Contemporary House with Classical Charm, Set in its own Enclosed Garden with Overlooking Views of the Countryside

Property Description

ALOS - This property, designed and built from 2006 onwards, is laid out around an enclosed courtyard, with several entrances and open to its surroundings.

Set on a plot of 2,447 m², it offers approximately 200 m² of living space.

The layout is designed to allow for a fluid flow between the different spaces, both indoors and outdoors, enabling the home and its surroundings to be enjoyed naturally throughout the day.

The ground floor centres around a double-depth living room of approximately 60 m², featuring a built-in fireplace with a heat recovery system.
It opens directly onto a covered terrace of approximately 50 m², extending into a south-west facing garden with unobstructed views of the surrounding area.
The stunning, light-filled separate kitchen of approximately 25 m², also facing outwards, continues this flow, with an adjoining utility room.

Upstairs, six bedrooms make up the sleeping area. Two south-west facing bedrooms each have their own shower room, WC and reversible air conditioning.
The four other bedrooms share a bathroom, an additional shower room and a separate WC accessible from the landing. A third air conditioning unit is installed on this level.

The construction prioritises sustainable materials and techniques: plastered interior walls, aluminium and PVC double-glazed joinery, and glass wool insulation in the loft, contributing to good thermal inertia and everyday comfort.

The outdoor areas form a natural extension of the living spaces: a 4 x 8 m in-ground swimming pool built around two years ago (insulated shell, heat pump), a separate summer kitchen, and various access points and areas allowing the garden to be enjoyed at different times and for different purposes.

A separate double garage of approximately 65 m² with a workshop and motorised doors completes the property.

Facilities include an 18-panel photovoltaic system (approximately 6 kW for self-consumption), a thermodynamic water heater, a rainwater harvesting system (two 5,000-litre tanks supplying the toilet and washing machine, amongst other things), an electric gate, fibre-optic broadband and compliant septic tank.

Two adjoining spaces, with separate entrances (approximately 65 m² and 80 m²), remain to be converted. They offer various possibilities for use, either as an extension of the main house or as a separate unit.

Access: Cahuzac-sur-Vère 8 minutes away, Cordes-sur-Ciel 15 minutes away, Gaillac 20 minutes away, Albi 30 minutes away, Toulouse approximately 1 hour away.
