Stone property close to Agen

Overview

Stone house, an additional two other stone houses, barns, pigeon tower, land.

Interior and Garden

The quintessential period French property, set in the most idyllic park like grounds of 8.5 hectares.  In a charming setting, with fabulous views over the surrounding countryside, just ten minutes from Agen with its TGV link to Paris. All in excellent structural condition, we are now looking for a new custodian for this historic property, hopefully blessed with excellent taste and sufficient funds to bring this sleeping beauty back to life.

Comprising of main stone house dating from the 18th century, in excellent condition but requiring some updating, with an abundance of period features, original terracotta flooring and ancient elm staircase.

Two further houses with new roofs, otherwise untouched, with some of the most remarkable period features I’ve seen, from stone gargoyle heads to vast fireplaces most likely looted from a nearby chateau after the revolution.

Large, period barn with a new roof, ideal for your classic car collection, restored pigeon tower crying out to be a gîte or the perfect home office, with numerous other outbuildings including three bread ovens.  All set in the most striking gardens with stone walls and gated entrance way, with established trees and box topiary, it really is the French dream with huge potential either as a family home with extra accommodation, a gîte business or an equestrian centre.

For all those discerning folk not looking for a crumbling chateau but who appreciate the finer things in life, look no further.
