Ségur, Midi-Pyrénées 12290

A 19th-century presbytery with a walled garden, nestled between the towns of Millau and Rodez among the hills and lakes of France's beautiful Aveyron department. The presbytery stands in a walled garden in the shade of an age-old hornbeam tree. The edifice comes into view beyond a large carriage entrance. Its plain facade with exposed stonework displays pleasant symmetry. On the north side, outhouses offer possibilities for development. A gabled roof of local stone tiles crowns the house. This roof was recently renovated completely. The house's south-facing elevation is punctuated with a sculpted central doorway and eight windows. Most of the windows are large-paned and the others are small-paned. The windows have ashlar surrounds and are fitted with painted shutters. A terrace at the same level as the ground floor links the entrance to the garden. And a discreet annexe adjoins the house on its east side. Lastly, on the north side, there are two outbuildings. One of them needs to be renovated. These outbuildings offer a range of possibilities for development, for example for creating a workshop or a guesthouse.
