Summary

Could this Gascon manor house with its fairytale pigeonnier, swimming pool and vast former stables be your family’s dream

Property description

Could this Gascon manor house with its fairytale pigeonnier, swimming pool and vast former stables be your family’s dream? Set back from the road and dating from 1833, the property has been in the same family since the Second World War. Three generations have enjoyed its large airy rooms, played in the lawned garden and nearby copse, and relaxed under the majestic cedar and umbrella pines trees. It is a warm, lived-in home with a welcoming atmosphere imbued with history. Pleasingly symmetrical in design, a central half- paneled hallway runs from front to rear off which original wooden doors topped by ornate carved panels open into the various living areas. An atrium with a stained glass roof floods light onto the original curved staircase leading to 4 spacious first floor spacious bedrooms and an Italian style family bathroom, with mosaic tiles, corner bath and Etruscan tromp d’oeil mural. The pigeonnier was recently converted for chambres d’hote with 4 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms and also makes a charming guest house or gîte. With 500sq meters of outbuildings there is potential for further development (workshops, studios, gallery, hobbies...).
