Property Description

Ariege - Mazères – 35 Minutes From TOULOUSE

Elegant 18th-Century Townhouse with Guest House, Landscaped Garden and Swimming Pool

In the heart of the medieval bastide town of Mazères, just 35 minutes from Toulouse via motorway, this remarkable mid-18th-century property embodies the timeless elegance of the great residences of the Languedoc region.

Meticulously renovated throughout, this distinguished townhouse perfectly combines historic character with contemporary comfort in an exceptional setting at the gateway to the Pyrenees.

Behind its majestic Toulouse brick façade, adorned with carved stone mascarons and restored under the supervision of the French Historic Buildings Authority, the property is arranged around a beautiful courtyard and offers approximately 620 sq.m of living space.

From the moment you enter, a spectacular 60 sq.m reception hall sets the tone. Generous proportions, high ceilings, period fireplaces, decorative overmantels, and large windows flooding the interiors with natural light create an atmosphere of remarkable refinement.

The ground floor features several reception rooms, a dining room, a study, a welcoming kitchen with pantry and utility room, as well as a workshop.

A magnificent staircase with an elegant wrought-iron balustrade leads to the principal floor, where five spacious bedrooms, each with double doors, benefit from their own bathroom, private Wc and dressing room. An additional room could easily be converted into a sixth bedroom.

The second floor offers nearly 300 sq.m of convertible attic space, presenting exceptional development potential.

A separate 113 sq.m guest house completes the estate. Renovated to the same exacting standards, it includes a kitchen opening onto a terrace, a dining room, a living room extended by a conservatory, two bedrooms, and generous outdoor areas ideal for hosting family and friends.

Two cellars, a garage and several outbuildings further enhance the property.

Sheltered from view, the fully walled 630 sq.m landscaped garden forms a true oasis of greenery in the heart of the town. An elegant heated swimming pool measuring 6 x 3 metres, complemented by a wooden deck, enhances the peaceful atmosphere of this unique property. The terraces, perfectly integrated into the garden, offer a rare lifestyle combining privacy, tranquillity and outdoor living.

Mazères is renowned for its authenticity and exceptional quality of life. This former centre of the historic woad trade, crossed by the River Hers and situated at the crossroads of the Ariège, Aude and Haute-Garonne departments, provides all everyday amenities including shops, schools through to high school level, healthcare facilities and cultural attractions.

The town enjoys a vibrant year-round atmosphere thanks to its famous market held beneath the impressive 19th-century market hall, its cafés, agricultural fairs, traditional festivals and cultural events. Just minutes away, the Domaine des Oiseaux nature reserve offers beautiful walks among lakes, storks and unspoilt natural surroundings.

This exceptional property would be equally suited as a prestigious family residence or for a luxury guest house and holiday rental project.

A rare opportunity to acquire a property combining heritage, elegance and the French art of living, in a peaceful setting within easy reach of Toulouse.
