Description
EXCEPTIONAL CASTLE - PANORAMIC VIEWS AND HISTORICAL HERITAGE
ON THE BORDER BETWEEN TARN-ET-GARONNE AND GERS
This unique property, built in a commanding position and surrounded by fortified walls, overlooks the rolling countryside of Lomagne and enjoys a 360° panoramic view, with no neighbors in a peaceful setting.
Between a medieval square tower and the former 12th-century Templar commandery, a charming castle was built over the following centuries and up until the 17th century, now equipped with all modern amenities.
Various adjoining outbuildings totalling 750m² complete this remarkable horseshoe-shaped architectural ensemble, built around a charming garden sheltered from view.
The château comprises two converted towers, one dating from the 11th century and topped by a panoramic terrace, and another smaller one dating from the 16th century.
A large landscaped terrace of 100m² with remarkable terracotta balusters adorns one of the facades, while two other terraces enhance the other sides.
The château can be accessed either from the south via a magnificent stone staircase from the lower street, built over a delightful little garden, or from the north via an entrance protected by a porch. To the east, the vast outbuilding, a former Templar commandery of 450 m² on three levels, is accessible from the street and can be used as a garage for several cars. It could also be renovated to become a superb living space.
The garden also opens onto the outside through a wooden gate next to the village church.
The heart of the castle offers approximately 350 m² of living space, combining remarkable architectural features with contemporary comfort.
The bright and welcoming entrance hall is the heart of the house and features a large wooden staircase leading to the bedrooms upstairs.
On the ground floor, there is a large living room, a charming library nestled in the square tower, and a dining room with a large medieval fireplace opening onto the 100 m² terrace.
To the south is a fitted kitchen with a beautiful wooden mantelpiece and a utility room leading to the interior garden and large adjoining spaces housing a laundry room, boiler room, workshop, and various amenities.
The upper floor, recently insulated after the full restoration of the roof and attic, has five bedrooms, two of which have their own bathroom, as well as two shower rooms.
A small staircase leads to the attic and the terrace of the former keep.
The building is flanked by various outbuildings (stables, wine cellar, barns, storage rooms, additional garage) below and other wonderful surprises…
The property also has a swimming pool located on a separate piece of land just a few steps away, planted with numerous fruit trees.
In this remarkable property, you can travel through time simply by changing rooms.
