Historic country estate with guest house and park
Description
Behind its sober façade, this castle reveals a world of elegance, heritage, and serene grandeur. Rebuilt in the 19th century on the foundations of a former noble estate, it reflects the refined simplicity of Italian-inspired neoclassical residences that once dotted the Gers countryside. Wide staircases, impressive high ceilings, period fireplaces, original architectural details, and reception rooms with harmonious proportions bathed in natural light all contribute to creating a timeless atmosphere. Spread over four levels, the castle offers generous and comfortable living spaces, equally suited to family life and elegant receptions. An independent guest house, a former wine cellar, and stables complete the property, while the surrounding park offers privacy, tranquility, and a deep connection with the landscape. What makes this castle particularly appealing is its human scale: grand enough to inspire, yet intimate enough to remain a true home, carefully preserved and designed to be lived in rather than merely admired.
