouse-style architecture, alternates brick and stone compositions with foundations plastered in lime whitewash. To the north, it is protected by woods whose oak and acacia trees supply fuel for the house’s fireplace. The swimming pool, awarded with a gold medal for the most beautiful design in France by the Federation of Swimming Pool Professionals, adorns the southwest wing of the house with its harmonious conception. The orchard’s fruit trees take full advantage of their southern orientation to provide ripe seasonal fruit. Light-coloured, made-to-measure reception tents blend harmoniously with the surrounding nature.
