Property details

This stunning authentic Master's House (Maison de Maître) is situated in an elevated countryside location in the area of the market town of Vic-Fezensac in the Gers which enjoys full amenities. The property is accessed via a grand private drive lined with stunning mature trees through a wrought-iron gate. The grounds of 1.9 hectares (4.7 acres) comprise the gardens with a pretty walled area which lends a lovely feeling of intimacy to the house, a meadow and a wooded area carpeted with flowers.Of a surface area of about 293m², there are four bedrooms (or even five or more), library, kitchen, dining room, study, living room and two bathrooms. The volumes of all of the rooms are fantastic with very good ceiling height. This is a true character home which exudes the period features that one would expect to find in a Master's House dating from 1800 such as exposed stone, red clay and encaustic tiles, original stairs, woodwork, mouldings and fireplaces. The house is filled with light from the large windows and numerous rooms are dual aspect. It would be straightforward to create a separate apartment or gite because the house already enjoys a separate wing. Work to modernise the house is required, including to the kitchen and bathrooms. The main facade faces east and proudly overlooks the valley. The views of the surrounding countryside are beautiful.
There are several adjoining and non-adjoining outbuildings. The old barn, today used as a garage, is ideal for a car or antiques collector, amongst other things. The old stables with the Pigeon Loft could be converted to create a second house (subject to obtaining the required planning permission).
