Wonderful old wine estate with a restored house and 32 ha

Imagine yourself in the heart of your 33-hectare (approximately 80-acre) rolling estate, with views stretching as far as the eye can see across the surrounding Tarn countryside and the charming village of Castelnau-de-Montmiral.  This former wine-growing estate enjoys a very peaceful location at the end of a lane and comprises a restored 5-bedroom stone house with terraces and gardens, a beautiful saltwater swimming pool, a four-car garage, further outbuildings, a former gîte in need of renovation, and a fishing pond.

The house has been carefully renovated using traditional materials, notably ‘Barthe Occitanie’ terracotta tiles, and the kitchen has recently been modernised with granite worktops and bespoke joinery.  The interior of the house offers a very fluid layout, with numerous doors opening onto the outdoor terraces – which are also paved with ‘Barthe Travertin Turc’ tiles – allowing you to enjoy the view to the full.

The house comprises a double-height entrance hall, a dining room, a large double-aspect living room with a wood-burning stove, a second living room, as well as a large kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room and a boiler room. On the first floor, there is a master suite with an en-suite shower room, two further bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and a large family bathroom serving the other two bedrooms.  The rooms on the first floor have lovely countryside views.

There is an impressive collection of stone outbuildings, including a large two-storey stone barn (approximately 100 m² per storey), a detached barn-garage with an open frontage (105 m²) capable of accommodating four cars, and, to the side, a two-storey cottage in need of renovation.  A large former wine chai (100 m²) could house a car collection or be converted into stables or for other purposes. Two further smaller stone buildings are situated to the side.

The gardens surround the house with various terraces and lawns leading to the large L-shaped saltwater swimming pool, measuring 10 m x 5 m and 8 m x 5 m, for a total length of 15 m. Sunny terraces surround the pool, allowing you to enjoy the view to the full.

Below the main chai, the land slopes down to a spring-fed coarse fishing lake covering an area of over 5,000 m², where tench, grass carp and perch await keen anglers.  The property in total  extends to about 32.56 ha (approximately 80 acres), comprising a mix of undulating arable land, permanent pasture and woodland.

Situated near a medieval village perched on a hilltop with numerous amenities, approximately one hour from Toulouse-Blagnac Airport and around twenty minutes from Gaillac and the A68 motorway, the estate enjoys a secluded and peaceful setting, whilst being ideally situated close to shops and amenities. Albi is about 35 minutes away.
