Description
At the end of a quiet no-through lane, in a preserved setting on the border of the Tarn and Aveyron departments, this beautiful stone property offers complete peace and privacy. Surrounded by woodland and with no neighbours nearby, it sits within more than 6 hectares of land bordered by a stream and enhanced by two natural springs.
Carefully renovated since 2009, the property comprises a 155 m² main house, a self-contained 23 m² ground-floor studio, an outbuilding with conversion potential, and a second dwelling offering 40 m² of living space (90 m² of total floor area) requiring some updating.
The main house is arranged around a charming 50 m² courtyard shaded by a pergola and a century-old kiwi vine. On the ground floor, a 19 m² kitchen with a wood-burning stove opens onto a 26 m² living room. A spacious 16.5 m² entrance hall, separate WC and a 21 m² utility/boiler room complete this level.
Upstairs, a stunning light-filled cathedral-style lounge opens onto a terrace overlooking the swimming pool and surrounding countryside. This floor also offers three bedrooms, including a lovely principal bedroom with direct access to the terrace through large French windows, a shower room and a dressing room with WC.
The 8 × 4 metre in-ground swimming pool is complemented by a 23.5 m² pool house, perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
The independent studio, complete with kitchen and shower room, provides ideal guest accommodation. Opposite the house, a small three-storey barn offers further development potential.
A second building includes a garage, workshop, storage areas and a covered shelter. Upstairs, an independent apartment with a covered terrace offers excellent possibilities for rental income or guest accommodation.
Set on the side of a green valley, the approximately 15 acres of land comprise a little over 3.5 acres of pastureland and the remainder woodland. A track leads down to the stream and lake that form the property's boundary.
Located in the Tarn Valley, just 10 minutes from Trébas and 15 minutes from Alban, where you will find essential shops and amenities including a riverside beach, a canoeing centre, weekly markets, a bakery, restaurants, a doctor's surgery and supermarkets, the property enjoys a highly desirable location.
Albi, renowned for its UNESCO World Heritage-listed Episcopal City and the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum, is only 45 minutes away. Three international airports, including Toulouse?Blagnac Airport, can be reached within 90 minutes.
This rare property is perfectly suited as a family home, holiday retreat or small scale tourism activity in a truly natural setting.
