OverviewA beautiful chartreuse-style stone house with guest house, set in delightful private gardens with lovely countryside views close to one of the Gers most historically interesting villages.Renovated to a high standard and set over two floors, this property is ideal for hosting with its seven bedrooms and childrens dormitory. Wandering around we cant help but imagine large family gatherings or delightful soires in the generous entertaining spaces.Outside, a wonderful terrace overlooks a large swimming pool, and a second, covered terrace is the perfect lounging area complete with hanging day bed. As well as the large living and dining rooms, the cinema room, playroom and summer kitchen add to the entertaining possibilities, ensuring total relaxation and leisure.We approach the property through grand ornate iron gates and along a winding gravel drive surrounded by gardens on all sides, thoughtfully planted with flowers, shrubs and trees. Ample parking space is available at the end of the drive.The main houseWe enter through double-glazed, hand painted wooden doors into a large entrance room with chequerboard tiled floor and an elegant working fireplace.Head straight through glazed double doors into a hallway from which three double ensuite bedrooms can be found.All are beautifully appointed with modern shower rooms and WCs, some with double-glazed doors that open directly onto the impeccably maintained gardens.Further along the hallway is a handy storage room with built-in cupboards, and another part-glazed door leading out on the terrace.The ground floor living areasBack in the central hallway, we enter a room currently used as a study and fitted out with handmade bookshelves.We are then drawn to a large dining room which flows seamlessly to the kitchen and spacious living room. The suspended view from these rooms is mesmerising and the owners have ensured it is fully captured from all angles by adding full width windows and central double-glazed doors along the entire wall. Light floods the room and, in cooler months, the grand stone fireplace is the perfect place to cosy up in front of a roaring fire with a good book. With its terracotta floor, laid throughout the entire ground floor, exposed beams and impressive stone fireplace this room is full of character and an exceptionally serene place to relax.At the other end of the hallway are some practical utility spaces including a WC, laundry room and more cupboards.The kitchenThe modern kitchen is accessed via the dining room as well as from the outside covered terraced. It has been decorated in a cheerful orange colour scheme with induction hob, fitted oven and plenty of fitted base and wall cupboards.The first floorWe climb the original oak stairs beneath a stunning glass chandelier and arrive at a landing from which the master suite can be accessed. The bedroom benefits from a large adjoining shower room with a separate WC, a vast walk-in dressing room fitted with open wardrobes and hanging rails.Also on this floor is a cinema room and and a childrens bedroom / playroom with eight sweet cabin beds prettily dressed with curtains through which we can imagine tiny giggling faces peeping.A door from the cinema room opens into a warm and immaculate attic area which doubles as a laundry drying space but could be developed into an additional room.The indoor-outdoor leisure spacesAlongside the kitchen is an attractive and inviting covered terrace area with tiled floor and original beams. Decorated in Moroccan style, with comfortable hanging beds, softly draping fabric and sheer floor length curtains which float pleasantly in the wind, it is the perfect place to relax or host an aperitif on a hot summers evening.Further along the terrace, a games room offers additional entertainment thanks to its pool and football tables, and next to it a summer kitchen links back to the inside of the main house.The guest houseAccessed from both the garden terrace and the main gravel driveway is
