Picture Perfect
Surrounded by 10 hectares of meadow and arable land and approached by a long drive, this light and elegant farmhouse stands peacefully amid sweeping lawns and mature trees. Its mediaeval origins, with historic links to ‘le Chemin de Compostelle’, are discreetly evident within parts of the property. The house has been professionally restored by the current owners combining original features and modern comfort. It has four bedrooms, one of which is on the ground floor; each with a bathroom or shower room. Although in a secluded position, the property is only a few minutes’ drive from the centre of Condom, an attractive town with a wide variety of shops, restaurants and services. The accommodation has pleasingly generous proportions on both floors, with attractive period features, fireplaces and, in some rooms, beamed ceilings. The spacious Salon, the centre-piece of the house, is great for entertaining and for cozy evenings in front of a log fire in winter. The large kitchen/diner has French doors opening onto a charming north-facing terrace and tree-edged lawn, perfect for enjoying a meal en plein air. There is also a comfortable Study/Library and a Family Room. When friends and family visit (and they will !) there is a completely independent 1st floor apartment, with its own entrance, above the old cowshed and a room that is currently used as an office. Situated in the outbuildings, it is at a discreet distance from the main house, for maximum privacy. A well-tended garden surrounds the house with a variety of mature trees providing cool shade in summer heat, attractive shrubs, roses, and plants contributing to a Provençal feel. The arable land, along with the small vineyard, is managed by a neighbouring farmer, assuring beautiful vistas of wheat or sunflowers in summer. The meadows are filled with stunning wild flowers in Spring and the surrounding countryside views are a delight, ensuring this is THE place to be to live the French dream in South West France. Rarely does one come across such beauty and refinement in a perfect location.
