Charming Estate Near Albi with Manor, Guest House and Renovation Projects

Property Description

Located just a short drive from the historic town of Albi, this exceptional estate offers a rare combination of character, privacy, and versatility. Set within over 7 hectares of private land and accessed via a long, tree-lined driveway, the property comprises four separate houses, including a beautifully presented five-bedroom manor house, a fully renovated three-bedroom guest house, and two further properties offering exciting renovation potential.

The main manor house is filled with charm and character, featuring a grand entrance hall that leads to a spacious living room, formal dining room, breakfast room, and kitchen. On the opposite side of the hallway, you'll find a ground floor bedroom suite with a dressing room and private bathroom, along with a separate office. Nearly every room, aside from the kitchen which has its own access to the garden, opens onto a magnificent full-length terrace that overlooks the grounds, offering an ideal space for outdoor entertaining.
Upstairs are four further bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, as well as a generous room currently used as a library, which could easily be converted into an additional bedroom if needed.
The house also benefits from a vast basement that spans the entire footprint of the building, offering ample storage or garage space for multiple vehicles.
A swimming pool is set to the side of the house, enjoying a sunny, sheltered position.

The second house, which has recently been renovated, offers comfortable and contemporary single-level living with three bedrooms, a modern kitchen, a family bathroom, and a light-filled living and dining area. It also boasts double glazing, insulation, and its own private terrace and garden with lovely views across neighbouring vineyards.

The third property, which includes an attached barn, already offers a basic level of accommodation with a living area and several bedrooms but would benefit from finishing work to bring it up to modern standards. The fourth house is a blank canvas, requiring complete renovation but offering excellent potential for expansion or additional guest accommodation (subject to the relevant permissions).

Each of the four houses is positioned to enjoy privacy and independence, with no direct overlooking, making the estate ideally suited to a variety of uses. Whether as a spacious family home with room for guests, a multi-generational living solution, or a hospitality business such as gîtes, bed and breakfast, retreats, or events, this property offers exceptional flexibility (pending the required authorisations). The location is equally appealing, with a village offering all local amenities just five minutes away and the city of Albi only a little further. The nearby autoroute provides quick and easy access to Toulouse and its international airport in under an hour.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire an expansive and character-filled estate in a prime location, with endless possibilities for private or commercial use.
