A house, consulting room, apartment, pool and 5 000 m² garden between Toulouse and Montauban, in the Occitanie region.
In the heart of the Tarn-et-Garonne region, just a stone's throw from Montauban and Toulouse, the property is set in a commune bordered by the Tarn and crossed by several streams, in undulating countryside with a mix of farmland, copses and grasslands. The peaceful atmosphere and mild climate offer a privileged, authentic living environment, as do the traditional buildings, which consist of mud brick and terracotta brick houses. All essential services, shops and amenities are nearby. The village of Fronton is 5 minutes away by car, Bressols, on the future Bordeaux/Toulouse TGV train line, is 12 minutes away, Montauban is 15 minutes away and Toulouse is 40 minutes away.
The main house is set in the centre of the wooded garden, which features alcoves of shrubs and flowers. It is a large building divided into three areas: the consulting room, which is currently home to a private practice, the house, which has a floor area of around 300 m², and a separate apartment. Two light-coloured iron doors, mounted on red brick pillars, topped by a natural arch formed by elm trees, open onto a wide, curved, gravelled driveway that first reveals the practice and then the Mediterranean-style house. The lavender-blue shutters, tiled roofs and sand-coloured render are in a soft, almost Provençal palette, that is further lifted by the shifting sky and surrounding countryside. The view stretches out over the surrounding countryside.
The main house It is accessed via a glazed porch with a terracotta tiled floor and a laundry room that provides storage space. On the right, the dining room, then the kitchen, provide a glimpse of the pool and garden through large picture windows. The warm tones of the floor are reminiscent of country houses in the south of France, while the clean lines of the kitchen are resolutely contemporary. The furniture, which is plain yet robust, evokes a simple art of living, where the pleasure of shared meals and long discussions can be imagined. To the right of the kitchen, a corridor leads to a first bathroom, two large bedrooms and a study overlooking the pool, adjoining a workshop for handicrafts and storage. On the left, a space opens up that includes a first living room, the left wall of which, with a series of small recessed shelves, reveals a staircase leading up to a vast bedroom with an exposed, solid wood framework. Made up of an intricate interweaving of carefully assembled beams and rafters, it forms an elegant triangular structure. The outstretched lines of the framework, both powerful and aerial, direct the eye towards the ridge, the meeting point of strength and balance. Back in the first living room, a staircase leads down to a second living area, which opens out under a beamed ceiling. The space, subtly lowered, is arranged around an imposing fireplace clad in old bricks, whose glowing hue contrasts with the wooden floor and warmly tinted floor tiles. The interplay of textures - wood, brick, metal and plants - gives the whole a sense of depth. Transom windows and wide picture windows let in soft light, filtered through the beams and lines of the balustrade. The white, slightly curving staircase breaks up the straight lines of the wall, accentuating the fluidity of the volumes. It leads to a large, light-filled 60 m² sleeping area, where the solid wood beams and white wood panelling blend in harmoniously with the light-coloured floor. This bedroom has a storage area and a private shower room tiled in travertine. Back in the second living room, a corridor on the left leads to two bedrooms with access to the pool, one of which has storage space and a bathroom. The swimming poolThe pool ...
