20 minutes from St Girons

Wouldn't it be lovely to live in the mountains, just 20 minutes from the nearest ski station yet only an hour from Toulouse airport and 20 minutes from the busy market town of St Girons?

This beautiful barn has been restored using only the highest quality materials, locally sourced wherever possible.

It is situated on a hectare of land - largely mature gardens with roses and fruit trees - leading down to a little river. Opposite the property is a large barn on two levels of 100mē each. The house is south-facing and has stunning mountain views. It has about 170 m2 of living space on 3 levels.

The entrance hall has flag-stones from the Lot. To the left is a feature stone sink outside the downstairs cloakroom. Also off the entrance hall is a study, a double bedroom and a large shower room. A final door leads to the utility room which has its own outside access.

A wooden staircase leads to the first floor. At the far end of this landing is an amazing construction, referred to by the owners as 'la grotte' (the grotto). A hole has been made in this wall to take a double bed - much loved by the owners' children as they were growing up.

Also on this level is a huge living space with central fireplace. The kitchen looks out over the mountains and has a large store area to the side of it.

On the next floor are two more bedrooms and a toilet and washbasin.

The house is situated is a small hamlet but opposite is an organic fruit and vegetable producer, next door is a plant nursery and a little further on is a cheese producer. There is a baker and grocer in the nearest village 2 km away.

A perfect holiday home for skiers or walkers.
