• Bedrooms: 9

• Condition - Restored / Habitable

This beautiful Chateau is situated in the quiet countryside on the outskirts of a small village not far from Plaisance du Gers and Marciac with its famous Jazz Festival. The Chateau itself is very handsome with clean symmetrical lines and comes with an equally handsome pigeonnier, plus an L-shaped guardian's cottage with attached barn and a separate stable block. We understand the property was bought in the early 80s more or less as a ruin and was completely renovated to the highest of standards. Where possible original features were saved and restored or when necessary substituted with suitable period replacements. There is good quality flooring throughout either in wood or tomette tile, a magnificent stone staircase and there are little patches of trompe l'oeil painting. Many of the rooms have silk lined walls, many have panelling and most have period fireplaces. Sadly however the property is no longer inhabited and needs a new owner to come along and restore it to its former glory.
