Country property with pool

Step quietly into the pages of World of Interiors

This impeccably restored 18th-century stone farmhouse sits prettily in the rolling valleys of South-West France, offering timeless character with thoroughly modern comforts.

Set within just under a hectare of fully fenced gardens—so your horse, donkey, or more free-spirited residents remain safely at home—the property has been restored to an exceptional standard. Recent upgrades include a new septic tank system, a new pompe à chaleur heating system, and a magnificent newly installed salt-water swimming pool with electric cover and its own heat pump. The pool is beautifully framed within the ancient stone walls of a former barn and opens onto a decked sun terrace made for long afternoons and chilled apéritifs.

The four-bedroom house, arranged over three floors, is rich in period features: exposed stonework, beamed ceilings, elegant panelling, travertine flooring, an original staircase and a handsome stone chimney. The heart of the home is a cosy yet stylish kitchen/sitting room, complete with a log-burning range cooker, fitted units and a second electric oven—ideal for both passionate cooks and enthusiastic tasters.

On the first floor, a generous sitting room and study area offer light-filled, tranquil spaces alongside tasteful contemporary bathrooms. The top floor provides a delightful surprise: a cargo-net style lounging area, perfect for relaxing, reading or simply watching the light flood in while pondering how well this all turned out.

Outside, a large covered terrace sets the scene for effortless al fresco dining. There are various outbuildings, a gated entrance with parking, a well and water storage, and glorious open views across the surrounding countryside. Mature trees and idyllic gardens complete the picture.

All this serenity, yet shops are just five minutes away, Agen is 30 minutes (with fast TGV links to Paris), and Toulouse Airport is under an hour.

Offered at a price that would be impossible to recreate today, this is one of those rare properties where everything has already been done—leaving nothing more demanding than unpacking and deciding where to enjoy the sunset.
