Full Description
TARN – BETWEEN CASTRES AND ALBI
Hidden from view, in the heart of an unspoilt countryside, this remarkable 18th-century residence stands within nearly three hectares of mature grounds, facing due south. It enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining within easy reach of Albi, Castres and Toulouse.
Rich in history, the property has retained the character and authenticity of a fine family residence, with period fireplaces, high ceilings, oak floors, spacious reception rooms and generous windows creating an elegant and timeless atmosphere.
The house offers nearly twenty-five rooms, including three elegant reception rooms, a large kitchen and fourteen bedrooms. Approximately 160 sqm of attic space remain to be converted, providing considerable potential for further development. Restoration work is already well underway, leaving the future owners the opportunity to complete the property according to their own vision.
The mature grounds, with their centuries-old trees, provide a remarkable natural setting, equally suited to a prestigious family home or a high-end hospitality project, such as a guest house, boutique hotel, private events or seminar venue.
Just two kilometres away, a lively village provides shops, restaurants, everyday services and leisure facilities. Castres is approximately 25 minutes away, Albi is also within easy reach, while Toulouse can be accessed conveniently via the motorway. The forthcoming opening of the A69 motorway will further enhance the accessibility of this sought-after area.
A rare property combining scale, history and considerable potential, ideal for those seeking an exceptional historic residence and wishing to complete the restoration of a distinguished family home in an unspoilt rural setting.
