vic-fezensac, Midi-Pyrénées, Address available on request

This stunning property is 260 years old and is full of charm and authenticity with its original pigeon loft. It is in a peaceful location but only a few minutes from a small village. The nearest neigbours are 300 metres away and it has a fabulous tree-lined private drive. This is an ideal property for a B&B as there are 4 lovely, spacious bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. A habitable surface area of 253 m² has been renovated with great care and taste and there is a further 103m² which can be renovated to create more bedrooms, a holiday cottage or a workshop. The land, just over 4 hectares (10 acres), is comprised for half its surface area of the property's grounds with mature trees and a well, and the other half is meadow. There is a small stream between the two parts of the land which feeds a little pond that is at the entrance to the beautiful drive leading up to the house with its ancient cedar trees.
For outbuildings, there is a stone henhouse which has been transformed into a summer kitchen and is also used for storage next to a lean-to, as well as an old stone armagnac store with a smaller ruined barn forming a charming ensemble. Adjoining the house is a large garage of 52m² with a utility area and an electric car recharging point.
The house has a gorgeous entrance hall, cellar, a lovely farmhouse style kitchen and a light-filled living room with reversible air conditioning, a salon with wood-burner, a bedroom suite with walk-in shower, lavatory and double washbasin, a separate lavatory and a further bathroom with large shower and washbasin on the ground floor. Upstairs there are 3 beautiful bedrooms with 2 bathroms. The original features have been restored to a very high standard with clay tiles in the hallway, the original staircase with forged iron balustrade, an old stone sink, ceiling beams, marble fireplaces, ancient decorative plasterwork, old parquet floors and fitted cupboards. The roof is in very good order, except for the one on the pigeon loft which needs work. Throughout the house the windows are double glazed. The town of Vic-Fezensac, with full amenities, is only 5 minutes away.
