An impressive, Bourgeois-style property, with its stream, parkland, swimming pool and renovated stone buildings, surrounded by fields and meadows and on the edge of a delighful Aveyronnais village.

The spacious 8 bedroom manoire has been stylishly renovated to retain many authentic, character features and is full of charm.

Inside the main house a pellet burner, installed in 2022, powers the central heating system to ensure comfort throughout the manor house. Light flows in from every side and there are enticing views from the long hallway to the renovated barn across the driveway and to the delightful gardens and parkland at the rear of the property.
On the ground floor there is a galley kitchen, large kitchen/dining area with impressive fireplace, 2 salons, a gorgeous, formal dining room, WC and a 'secret' library, tucked away behind the stairs.

Upstairs there are 4 very spacious bedrooms and 3 shower rooms with WCs.
On the second floor there is the breathtaking attic of around 150m2 which spans the whole surface of the house and has a ceiling height of 9m.

Plenty of scope to let the imagination run riot with design ideas (subject to any necessary permissions.
The 'Stables' gite is a modern, well renovated space providing an open plan kitchen, dining and salon area to the ground floor and two bedroom spaces and modern shower room/WC upstairs. Perfect as an independent space for family or as a potential gite rental property.

The wonderfuly, rustic-looking 'events' barn belies its charming interior where superb parquet floors, meet ancient wooden beams and stone walls providing the most wonderful venue for weddings, family celebrations anniversaries and other celebratory events.
There is a professional kitchen next to the hall which can be used for servicing events and, upstairs, there is a light and airy bedroom for further guest accommodation, with access to an upper garden.

Across from the barn there is a smaller building with its own, small terrace and here there is a kitchen, salon, shower room and bedroom.

The theme is simplicity, rusticity and comfort and is perfect as a weekend get-away rental.

The swimming pool is set in its own parkland and is secluded and private.

There is a 2 storey, pigeonnier in the rear courtyard area, which houses the boiler room, laundry room, pellet hopper and storage area.

A very deep and beautifully constructed well, housed in a 'fairytale', stone, pigeonnier tower, with ivy trailing over it, is a fascinating feature and the subject of much fascination as it connects at a deep level with the underground stream that runs under the property.
There is an entrance to the underground river just below the terrace at the side of the property.

The property is surrounded by almost 6 hectares of meadows and woodland, in the heart of the countryside where peace and tranquility is assured.

The spot is truly magical and, as a venue for weddings and celebratory events, it is perfect.
As a fascinating, stylish, charming family domain, it is equally perfect.
A visit is essential to experience the charm that this lovely property has to offer.
Currently run as gites (a future owner may need to reapply for the necessary permissions and business registration).

Buying a Property in France

1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.

The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.

Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.

2. Paying the Deposit

Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.

3. On Completion

Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.

During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
