A really pretty stone farmhouse set in over an acre of mature and well planted gardens, rural location near the bastide village of Beauville, Lot et Garonne.

This property is nicely renovated throughout and offers approx 80m2 accommodation in move-into condition. Drive entrance to ample parking. As you walk towards the house you will be captivated by its 'roses-round-the-door' appearance, set off by the white Quercy stone.

Entrance hall with WC leading to spacious living room (20m2) with beamed ceiling, tiled floor and open fireplace with woodburning stove. French windows out to the sunny rear terrace overlooking the pretty gardens. Country kitchen/dining (20m2) with tiled floor and beamed ceiling, and old stone sink, with French window out to the dining terrace.

Upstairs are 2 attic bedrooms of good size and a shower room and WC. Attached to the house is a stone barn of some 90m2 that could eventually be converted to accommodation (subject to planning). The property is available fully furnished.

The 4920m2 gardens are mostly to the rear and sides, with lawns, mature flower beds, mature trees and a nice outlook to woodland at the rear. There is a 5m out of ground (OOG) swimming pool with a nice outlook. Plenty of space for a proper in-ground swimming pool.

All in all a very attractive property in good condition, well priced and located close to interesting villages like Beauville, Montaigu de Quercy, Agen. Toulouse international airport and Bergerac airport each about 70mins.

The department of Lot et Garonne in Aquitaine has many small yet lively villages and this department in the south of France is a real find for both nature and culture lovers.

One of Lot et Garonne's assets are the views afforded by the properties over the Garonne or the Lot lush countryside with woodland and lots of leisure activities. The residents have invested well with most of them living in detached houses that are their principal residences. There are however lots of holiday or second homes to choose from.

Compared to the more expensive Perigord or Gers, the Lot et Garonne still holds some bargain French property buys. Perhaps a village home or a traditional stone house in a green environment is what you are looking for, if so, this area is the perfect place to invest in a second home.

Stripping out the usual fluctuations, the housing market in the region has been steadier than most. Long term investments may offer a good return in the future as the Lot-et-Garonne is increasingly appealing amongst foreign purchasers, just like the whole of the region of Aquitaine.
