Country property with annexe, pool, outbuildings and land

A Rare Slice of Quercy Heaven

Tucked away at the end of a long private lane, with not a neighbour in sight and views that seem to roll on forever, this truly stunning country property offers a level of peace and privacy that is becoming almost impossible to find. And yet, remarkably, you are just eight minutes from the lively villages of Tournon-d’Agenais and Montaigu-de-Quercy, both famed for their bustling markets, excellent restaurants and everyday amenities.

Dating from the early 19th century, this handsome stone farmhouse is typical of the region in all the best ways—thick golden walls, characterful beams and timeless charm. What is not typical, however, is the inspired contemporary conversion that elegantly links the two original buildings. A sleek glazed aluminium corridor creates an extraordinary sitting room, bathed in natural light, with a log-burning stove, travertine and antique terracotta floor tiles, and magnificent exposed beams. Quite simply, it is the sort of room that makes entertaining feel effortless—and leaving rather difficult.

There is also a delightful separate sunroom with antique flooring, underfloor heating and glazed walls framing the surrounding countryside like a living painting.

The stylish country kitchen features oak worktops, an open fireplace and doors leading out to a terrace via a practical boot room—perfect after muddy walks across your own land. A charming stone outbuilding houses the utility room, workshop and, of course, the all-important bread (or pizza) oven.

The main ground-floor bedroom is a peaceful retreat with its own log burner and French doors opening onto the garden. Upstairs are two further beautifully styled, cosy bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

Comfort has not been forgotten: a heat-pump system, wine cave and thoughtful modern touches ensure this home offers as much practicality as it does charm.

And then there is the Bothy—a delightful second house offering superb guest accommodation or rental potential. With full-height ceilings, terracotta floors, two bedrooms with French doors onto a terrace and a cleverly concealed kitchenette, it is as stylish as it is welcoming.

Outside, the magic continues. There is a separate garage block with workshop, a large covered carport complete with electric vehicle charging point, and possibly the smartest chicken house in the département. A charming wooden chalet sits proudly atop the hill, enjoying breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside.

For relaxation and entertainment, the property boasts a superb 12 x 5m heated swimming pool with electric cover, a pétanque court, and a pergola perfectly positioned for long summer apéros as the sun sets over the valley.

All of this is set within approximately five hectares of beautiful grounds, combining lawn, woodland and a delightful spring-fed fish pond set into the bedrock, with its own natural water source.

If you are searching for a haven of tranquillity with a touch of luxury—where historic character meets contemporary style in one of the most beautiful corners of southwest France—then you may struggle to find anything quite like this.

In short: the calm, the views, the style… and yes, you may want to form an orderly queue.
