An imposing 19thC maison de maitre, built in classical symmetrical style, with an adjacent secondary residence ideal for letting. Originally an Armagnac estate, the property is quite breathtaking. It is just 6 kms from shops and services. The heated swimming pool is ideal for an early morning dip!

This is a very significant property, eye-catching and gracefully designed. It sits in park-like grounds of about 12095m2 (about 3 acres), with mature trees, shrubs, flowers and a vegetable garden. The heated swimming pool measures 11m x 6m, has Roman steps at one end, is filled with salt water and fitted with an electrically operated cover It is surrounded by a large terrace with plenty of room for sunbeds and parasols.

Light streams into all the rooms which are spacious and filled with character features. Of special mention is the huge kitchen/dining room in the main house, originally a pigeonnier and which probably dates back to the 13th C. The guesthouse is completely self-contained, (but can be accessed from the main building) and has its own private outside space. Given the popularity of this unspoiled part of SW France it would be ideal for holiday letting.

The nearest towns are at Condom and Nerac. They both have excellent weekly markets as well as shops and services. Condom is an elegant place, with substantial 18th C private mansions built when the area became wealthy from the production and export of Armagnac. The wine from this region is of poor quality, hence its transformation into brandy. It stands on the River Baïse, which at the time was considered almost a port. You will find medieval cobbled streets, excellent restaurants and lots of glorious sunshine. The nearest international airport is at Toulouse (120kms).
