This property in a nutshell
This beautiful old stone house, originally built by the current owner’s grandparents in 1900, sits in just over 2 hectares of land. The family has farmed the surrounding countryside for generations and is now ready to pass the property on to new owners.
Although set in peaceful countryside, the house is only 7km from local shops and amenities, with easy access to the autoroute, Agen, and both Toulouse and Bordeaux airports.
It offers generous, traditional rooms with high ceilings and a large fireplace, alongside modern comforts such as central heating and double glazing. There is a real sense of space and warmth here — a home designed for different generations to come together and enjoy.
Part of the main building has been separated to create a one-bedroom ground-floor apartment, allowing elderly parents to enjoy privacy and independence while remaining close to family.
The layout is typical of this style of property, with an imposing entrance hall leading to the kitchen, double living room, shower room and apartment on the ground floor. Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the garden has been lovingly maintained and is dominated by a magnificent cedar tree planted when the house was built 126 years ago. It provides wonderful shade for children playing, family meals, or a sneaky siesta away from the summer heat. Behind the house, chickens roam freely, while the 800m² of outbuildings offer huge potential — whether for animals, car collectors, musicians, or something entirely different.

The approach
The property is approached through fields of sunflowers and woodland. Hidden behind the vast cedar tree, the house reveals itself gradually, offering teasing glimpses as you draw closer.
Beyond the outbuildings on the left, the first view of the house includes the light and airy conservatory added to the side of the property. This provides an additional year-round family living and dining space, with lovely views over the garden and countryside.
Step inside the main house
The front door opens into a traditional entrance hall spanning the full width of the house, with the wooden staircase at its centre. Tucked away beneath the stairs is access to a secret cellar, well stocked with home-made preserves.
A door from the hall leads into the long double living room. Originally two separate rooms, it still offers two distinct spaces: a cosy sitting room with fireplace and wood burner at one end, and a more formal dining area at the other.
Opposite the living room is the inviting kitchen, featuring its original stone open fireplace. Impressive in summer, it becomes wonderfully cosy in winter when the fire is lit and the feu au pot simmers gently on the hob.
The conservatory, accessed from the kitchen, is a fantastic addition. Used as the main daily entrance to the house, it’s a perfect spot for meals, morning coffee, a crossword, or simply enjoying the surrounding countryside in comfort.
Behind the conservatory is a practical utility room housing the modern boiler and water heater.
Discover the first floor
The main staircase leads to a generous landing spanning the depth of the house, offering excellent storage space or room for a quiet reading area.
From here, all four bedrooms and the bathroom are accessed.
The mauve bedroom has been recently updated and includes wall-to-ceiling storage behind sliding doors, with views over the cedar tree and gardens. Opposite is the orange bedroom, also with double windows overlooking the front of the house.
The blue bedroom is a bright double with dual-aspect windows facing north and west. Finally, the palm bedroom faces north and east, completing the accommodation on this floor.
The guest accommodation
Off the entrance hall is a spacious ground-floor bedroom with ensuite WC, bidet and sink. This room forms part of a separate apartment created for the owners’ elderly parents.
With its own kitchen, shower/utility room and conservatory — and in need of some updating — it would make an ideal grandparents’ annexe, teenage retreat or guest accommodation (paying or otherwise). There is also potential to extend into the adjacent garage space.
Let’s take a look outside
The outbuildings
At the entrance to the property is a 775m² hangar incorporating a garage, workshop and stables. Originally used for farming machinery, it could easily be adapted for animals, vehicle storage or other uses.
The gardens
The gardens in front of the house are clearly much loved, with established plants and flowers beneath the towering 126-year-old cedar tree. Behind the house, chickens rule the roost alongside a vegetable plot, well and fruit trees — ideal for those seeking the good life.
The property is sold with approximately 2 hectares of land surrounding the house, with an additional 4 hectares available by separate negotiation.
