Description
This elegant and characterful 19th-century property, set on 3.5 hectares near Plaisance and Marciac with views of the Gascon hills, will appeal to discerning future owners who appreciate tranquility and privacy. In the Gers region, space is a luxury, but in fact, it's a way of life. The solid U-shaped stone building, with its pebble-filled walls, offers 700m² of usable space, including 400m² of heated living area, and has been meticulously restored. It overlooks the walled, centuries-old, flower-filled park and comprises twelve rooms in the main house, including seven bedrooms, four bathrooms (plus a summer shower room), several reception rooms and lounges, a kitchen, and a pantry. This family home offers the potential to easily create a gîte and bed and breakfast. No work is required; refinement is guaranteed. The quest for authenticity doesn't preclude modern comforts: beautiful exposed beams, parquet flooring, French-style ceilings, a Gascon staircase with a landing and Béarnaise-style pintles, terracotta tiles, fireplaces, wooden floors, an oeil-de-boeuf window, Genoese-style cornice, sandstone framing, wrought ironwork, a pediment, Salernes tiles, and lime plaster. Efficient central heating and fiber optic internet are also provided. Daily life extends outdoors. The bucolic, rustic ambiance reinforces the spirit of southern homes with easy maintenance. The former 180m² wine cellar, now a reception area, evokes a Provençal feel: high ceilings, heartwood oak beams, stone walls, wrought-iron windows, and an extension onto a 150m² covered terrace with exposed stone. Enjoy convivial moments over a glass of Madiran wine and relax in the garden and swimming pool. A summer kitchen and bathroom allow you to enjoy the outdoors for much of the year. The 15x5 meter swimming pool and its pool house, located in the former outbuildings, with a stone terrace enclosed by walls and somewhat secluded, offer stunning views of the sought-after Gascon hills. The property is centered around a centuries-old, flower-filled park of approximately 3,000 square meters, enclosed by walls. The adjoining 3 hectares of woods and pastureland evoke the rural Gers region, where agriculture and farming naturally coexist. A garage, workshop, and small parking area are available. This is a family home, ideal for friends and hosting, located 20 minutes from Marciac and its renowned Jazz in Marciac festival, 35 minutes from Tarbes (TGV station) and airports, and 45 minutes from Pau. Attractive shops, restaurants, a cinema, doctors, and other amenities are just 6 minutes away in Plaisance-du-Gers. More than just a magazine-worthy house, a house brimming with LIFE... Unpack your bags for a holiday or for the year! A place that has perhaps become rare, free from any disturbances. I could share a few snippets of its history with you; write your own!
