Dating from 1650, the house has been beautifully renovated and regularly maintained, preserving its wonderful period character while offering the comfort and convenience expected of a modern home.
Set at the end of a quiet lane and surrounded by approximately 7,000 m² of mature garden, the property enjoys an exceptionally peaceful and private setting. The grounds offer wonderful, far-reaching views across the Gers countryside, with the Pyrenees visible in the distance. The neighbours are some distance behind well maintained established hedges.
From the moment you enter, the history and character of this remarkable home are immediately apparent. A superb staircase with a patina that only arrives with age is a striking feature, while exposed beams, generous proportions and high-quality materials create an elegant yet warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The spacious main living area, with its beautiful travertine flooring and exposed beams, forms the heart of the home. Two impressive fireplaces, each fitted with a wood-burning stove and the heat pump, provide warmth and a cosy ambience throughout the year.
The well-appointed family kitchen/diner opens directly onto a delightful 40 m² paved terrace, perfect for al fresco dining, entertaining friends and family, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside.
The property offers three to four bedrooms, with one currently arranged as a comfortable home office, providing excellent flexibility for family living, guests or remote working. The master bedroom, landing and office all have direct access to the large balcony, beautifully framed by an ancient mature wisteria. This charming elevated space provides the perfect spot to enjoy the views and the peaceful surroundings.

The property also benefits from solar panels mounted on a sun-tracking system, designed to follow the movement of the sun across the sky, adding an attractive, sustainable and energy-efficient feature to this historic home.
