An enchanting small chateau set on a wooded ridge enjoying truly spectacular views to the Pyrenees across the patchwork of a fertile valley. On a site with Gallo-Roman origins, an 18C building was destroyed at the time of the Revolution and later rebuilt in 1827. The accommodation has elegant proportions with light and lofty rooms on ground & first floor and all principal rooms have been professionally restored and decorated with renewed wiring, plumbing, drainage system and central heating. Further living space could be developed on the second floor and the east wing. The grounds extend on both sides with many fine specimen trees including cedars of Lebanon and Holm Oaks. With terraces ready made for entertaining and an attractive pool area, the property is a superlative private residence but also has the potential for a commercial activity or luxury lettings. Marciac with its international jazz festival has good facilities year round and there is easy access to winter sports in the Pyrenees. 3kms to Marciac, 40kms SW of Auch. Toulouse airport 1hr45min.
