One of the bedrooms has an en-suite shower room and another on the ground floor could be used as an office. There are three bathrooms/shower rooms and generous living spaces suitable for family life, entertaining or holiday lettings.
The house underwent a complete restoration by the current owners around 14 years ago. The first floor was entirely rebuilt with a solid structure of beams and concrete blocks and fully tiled.
The roof has also been fully renovated and insulated, whilst retaining the traditional 'canal'-style tiles, exposed beams and vaulted ceilings. Two staircases provide easy access to both ends of the first floor. With its solid wood doors, double glazing, electric heating and high quality fitted kitchen, the property is ready to move into.
Outside, the house is set amongst lovely gardens and a gravel-covered courtyard. Lawns and paths lead to the impressive 12 m x 6 m private saltwater swimming pool, which is securely fenced off and provides a wonderful gathering place to enjoy summer life.
A large stone-roofed barn, used for leisure and entertaining, overlooks the garden and swimming pool and provides additional space for al fresco dining, relaxation and socialising with family or friends. There is a double garage with a gravel parking area capable of accommodating more than four cars, an adjoining storage building at the back. The property covers a total area of over 5,200 m2.
A large, separate utility room has its own access from the rear courtyard and houses the hot water system. The main electric hot water system provides sufficient capacity even when the house is hosting up to 12 adults; an additional heat-pump hot water tank is installed but is not currently in use.
The house is officially classified as a 4-star Meuble de Tourisme with an exceptional 10/10 Vrbo guest rating, a proven track record of seasonal letting whilst being equally well suited as a substantial and comfortable private home. In 2026, the owners achieved 3900 EUR/week in high season.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the house is not isolated. Varen, on the banks of the River Aveyron, is easily accessible and offers shops, a chemist, a medical centre, restaurants and a strong sense of community with cultural and summer activities that enrich village life. The famous medieval town of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, renowned for its Sunday market, historic centre, cafes, restaurants and riverside setting, is only a short drive way.
Lexos railway station is less than a ten minutes drive away and offers direct regional rail links to Toulouse, Gaillac, Cordes-sur-Ciel, Villefranche-de-Rouergue and Figeac.
The current owners are remaining in the area which they love and are looking to retire.

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.
