Charming Gascon Farmhouse

Property Description

At the top of a hill in the Gers, this stone house with outbuildings, formerly an Armagnac farm built in the Gascon style, has been tastefully restored to a contemporary standard. Utterly private and protected from view by the surrounding hills, its only neighbours are the organic fields. Located 18 minutes from Lectoure and 12 minutes Condom, it benefits from easy access to everyday amenities. The property consists of the main house, a barn, a stable, a pigeonnier, a pond and a large covered pool overlooking the western hills and sunset. The house offers, on the ground floor two large reception rooms, one with large doors to the garden, the other more cosy, with a wood burner and huge wooden surround. The kitchen is simple and light. The downstairs bedroom is beautiful, with its white walls, ceiling and fireplace and view onto the garden and fields beyond. There is also a cloakroom on this floor as well as a bathroom and a laundry area. There is access to both the stables and the chai with its huge wine barrels and all the workings still in place, which is really impressive. Upstairs are two good sized bedrooms and one en-suite shower room. The walls are in the property are limestone and the windows are double-glazed. The electricity system has recently been updated, and the roof has been well maintained. The garden of 3700m is completely enclosed by a fence and an electric iron entry gate which allows the view onto the surrounding countryside. It is planted with palm, maple and oak trees surrounding a large south-facing stone terrace that opens on to a view of the Pyrénées. The south facade of the building stands out on the heights, following the crest line of the hillside. Agen station, 45 minutes away, allows you to reach Paris by TGV in 3 hours 30 minutes. Toulouse-Blagnac international airport can be reached by road in 1 hour 20 minutes. This house is a must-see! For more information or a visit, please contact our Lectoure agency on
