This property in a nutshell
Situated between the market towns of Saint Clar and Beaumont-de-Lomagne, this idyllic 18th-century stone house sits at the end of a long private driveway, bordered by woodland that forms part of the estate.
What awaits is a small hamlet of characterful stone buildings, terraces and peaceful corners – a place shaped over centuries to enjoy sunshine, shade, silence and sweeping views.
Built in 1790, the house unfolds across two garden-level floors, each with direct access to the outdoors. The layout is wonderfully flexible and has welcomed family and friends for over 25 years, whether staying in the house or camping amongst the ancient oak trees.

Let’s take a look inside
Arriving from the parking area, a stone pathway leads to the upper entrance and a welcoming covered terrace – an east-facing spot perfect for a quiet breakfast as the day begins. This entrance opens into a bright room currently used as an office and artist’s studio.
From here, you reach a west-facing bedroom with open views across the countryside, and a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove for winter evenings. Beyond the sitting room lies a second comfortable bedroom.
Stairs from the sitting room lead down to the lower level, where the fitted kitchen opens directly onto a wide south-facing terrace – an irresistible extension of the living space throughout spring and summer. This level also includes a utility/storage room, a bathroom, and a third bedroom.
Step outside into the gardens and grounds
The land around the house – over 6,000 m² – is a blend of meadow, woodland and time-softened stone. A collection of terraces offers sun or shade at any hour, each presenting a different outlook.
A useful storeroom sits opposite the house, and part of the old ruins has been transformed into a charming summer kitchen. There is scope to create more outdoor spaces should you wish.
The elevated position provides uninterrupted views on three sides, while mature woodland shelters the fourth – a perfect balance of openness and privacy.
This is a place made for long summer evenings, golden sunsets and a deep sense of tranquillity.
