A place that is at once atypical, bucolic, full of aesthetics... intimate and open to this beautiful nature that offers us landscapes whose nuances vary with the seasons, just like the paintings of this artist who opens the doors to a unique universe. Located on the border of Gers and Tarn-et-Garonne, on a plot of land of approximately 6 ha, this country house of approximately 200 m² has been restored in a romantic style, respecting the beauty of the old elements and current comfort. As soon as we arrive in the garden, the tone is set: Barbouille, Capitaine & Pimpon, happy, welcome us without the slightest bark, then guide us to this beautiful stone residence imbued with a beautiful soul... On the ground floor: an entrance leads to an office, a living room, a bathroom with toilet, a kitchen and a bedroom transformed into a studio for the painter. The restoration has been meticulously thought out. A crawl space has been created. The old terracotta tiles and old parquet floors on this first level have been preserved. The walls have been coated, insulated, painted or paneled for some. All the new wooden frames in the house have been whitewashed and made into double glazing. Here, each object has been found and installed with poetry. Each room has been enhanced by a clever mix of materials and elements in natural shades. With the exception of the living room, the walls of which were painted by the owner as a backdrop, in a warm and velvety blue. There are real works of art hanging there, the formats of which, portraits, landscapes and decorative accessories seem to come straight from another time. The pretty kitchen has been deliberately arranged as it was in the past. An old sink, an old fireplace (with a motorized insert), small shelves and pantries dance with the paintings, candlesticks, baskets and utensils patinated by time. A new staircase, made of solid oak, leads us to the upper floor, built on joists. Dog-shaped windows have been installed there, which frees up space in the attic rooms which have been converted and equipped with reversible air conditioners. The landing gives access to two pretty bedrooms separated by a shower room, a separate toilet, as well as superb master bedroom and bathroom. This second level also communicates with the stable with an area of approximately 140 m2 which could accommodate any type of project. The roof of the main house has been completely redone and insulated. It extends onto a barn of approximately 150 m². Lanterns, old tables, stools and old-fashioned seats give the place a country atmosphere in which guests and family enjoy meeting. A small closed lean-to has been reserved for storing wood, garden equipment and the lawn tractor. The living areas on the ground floor extend onto a terrace facing southwest. Beautiful garden furniture has been placed here and there, at the foot of the centuries-old oak trees present... in order to better enjoy the panoramic view of the untreated fields, the valley and the sunsets. An orchard, a well, five springs, a large pond decorated with water lilies, a chicken coop and a garden border the house. To date, all the work carried out is still under ten-year warranty and the septic tank is up to standard. In such a context, we really take the time to live and create a life that suits us!
