Stunning secluded 18th Century Chartreuse (Toulouse/Bordeaux) pool and tennis

This is a stunning country house built as the summer home of a wealthy French family. The accommodation is remarkably on one floor spread over some 4000sq ft (500 sq m) of living accommodation, surrounded by several acres of private garden and built around a gravelled courtyard with its own covered barbeque and eating area. The property benefits from its own private swimming pool and tennis court and is approached by a private drive and set back 100 metres from the little used public road .It is no more than a 3 minute drive from Francescas and 20 minutes drive from Condom, Nerac or Agen with the Pyrennees, Toulouse or Bordeaux an easy drive away.

This is a picturesque bastide approximately twenty minutes from the two old towns of Nerac and Condom. Agen, the city renowned for plums and prunes, is again 20 minutes away towards the A2 autoroute between Bordeaux and Toulouse. This is Armagnac country and as far as the eye can see, the Tuscan- like countryside is overwhelming and breathtaking.
