Description
Nestled in the picturesque region of Midi-Pyrénées, Tarn-et-Garonne, in the charming town of Caussade, France, this enchanting 5-bedroom country chateau offers a rare blend of historic charm and modern comfort. As a real estate agent, I've seen my fair share of properties, and this one is truly unique. So, let me take a moment from my very busy schedule to walk you through this exceptional home and its wonderful surroundings.
Situated on 1.9 hectares of lush gardens, this property is a true gem for anyone looking for a quiet retreat with a touch of history. Originally built in the 16th Century, this chateau is set over three floors in an L-shape around a central stone staircase. The ground floor greets you with a large living room and dining room, each boasting grand fireplaces, perfect for cozy evenings by the fire. The kitchen is a blend of rustic and modern, featuring an Aga stove and a wood burner, ideal for those who love to cook. An additional reception room offers an arched ceiling that elegantly matches the original 14th-century arched coaching entrance.
The fabulous spiral stone staircase is a centerpiece in the tower, leading you to the first and second floors. Here, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, each with its ensuite bathroom, providing ample personal space for a large family or visiting guests. A fifth bedroom and a separate bathroom are also available. Storage won't be an issue, with plenty of built-in spaces around the tower and a large utility room housing the new boiler for the gas central heating system.
Outside, there's a second large building with endless potential for renovation, coupled with a swimming pool, offering excellent opportunities for customization and expansion. Additionally, a 2-bedroom mobile home available by separate negotiation could serve as guest accommodation or even a rental property.
