Where light meets stillness:

A family home in the Gers

Overview

Set in the heart of a valley, not far from Castera-Verduzan and its amenities including a small supermarket, butcher, bakery, café, newsagent, pharmacy, antique dealers, restaurants—even a casino—and a charming Sunday market.

Peaceful and private, the property feels like a hidden retreat. The garden is idyllic, with sweeping views over the gently rolling Gers countryside. A light breeze, birdsong—nothing but the sounds of nature.

First impressions

An electric gate opens onto the side of the house, hinting at its scale without revealing it entirely. Parking is discreetly set on a gravel area behind a hedge, keeping cars out of sight. In wet weather, a large garage provides sheltered access—practical for unloading shopping.

The façade is classically Gersoise: stone walls, balanced symmetry, and a solid wooden front door. It has presence without ostentation.

The house feels timeless—standing calmly for centuries, and likely for many more. It has been thoughtfully extended over time, in an era when buildings were made to be solid, simple, and beautiful.

Inside the property

For everyday use, entry is informal and practical: a spacious room serves as a transition space for coats, shoes, and shopping, linking the outdoors and garage to the kitchen.

Guests, however, enter through the main door. They arrive directly into a long dining room, ideal for large gatherings around the fireplace. To the left is an open-plan kitchen.

A few steps down lead to a large, double-aspect living room: one side fully glazed to capture sunlight and garden views, the other designed for cosy winter evenings by the fire.

From here, a private wing offers flexible accommodation: a kitchen, a generously sized bedroom (large enough for a workspace), a shower room, and separate WC. This area works perfectly for visiting family, an independent teenager, or even as a small guest cottage, with its own external access.

Another door reveals a staircase with a striking wrought-iron banister. Upstairs are three bedrooms: one with its own en-suite bathroom and WC, and two others sharing a shower room and separate WC—ideal for hosting.

Back downstairs, another staircase leads to an independent upper level featuring a very large bedroom, a spacious dressing room, separate WC, and a bathroom with both a large bathtub and a walk-in shower—an elegant master suite.

Across the landing, a generous additional room is currently used as an office but could serve many purposes.

And there’s more. Behind the kitchen, you’ll find a laundry room, additional WC, and a bright secondary entrance. Upstairs in this section, a contemporary staircase leads to a large mezzanine—perfect as a music room, artist’s studio, or workspace.

In short, this is a substantial home with remarkable flexibility. It adapts to your needs rather than dictating them.
Let’s step outside.

An idyllic garden

A distinctive and inviting swimming pool features wide, gently sloping steps leading into the water, alongside a spacious terrace ideal for following the sun throughout the day.

The grounds are framed by beautiful mature trees: elegant cypresses, fruit trees, lush hedges, and century-old specimens. Beyond, a meadow stretches out, blending seamlessly into the surrounding landscape.

Open views extend across fields and rolling hills in this seemingly endless Gers countryside.
