Maison à vendre, 317m², Roquecor

Description

House, annexe, swimming pool, garden.Historic stone property, occupying a quiet central position in a typical French village. It has been beautifully restored by its current owners, who have revived the original foundations with exceptional taste, combining impressive architectural proportions and stonework with elegant country interiors, which could have stepped straight from the pages of an interiors magazine.This four-bedroom house is full of period features, from the cozy living room with its huge antique fireplace to the beautiful beamed ceiling and original terracotta tiles. The ground floor bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, and a rustic kitchen with cast cement worktops and a glass door leading to the garden.An old wooden staircase leads you to the first floor where a large landing with stone walls leads you to the tastefully decorated bedrooms, with original fireplaces, exposed wooden floors and beamed ceilings, a comfortable family bathroom with an arched window, all overlooking the park.Outside, the fun really begins with the lawned gardens and the most splendid olive tree, surrounded by the vital 11 x 5m swimming pool with electric cover, travertine coping and sun terrace. Ancient stone steps lead up to the one-bedroom annex, again full of period features, with a lower floor currently used for storage, but with two arched doors leading to the lane outside, could easily make a large studio, art gallery or more guest accommodation with its own private access. At the other end of the garden is the best covered terrace in our books, ingeniously created from a former dwelling, with a full-height beamed ceiling, it is hard to imagine a better spot for al fresco dining, with access to a workshop and artist's studio on the first floor.All of this is located behind a gated entrance with ample off-road parking in the most beautiful village, and, just as if things couldn't get any better, it's just a stone's throw from the excellent local restaurant, other local amenities are just a five-minute drive away with practically everything you could wish for. With Toulouse airport just over an hour's drive away, if you're looking for a permanent home, this house has plenty to offer.
