private mansions with terrace for sale Lectoure, France

Perched on its white limestone promontory, this ancient city — a Gallo-Roman settlement, a medieval episcopal see, and a centre of nobility under the Ancien Régime — retains an intact historic centre of exceptional cultural richness. It is at the heart of this well-preserved urban fabric that this extraordinary property is nestled. Some 800 square metres spread across four buildings: a spacious 220 m² north wing, a 185 m² main courtyard opening up like an indoor theatre, a 530 m² main house with 13 rooms arranged with the elegance characteristic of classical architecture. But the absolute highlight remains the grand double-flight staircase with diverging runs — an architectural feature unique in the region, worthy of the grandest châteaux. The property is in need of renovation. The essential services — plumbing and electricity — have already undergone major works, providing a solid technical foundation for future owners. A renovated 154 m² flat with high rental yield ensures immediate income upon purchase. Set back from the street, a 200 m² garden and terrace — a rare privilege in the historic centre — offer all the space needed to envisage a swimming pool and pool house. This property is for visionaries. Whether as a hotel project, a characterful guest house or an exceptional family home: the scale, location and architectural identity of the property offer a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Mansion houses of this scale, in the very heart of a historic city of this calibre, are irreplaceable. To own this residence is to own a piece of Gascony’s history. It is to take your place in the long line of those who, from the Romans to the present day, have understood that this white limestone ridge is no ordinary place.

In the heart of the historic center of one of the oldest cities in Gascony, this 18th-century mansion combines authentic charm with refined décor. Nestled in a quiet location, the unique character of this residence is revealed as soon as you enter, with its patio garden and canopy. It is spread over three levels. On the ground floor, the entrance gallery leads to a sumptuous living room, an office, a dining room with a monumental fireplace, and a separate kitchen, ending in a large terrace overlooking the garden, an intimate green setting offering the possibility of a swimming pool to fully enjoy the beautiful Gascon days. The majestic staircase leads to the first floor, which comprises two en-suite bedrooms with dressing rooms. On the lower ground floor, in the former guard room, there are two en-suite bedrooms and a cozy lounge. A wine cellar is available for guests for prestigious dinners or tastings. An outbuilding of approximately 1,650 square feet on two levels, in need of renovation, and a garage complete this property. A privileged location offering a unique lifestyle between gastronomic heritage and renowned thermal baths. AS3-5034 - Midi-Pyrénées Sotheby's Realty - 05.63.58.36.92
