Property Description
Set on the crest of a hill at the end of a long private drive, this remarkable Gascon property enjoys an exceptional setting, with no close neighbours and far-reaching views over rolling countryside, woodland and valleys.
The gardens, created by a local landscape designer during the restoration, are one of the property's defining features. The spectacular infinity pool, with its organic lines, appears to merge seamlessly with the horizon. Water flows continuously through a clever system of cascades and overflows, while the gently sloping access makes the pool particularly inviting. Nearby, a professional-standard tennis court is discreetly hidden behind a stone wall and mature planting.
A large covered terrace with its own outdoor kitchen and beer tap completes an area designed for long summer lunches, relaxed entertaining and evenings with friends.
From the front, the house retains the elegant, symmetrical proportions of a traditional Gascon maison de maître. When the current owners first discovered it, the property required a complete restoration. They subsequently brought together the original house and adjoining stone barn to create a home that is both impressive and luxurious while remaining deeply respectful of its architectural character.
Two elegant reception rooms occupy the historic part of the house. To the rear, the former agricultural spaces have been transformed into generous living areas. The bespoke kitchen, fitted with a Lacanche range cooker and an impressive black granite sink, opens into a spacious dining room with an original fireplace and direct access to the terrace.
A private bar, a dedicated wine cellar and a mezzanine library further reflect a house designed for generous entertaining.
Upstairs, the property offers five to six bedrooms arranged across several distinct areas, together with beautifully appointed bathrooms. The principal suite includes its own bathroom and an additional upper-level bedroom, creating an almost self-contained private space.
Throughout the house, materials have been selected with exceptional care, combining exposed stone, terracotta flooring, bespoke joinery and discreet contemporary details.
This is a property for those seeking complete peace and privacy, authentic Gascon character and an unusually high level of comfort, as well as a home created for welcoming family and friends in a truly exceptional setting.
