4 acres of glorious land with gardens and pool, while enjoying panoramic views from its peaceful location in Le Segur.
Set among the hills, woods, steep valleys and pastures of the Segala region is this stunning and unique traditional farmstead, now transformed into a spacious and tasteful 510m2 home.
The house has many original features including 19th century plasterwork, exposed beams and stone walls. It has been well renovated and is ideal for family and friends to get together in comfort, with five large living rooms, three of them equipped with cosy log burners. Each of the seven good-sized bedrooms has its own shower-room/WC or bathroom/WC.
The house is a single, fully interconnecting whole, but two areas can be separate and are regularly rented out as tourist accommodation (a future owner would need to obtain necessary permission and appropriate business registration).
Outside there is a swimming pool with an adjacent covered terrace, and an open-fronted games room. The former farmyard is now a very private courtyard garden with mature planting.
Two further outhouses offer potential for further development, subject to the necessary planning permission.
The main house faces south and has fine views across the Cerou Valley towards the Montagne Noire and the Pyrenees. Monesties, one of 'les plus beaux villages de France', is only 2 miles away and has shops, restaurants and a lively summer evening market.
The international airport at Toulouse is 80 minutes away.

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.
