Enter through the front door directly into the main living space (50 m2) with kitchen and dining area at one end, and seating around the open fireplace at the other. Large French windows giving onto garden.
Wooden staircase to 1st floor bedrooms 1 and 2.
Right, into second reception room (28 m2) which could easily be transformed into a ground-floor bedroom suite accessible to wheelchair users, those with mobility issues, with disabilities. Large French windows giving onto garden.
From main living space through to WC and utility room with large walk-in larder/closet. Hot water tank, laundry sink. 90° wooden stairs to first floor bedroom 3.
Accessed from stairs next to utility room: Bedroom 3 (20 m2) with private bathroom. Bath, glass screen, with shower over, basin, WC.
The utility room and bedroom/bathroom suite above could be transformed into a small self-contained unit.
Accessed from stairs in living room:
At the end of the corridor, bedroom 1 (15 m2) with views to garden and private bathroom overlooking fields. Bath, glass screen, shower over, basin, WC.
Bedroom 2 (15 m2) with private bathroom, overlooking garden. Corner bath, separate shower, basin, WC.
Hot water tank in cupboard in the corridor.
Accessed from stairs leading up from the corridor outside bedrooms 1 and 2:
Two bedrooms of approximately 14 m2 each, under the eaves. With plenty of space despite the sloping ceilings, they share a bathroom. Bath, glass screen, shower over, basin, WC.
Large and very useful linen closet on the landing.
Exterior:
From the ground floor rooms, three wide French windows and the kitchen door all give onto the terrace which traverses the rear of the house. The kitchen door provides access directly to a generous seating area under the shady pergola. Ideal for outdoor dining in the warmer months. To the left, masonry barbecue and access to parking area for three cars. Access also to useful storeroom.
From this terrace, direct access to broad lawn with lavender border and small orchard. Below the level of the lawn and thus out of sight is the swimming pool terrace. A grassy lounge area is set slightly above the paved pool surround. A removable security fence and pool cover are provided.
The views are of tranquil countryside with no neighbours to be seen.
Moving back towards the house, to the left are some young fruit trees and around to the front of the house we cross the narrow lane to the well, boules piste and further plots of land bordered by a fig hedge. Potential as vegetable gardens or grazing.
This little-known area of France is a real find. The Tarn is a rural department with a very unspoiled aspect. This home is not far from medieval villages full of fascinating history and inviting restaurants serving local fare. The traditional culture of music, poetry and dance is still very much alive and when you come upon seasonal events making the most of this heritage you can really feel how the south-west, the region of Occitanie, formerly Midi-Pyrenees, is a region apart.
Within easy driving distance of the airports at Toulouse, Castres and Carcassonne, and of several train stations, the house feels isolated but is nicely accessible.
With a little imagination this property could work as two units: A one-bedroom, two-storey unit plus a five-bedroom unit over three floors, including a wheelchair-accessible suite (a little building work required to achieve this layout). This would give owners' accommodation plus a nice-sized bed and breakfast, for example.
