Country property with pool, garage and garden

An Elegant 19th-Century Stone Farmhouse in Tarn-et-Garonne

Set in the gently rolling valleys of Tarn-et-Garonne, this impressive 19th-century stone farmhouse enjoys established gardens, captivating countryside views and a sense of timeless French rural charm. Approached via a private, tree-lined driveway, the house sits in a beautifully tranquil setting — yet it’s only a five-minute drive from the thriving village of Castelsagrat, with its excellent everyday facilities, bakery, shop and lively local spirit.

The farmhouse itself exudes character from the moment you arrive with a wide covered terrace, shaded by dappled sunlight and framed by the verdant garden. Nearby, the prettiest pond in town reflects the changing sky and invites moments of peaceful contemplation.

Step inside and you enter a world of generous proportions and authentic detail. The sitting room is a welcoming, light-filled space beneath lofty beamed ceilings, centred around a cosy log-burning stove that promises warmth and atmosphere in the cooler months. Here, you can imagine evenings with good wine, laughter and conversation that drifts out through open windows to the garden beyond.

The kitchen, with its well-appointed built-in cupboards and classic tiled floors, opens through French doors onto a private walled courtyard — a wonderfully intimate outdoor room for spring breakfasts or sunset aperitifs. Bedrooms throughout the house offer restful retreats, each with its own quiet charm, and the comfort of oil-fired central heating ensures year-round ease.

Outside, the gardens are a delight. Mature planting creates pockets of colour and shade, the swimming pool and sun terrace offer a private resort-like escape on warm summer afternoons, and a generous barn and garage provide ample space for cars, hobbies or storage — a practical complement to the idyllic setting.

While the property enjoys peaceful surroundings, it does lie alongside a rural road with a little passing traffic — a small concession for such effortless access and sweeping views across farmland and woodland.

For those who love country  life but value connections, this home is exceptionally well placed. Agen, with its fast TGV link to Paris, is around 35 minutes away, and Toulouse Airport can be reached in approximately an hour, offering ease for travel and visiting friends or family. And of course, the charms of Castelsagrat — shops, restaurants, community markets and the warm welcome of local life — are just minutes down the road.

This is not just a house; it’s a home that captures the spirit of southwest France, offering space, character, comfort and a rare sense of timeless beauty. If you’re enchanted by authentic period living, scenic vistas and gracious indoor-outdoor living — all with remarkable value — this farmhouse is waiting to be discovered.
