Charming Stone Built Maison De Maitre with Spectacular Panoramic Views

Property Description

You’ll love this charming, stone built Maison de Maitre with spectacular panoramic views of the beautiful Tarn countryside. This 4bedroom, 3 bathroom home with pigeonniere, large open barn, and two further barns one which has been used as a concert hall will give you around 300m2 of generous space to move about (without losing that quaint, cosy atmosphere when it’s time to cuddle up by the fireplace with a good book). Wake up each morning to awe-inspiring sunrises in the East and drift off to sleep each night with the tranquil sounds of nature. Situated in a friendly community within an hour of Toulouse and its international airport and just 10 minutes from the very popular and practical town of Gaillac.
The main house was built in 1842 but the original domain dates back even further to around 1798. It is very rare to come across a property that still maintains many of its original features such as the fireplace, floors and beams. This has allowed it to keep its charm and generous proportions throughout. On entering the property, immediately to the left we find the large open plan kitchen dining area (38m2) with the magnificent fireplace. From here we have access to the salon (22m2), first bedroom (20m2), utility room (11m2), bathroom with WC and finally office / small salon (15m2). Within the main house there is also a one bedroom gite (50m2) with its own separate entrance and terrace. This apartment can be combined within the main house on the ground floor by simply opening through a bookshelf.
The first floor offers the possibility to create a number of bedrooms but will need to be adapted to provide ensuite facilities as there is currently a family bathroom and a shower in the gite part. There is plenty of scope as the main bedroom, currently music room, is around (42m2) beautiful south facing room with plenty of character and charm. Currently on this level there are 3 functional bedrooms ranging from (15m2 – 21m2).
The rest of the domain consist of a courtyard where one has access to the 2 storey pigeonniere, and independent barn which is part wood store (20m2) and the second part has had a new roof and concrete floor and this would make a great workshop or even converted into further living space of around (80m2). There is also a large open barn large enough for several cars and also access to the second barn which has been used as a concert hall. The lucky new owner plays an instrument this would be ideal, or if you have a collection of classic cars this would be a great place to store them as there is over (100m2) of floor space.
The property sits on the edge of a small hamlet and the grounds to the property is split in two. There is a large section on the other side of the small lane and enough grounds around the house if one wanted to install a pool for example. The one thing that you will appreciate is that this location is calm, not isolated and very private.
There is no hiding the fact that money will need to be spent to bring some modern comforts to the home. However once you have visited the property you too will want to keep the original features so as not to lose its wonderful charm and character.
