A farmhouse for sale in Lot-et-Garonne (47), a Gascon farm building or a barn to renovate near the confluence of the Lot and the Garonne: this department of orchards and fertile land keeps a varied stock of farm buildings, still affordable outside the most sought-after valleys. This page brings together the farmhouses, barns and mas for sale in Lot-et-Garonne published on ma-propriete.fr: a Pays de Serres farm with outbuildings, a Gascon stone barn with a timber frame, an Albret farm building, a former holding with a cowshed and land. Proximity to the Garonne, the quality of the orchards and the general condition of the buildings are among the criteria that most set listings apart from one another.
Below you will find the actual prices of the Lot-et-Garonne rural market, an overview of where to look, from Pays de Serres to Albret, and the points to check before buying a former farm building. If your project is tourism-related, our white paper on setting up a rural gîte will help you cost it. Local agents and notaries know these files well, combining older buildings, orchards and sometimes appellation vineyards.
There are no statistics dedicated to farmhouses and barns: a renovated farmhouse sells like a country house with outbuildings and land, whereas a bare barn or a farm to renovate often sells well below. The most useful benchmark therefore remains the price of country houses.

A departmental average hides large gaps. A smallholding to renovate, a restored longère with its outbuildings, a farmhouse on several hectares of land or a manor house with parkland do not sell at the same price, and the location matters as much as the building: coastline, tourist area, peri-urban countryside close to a job market or deep countryside. The table below shows the median price of country houses in Lot-et-Garonne (47) by type of municipality (cumulative sales from mid-2020 to 2025) and its change between 2021 and 2025.

The farm building of the Pays de Serres, the narrow ridge-and-valley hills that run across the south of the department, pairs a dwelling of limestone or pebble with a cowshed and a barn set at right angles around a courtyard. In Albret, further west, buildings come closer to Gascon farmhouses, sometimes with a visible timber frame on the outbuildings. Mas and bastide are not local terms for farms here, even though the department has many historic bastides, fortified medieval villages unrelated to farm buildings.
Pays de Serres stone barns, often modest in size, convert into a home or gîtes subject to an approved change of use in an agricultural zoning area. The adjoining farmland — plum orchards, vines or pasture depending on the area — suits keeping horses or a permaculture project on well-exposed valley terraces. Some farms still have a tobacco or prune drying shed, an outbuilding typical of the department's traditional farming.
In the Pays de Serres, around Lauzun and Monflanquin, and in Albret, towards Nérac and Casteljaloux, the choice of farms and barns to renovate is the widest, in a rural settlement scattered across the hills. The Fumélois area, to the east towards Fumel, completes this affordable zone.
Along the Garonne valley, between Agen and Marmande, farm buildings on the fertile alluvial terraces prized for fruit growing trade above the departmental average. Towards Villeneuve-sur-Lot and the Lot valley, proximity to the plum orchards also pushes up prices for well-located properties. Between the two, the Duras area and its vine-covered hillsides form an intermediate zone, between the Bordeaux area and farming Lot-et-Garonne.
Check the building's permitted use under the local zoning plan: in an agricultural zone, a barn can only become a home if it appears on the list of buildings eligible for a change of use. Check the roof (canal tile, asbestos-cement sheets common on farm sheds), the timber frame and the drainage, worth examining carefully on isolated farms in the Pays de Serres hills. An asbestos survey and a check on the condition of the timber frame are recommended before buying an old barn in this area.
If farmland comes with the property, ask about any current farm lease, especially for orchards, and the pre-emption right of the Safer, active in this fruit-growing department. Finally, cost the renovation of an old barn or farm building precisely before committing.
On ma-propriete.fr, filter Lot-et-Garonne farms and barns by budget, built area and land area, set up an email alert to be told of new listings, and extend your search to all farmhouses, barns and mas for sale in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. It is also worth comparing the nature of the adjoining land, orchards, vines or pasture, a decisive criterion for the profitability of a future farming project.
