Toulouse, Midi-Pyrénées 31000

A 19th century farmhouse and its outbuildings in parkland of more than 4 hectares between Toulouse and Montauban, on the banks of the Tarn, in the Occitanie region. Accessed via a driveway that leads to its entrance gate, the property is set in landscaped parkland planted with trees, grasslands, shrubbery and flower beds, as well as a spring that flows down to the banks of the River Tarn. At the end of a wide, curved gravelled driveway, behind a wooded area, the faade of the farm's main building is revealed. It is made up of three single-storey buildings: a shed housing a vast garage, a dovecote and the main dwelling. The date when the farmhouse was built is engraved on an attic wall: 1854. The buildings are traditional constructions, made with bricks, wood and canal tiles, with two- or four-sloped roofs the decor is subdued and the windows are straight or with low arches. A complete renovation of the buildings has been carried out according to the rules of the trade: particular attention has been paid to preserving and enhancing the old features, using noble, environmentally-friendly materials and modern equipment and technologies such as salt water treatment for the swimming pool and double-glazing for the windows. The various buildings are linked by the gravel path, which also leads to the swimming pool. Opposite them, an oak forest leads to the spring and pond in the parkland.
