Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Midi-Pyrénées region, this charming stone house in the township of Montvalent offers you not just a property but an entire lifestyle. As a bustling real estate agent, I can tell you, properties like this don't come around everyday. Let's take a jaunt through this enchanting location and discover why living here could be your next adventure.
Picture this: You've just driven down a quaint tree-lined lane leading to your new abode, encased in 2 hectares of pure blissful oak parkland. The façade of this 3-bedroom stone house exudes the classic French elegance that one can only dream of. It's a place where history whispers through the stones, yet every modern convenience has been woven into its fabric.
Stepping through the grand entrance hall spanning a generous 30.5m2, there’s a sense of welcome and warmth. The living area of 72m2, complete with a soothing wood-burner and large windows, embraces you. The open-concept space flows seamlessly into a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen. Imagine evenings with a glass of local wine, your favorite dish simmering on the stove, while the sun dip below the oak trees outside.
The master bedroom is a personal sanctuary. At 21.3m2, it boasts a private terrace for morning coffees or sunset reflections. A dressing room and en-suite shower room add a touch of luxury. Two additional bedrooms, filled with natural light, are perfect for family or guests, who will share a second, equally charming shower room.
Practicality hasn’t been overlooked here either—there's a utility room and a double garage, not to mention a wine cellar for aficionados or enthusiastic beginners looking to start their collection. Now, for the creatively minded, the first-floor mezzanine, leading to a sprawling 70m2 room, awaits your vision. Whether conjuring up visions of an artist’s studio, a children’s play area, or extra bedrooms, the choice is yours.
Montvalent is more than just a location—it's a lifestyle. Here, the climate graces residents with mild winters and beautifully warm summers, just perfect for enjoying the property's swimming pool. Picture lazy afternoons beside the water, as children play nearby in the stone cottage that doubles as a guest house, complete with three workshop garages and rooms above—ideal for a budding craftsman or hobbyist.
This tranquil locale is perfect for nature lovers and those seeking slower paces. The Lot River meanders quietly nearby, where you can indulge in canoeing on serene afternoons or saddle up for some horse riding adventures. Cycling and walking options are endless, with trails abound offering breathtaking views of limestone plateaus and endless fields.
Montvalent sits only a brief drive from Martel, a town bursting with character and history. Here, charm meets convenience—quaint shops, gourmet experiences, and historical architecture promise delightful day trips or spontaneous outings. And just 14 kilometers in the opposite direction is Gramat—another quintessential town where the sense of community is as warming as the French sun.
With modern comforts such as air conditioning, underfloor heating, and solar panels that ensure energy efficiency, this home blends the best of tradition and technology. Considerations for the environment don't end there—a rainwater collection system helps keep the gardens lush and the pool sparkling.
