Cahuzac sur Vere, Tarn €245,000

This lovely old stone built farmhouse and outbuildings is arranged in an L-shape around a courtyard which also has a pigeonnier in it. The house has 4 bedrooms, the master of which is en-suite, plus a family bathroom. It is configured in such a way as to make it possible to create a small one bedroom gite at one end, subject of course to the usual permissions. The present owners have lived in the property for almost 10 years and during that time they have carried out a comprehensive program of refurbishment. This includes installing double glazing, replacing shutters and the flooring to the first floor, decorating throughout and upgrading the principal kitchen. A particular feature of the house are the encaustic tiles floors which have been retained in a couple of the rooms. They are moving because they feel it is time to live somewhere smaller. The outbuildings, which have great potential include an old winery complete with some of the original wine vats and press, the pigeonnier which has a first floor and a cellar, covered parking and a covered well. The property also has a rural outlook across the adjacent farmland, a well stocked garden of around 3600 sq metres and it is only 2 kilometres from the local village.
