Nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after Golden Triangle, just 1km from a vibrant
and authentic village with bakery, delicatessen, mini-market, restaurants and a range of
everyday amenities, this beautifully restored stone property combines timeless
character with modern comfort in one of the most desirable locations in South-West
France.
Ideally positioned between Cordes-sur-Ciel, Castelnau-de-Montmiral and Gaillac, and
within easy reach of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Albi and the historic market
town of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, the property enjoys access to some of the region's
most beautiful hilltop bastides and medieval villages. Surrounded by vineyards, rolling
countryside, olive groves and seasonal sunflower fields, the setting captures the very
essence of rural South-West France. Many of the neighbouring vineyards belong to
some of the region's most respected wine producers, contributing to the exceptional
beauty and authenticity of the landscape.
The beautifully landscaped grounds have been designed for enjoyment rather than
maintenance, allowing owners to embrace the countryside without the burden of
managing extensive acreage. A 30m² covered dining terrace overlooks the impressive
13-metre saltwater swimming pool, framed by attractive Indian sandstone paving and
enjoying beautiful west-facing views across the gardens and surrounding countryside.
Whether enjoying morning coffee, long summer lunches, entertaining family and friends
or evening aperitifs as the sun sets over the vineyards, the outdoor living spaces
provide an exceptional setting throughout the seasons. A variety of sunny and shaded
seating areas, covered parking and a versatile barn suitable as a games room, workshop
or garage further enhance the property's appeal.
Offering five bedrooms, generous room proportions throughout and excellent flow
between living spaces, the property provides substantial accommodation without the
burden of excessive maintenance. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved over
many years, it is ready to be enjoyed from day one, whether as a permanent residence,
luxury holiday home or lock-up-and-leave retreat.
The bright and welcoming interior is filled with charm and authenticity. Several inviting
reception rooms provide flexibility for both family life and entertaining, while the
generous kitchen forms the heart of the home. A dedicated office enjoys magnificent
panoramic views across the vineyards and surrounding countryside, creating an
inspiring setting for remote working or quiet reflection. The elegant dining room,
complete with real wood flooring, complements the spacious and comfortable living areas.
Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for
family and guests. Three bedrooms benefit from ensuite facilities, including the
principal suite, while an additional shower room and generous landing area offer
further space for reading, relaxation or occasional home working.
Modern upgrades have been carefully integrated to complement the property's original
features. App-controlled climate systems, an alarm system, high-speed fibre broadband
and a premium WiFi mesh network provide seamless connectivity throughout both the
house and gardens.
Combining character, comfort, beautiful views, modern connectivity and village life
within walking distance, this distinctive property represents a rare opportunity to
acquire an exceptional country home in one of the most sought-after locations in the
Tarn.
