In a word, this property is all about the VIEWS. Built in a raised position and dominating the landscape, this imposing country home is positioned to admire the sweep of fields and woodland. The mellow stone walls embrace the sunsets and as is clear from the photographs that illustrate this advert, provide an ever-changing tableau of colour. The skies up here are vast. The owner shares a collection of photographs from over the years. Each one depicts a different and dramatic sunset, the colours never quite the same, all with vibrant flashes of pink, oranges, purple and red. There is a wild timelessness about this view, as it stretches far into the distance without the interruption or another house or building. Sitting on the gravel terrace and looking down at the sweep of the valley, there is a sensation of being on the rim of the world. The beloved country estate of the same family for many years, the property was a retreat to which the owner could invite friends from Paris, principally to party, and in later years to live full-time. This property was the dream of one man, who like the Great Gatsby, developed his home around his own desire for comfort, space, luxury and amusement. The rooms are vast. If you like to spread out, there isn’t a risk of ever feeling cramped here. There are some quirky remnants, the vestiges of another world. This is possibly the only property you will ever find with two 1970s bathtubs in one bathroom, positioned to view a TV screen, and with place for the bottle of Champagne. The property does not take itself too seriously, except in the serious business of space and fun. The walls are full of pictures of parties held there, and interesting people who came to feast and dance. As with all properties that are firmly rooted in another time, and place, it is fixed in time, and with regards to the bathrooms, and carpets, new owners will need to rip away the décor of the 1970s, the personality of the previous owners, and expose the bare bones of the property.The bones are good. The rooms are vast, and the property designed around a central courtyard and a long internal gallery. Some of the rooms have a more traditional feel than others, with fine terracotta floor tiles, and stone walls. Other rooms will most likely want to shed their carpets and cladding. There is a mix of styles; traditional Gascon manor house, Spanish villa, or perhaps in parts something slightly Moresque about the woodwork and the detail of the fret work. A second much older cottage sits at the entrance of the property, far removed from the main house, and provides perfect guest accommodation, or home for a guardian. Let’s begin our tour with a look at the main house The formal entrance to the property opens onto a large gallery hallway which in turn opens onto a central courtyard. The family prefer to use the kitchen entrance daily. The Kitchen The kitchen is the heart of the house, divided into three separate zones, this large and spacious room has a breakfast table, a formal dining area, and has a cosy workspace at the far end with an oven range and ceramic tiles. If you were to ask which part of the house is the most traditional, then without a doubt it is the kitchen. With thick oak beams running across the ceiling, a decorative stone sink, and a choice of traditional fixtures and fittings, this is a Gascon kitchen worthy of any French country home. Currently filled with a lifetime of bits and pieces, there is nothing minimalistic about this room, by any stretch of the imagination, and yet it still manages to feel spacious. The kitchen opens in turn both onto the internal hallway to the formal entrance and to the central reception room. This vast living space, with its fireplace, has views to the gardens through tall French windows along the full length of the room. This is a tremendous space in which to party or sit by the fire in a smaller committee. It is a family living space, incorporating an occasional study desk, and various sitting areas. In summer the windows are thrown open to the terrace, and to the fabulous view towards the vast stretch of horizon and the woodland beyond. Besides the main reception room, there is a second study or library, which in turns opens out to a downstairs bedroom and bathroom. The master suite encompasses a huge amount of surface area, with the infamous bathroom, which is spacious enough to dance in, not to mention its two bathtubs… The master bedroom is equally generous in size. Future occupants to the property might wish to rethink how the rooms are used. There is certainly more than enough space to play around with. The master bathroom could perhaps become a bedroom with an ensuite. It is certainly spacious enough. The property was designed so that the sleeping accommodation is almost entirely reserved for Monsieur and Madame, with guests retiring to the cottage at the bottom of the garden. All rooms are on the ground floor. There are no stairs; each room flowing to the next in circular fashion around a central terrace, like a Riyad. There is a guest cloak room behind a decorative wooden door in the main hallway. The Guest Accommodation At the entrance to the cottage, there is a large guest cottage, with a kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. This cottage was once the original building on the plot and is rustic in style with much smaller rooms, steps and stairs between levels and a quirky layout. The Pool There is a swimming pool and an outbuilding for storage next to the pool, with a covered terrace for summer dining. The pool has not been used recently and will need to be filled again and put back into service. There are lovely views from the pool and it sits at a good distance from the main house.

The ground floor of the house offers an intermediate landing with wc and direct access to the basement of the house which, too, has also been carefully fitted out; it includes a wine cellar, a laundry area with shower, a small laboratory/culinary preparation area and a fully equipped workshop.

Regarding the exteriors, the swimming pool, the sheds, the paddocks, the quarry, the fences, the boxes... everything has been thought out down to the smallest detail and with impeccable quality.

This lovely old stone property has belonged to the same family for generations. With a walled garden with a pool, and stunning views over the Gascon countryside, this spacious Gascon manor house occupies an enviable position high up on the ramparts. Its central village location ensures easy access on foots to the local shops, restaurants, and tea-rooms. With several generations of the same family owning the property, we were touched by the family history recounted by the current owner. She tells how her father used to pass by the house every day as a schoolboy, from the farm where he lived, and would always vow to himself: “one day this house’ will be mine!” Such was the power of his manifestation, that some years later, as a young man, he purchased the house for his wife and family. One can easily imagine how inspiring this house might be to a child, sitting in one of the most unusual and enviable places in the village, and so impressive in size. We hope that we can find a new owner for this property, who will be just as delighted and excited by this acquisition. Let’s look at the property in more detail: The original front door opens from the street, onto an impressive 44m2 central hallway. With a door to the rear end of the hallway, opening on the garden, the hallway gives access to each of the reception-rooms. To the left of the main door, there is a large 45m2 reception-room, filled with light from the French doors that open onto a raised terrace, and with a view over the surrounding countryside and gardens. This raised terrace area is one of the property’s most lovely features. Along the hallway, next to the main reception-room, there are two bedrooms on the ground-floor both with a fireplace. To the far right of the hallway there is a lovely room with wooden panels and decorative lead windows. This room was used as a music room, or a formal dining room, and overlooks the garden. The kitchen is positioned close to the main entrance, close to the grand staircase. It is the heart and hub of the house. The kitchen is typical of a bygone era, with space for a large dining table Infront of the fire, and despite its rather dated appearance, full of charm. There is a door from the kitchen to the street. There is also a separate cloakroom and lavatory in the main entrance. Behind the kitchen there is ample space for storage in a rear cellar, where the boiler is situated. In days gone by this section of the property was fondly nicknamed “The Shop” or “Le Magasin” by the family, because it was so spacious and with so many shelves, anything practical required here could be found in this area of the house. A graceful staircase ascends to the first floor, where we find a mirror image of the grand hallway below. This property is truly a fine family home, with five double bedrooms on the first floor, each with a bathroom. The previous owner built each of his daughters a bathroom. Three of these bedrooms have their own individual character and secret treasures, with each room opening out into a “secret” room behind. The perfect house for children to lose themselves in, with a game of Hide and Seek. On the second floor, there is a large attic. This spreads across the entire top floor, and could potentially provide additional space for conversion, relevant planning permissions permitting. Below the large garden terrace there is a garage and additional storage area.

This elegant Chartreuse style property was once known locally as Le Château. It is easy to see why with its elegant architecture, its high ceilings and lovely ornate features; such as its intricate glass paneled doorways, its lovely fireplaces, original turning staircase and wrought iron balcony which is accessed from the main reception-room and overlooks the park. With three spacious reception-rooms, a double kitchen/dining-room and three ensuite upstairs bedrooms, the property has the undeniable charm throughout. In spite its elegance - this property feels completely “manageable” and has a warmth and cosiness with which we all fell in love, here at BLISS. The property is conveniently located being within easy driving-distance of Condom. It has a large garden, ensuring complete privacy.

An internal hallway on the ground-floor leads to a spacious and beautifully appointed bedroom with storage cupboards. A second downstairs bedroom is currently used as a study with French doors to the gardens. With access from the same hallway, there is a large a bathroom with a corner bath and spacious shower, a separate lavatory, a vast laundry-room and a boiler-room. With separate access from the garden, the current owner has converted an outbuilding into a peaceful artist’s studio. With a large bay-window ensuring a joyous flow of light into the room, this area is the perfect place in which to meditate; where creative souls can set to work, whether that be with an easel, a kiln or a quill. It is possible to create a gîte or set up an independent business. Returning now to the house, let’s take a look upstairs : A modern open-plan staircase leads to the first-floor landing which has lovely views over the lower ground-floor of the property; almost as though one were standing on the upper deck of a modern boat and looking down, sunlight zinging through the property in every direction. A large internal space at the top of the stairs on the first floor is used as an upstairs reception-room. In addition to this relaxing and private upstairs living-area, there are three comfortable bedrooms, one of which has its own dressing-room and private It has a private shower room with wc and another with a large storage cupboard.
