Building Plot 1,527 m² with Full Planning Permission —, Gers (South West France)

Description

Résumé
In the heart of Gascony (Armagnac country), rolling hills, sunflowers and farmers' markets — this 1,527 m² building plot comes with full planning permission already granted for a family home with swimming pool.

The hard part is done. The permit is secured, professional architect's plans are drawn up (by a Toulouse-based practice), the former agricultural building on the site has been largely cleared, and the plot is ready for groundworks and foundations.

What's included in the sale
- Full planning permission (permis de construire, purged of all appeal periods) for a new-build family home with pool
- Complete architect's plans: site plan, four elevations, interior layout, and photorealistic 3D renders showing the finished property in its setting
- Non-collective sanitation study completed and approved (septic tank 4,000 L + sand filter — standard for rural France)
- Local material to reuse : solid oak beams, stones, reclaimed from the former building on site, available for reuse in the build — adding real character
- Site substantially cleared and ready for groundworks

The approved project : the plans provide for:
- A ground-floor living space of approx. 110 m², including a large open-plan living area (52 m²), two bedrooms, bathroom, shower room, utility/boot room, and entrance hall
- A mezzanine level with a play area and two additional rooms — ideal as extra bedrooms, a home office, or a studio
- An 8 × 4 m swimming pool, already included in the planning permission
- A covered timber porch along the front elevation
- Three off-road parking spaces
- Traditional materials throughout: local clay roof tiles (tuiles canal), stone-coloured render, and timber cladding — a design that sits beautifully in the Gascon landscape

The plans and 3D renders are available to serious enquiries. The new owner is free to build as approved or to submit amended plans if they prefer a different layout.

Emplacement

Détails supplémentaires
Why we're selling?
We're relocating abroad. This was our dream project and we would have seen it through — but life had other plans. The buyer's gain: a building plot with planning permission, architect's drawings, drainage approval, and site clearance already completed. Months of paperwork and thousands in professional fees — already taken care of.

Worth knowing
Under France's new Zero Net Artificialisation law (ZAN), local councils must drastically reduce the amount of new building land they release. Buildable plots of this size in rural communes are becoming increasingly scarce — and permits harder to obtain. This type of opportunity is genuinely unlikely to come around again in this area.
