HOUSE FOR SALE IN FRANCE NEAR TOULOUSE.

Property details:-

Self-contained 4 bedroom gite with established income;
spacious 3-bedroom living accommodation for owners;
dépendances (5 further rooms) with potential to convert to second gite.

This charming south-facing farmhouse is only an hour south west of Toulouse in an area rich in gastronomy and culture. Set in spectacular, peaceful countryside overlooking valleys and rolling hills, this property offers a genuine investment opportunity. Le Pigeonnier stands in 3.27 ha (over 8 acres) of meadows, orchard and gardens and makes an idyllic country home whilst offering the opportunity to continue the existing owners’ successful gite business if desired. The gite has been fully let at £995/ 1450 euros per week for 4 summers with many repeat bookings. The dépendances (in completely habitable condition) can easily be converted to a second 2-bedroom gite or used as a separate (Granny) annexe.

Full of character and with an abundance of unspoilt features, the L-shaped house has been largely restored. It has full central heating, substantial re-wiring and has been re-roofed within the last fifteen years. Dating from the early 1700’s the house is built in the typical Gascogne style with much of the first floor having eaved ceilings and a wealth of exposed oak timbers throughout. The first floor accommodation is generous and spacious with ceiling heights ranging from over 3 metres but with restricted headroom at wall edges throughout.

Within the owners’ living accommodation are 3 bedrooms, 2 shower rooms (1 not finished), a 60+ m sq. living room, music room and snug with large working fireplace.

The self-contained gite comprises spacious kitchen/ breakfast room, large dining room, salon with feature fireplace, utility room with central heating boiler and WC. The first floor bedrooms are currently arranged so as to sleep 9 people; also on the first floor are a bathroom, a shower room and separate WC.

In the garden there is an above-ground swimming pool (8.5m x 4.7m) newly decked in solid French oak providing a large patio area for sun-beds, barbecues and relaxing. Adjacent is a hardwood garden tonnelle (gazebo) for al fresco meals and drinks. In addition, there are 2 terracotta-tiled terraces – 1 in excess of 100 m sq. – both with views over the valleys and village. The organic orchard produces good crops of (mainly) apples, pears, cherries, plum, apricots and figs, as well as walnuts and almonds. A large open barn (approximately 11m x 6m) is located to the rear of the house. Views of the Pyrennees can be seen from the higher ground.
