Nestled in the famous vineyards of Gaillac, less than 20 minutes away from the episcopal city of Albi and conveniently accessible from the Albi-Toulouse highway, this characterful house with its reinforced white stone walls, built in the early 15th century, will charm you with its breath-taking views of the Pyrenees and the surrounding vineyards. Lovers of beautiful architecture will adore the three round towers with their arrow slits. Your comfort is ensured by the spaciousness and brightness of the rooms, the high ceilings, and the modern amenities perfectly suited for contemporary living. The living space of 246m2 is composed on the ground floor of a well-equipped kitchen of 30m2, ideal for preparing family meals or entertaining guests. There is a large original open fireplace, with bread oven, and you'll find a wine cellar in one of the towers. The kitchen opens onto a terrace ideally situated for enjoying lunch with a view of the Gaillac vineyards. Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry room. Passing through the entrance tower with a wardrobe and a toilet, you access the 34m2 living room, also featuring an impressive fireplace, and the former tasting room of 33m2, which could easily be converted into a ground-floor bedroom, a small independent studio, or an office. A beautiful stone staircase leads you to the upper floor where you will find, on one side, a master suite, and on the other side, separated for potential guests, two additional bedrooms, each with a decorative fireplace and an ensuite bathroom. All of the bedrooms are oriented towards the south to take full advantage of the famous view. Separated by the enclosed courtyard, facing the main house, the guest house with a surface area of 63m2 could provide additional income through seasonal rentals. Feel free to ask us for an approximate estimation done by Sélection Gîtes. The outbuildings of this property bear witness to its viticultural history: an 8x15m carport, an 8x8m barn, and a two-story viticultural building measuring 8x3.5m and 13x6.5m, which could be used to house a car collection, for a professional project, or be converted into a living space. All of this is set on approximately 1.55 hectares of land with fruit trees, woods, and meadows. The estate is ideally located in a peaceful and picturesque setting, yet only 10 minutes away from shops and 2 minutes from the nearest bakery. Toulouse-Blagnac Airport is less than an hour's drive away. On the technical side, the house has undergone a complete renovation and has been well maintained. It has double glazing throughout, reinforced on the ground floor, and the attic has 40 cm of insulation. The Viessman oil boiler and solar panels provide hot water. The Roman tile roof is in good condition. If you are looking for a characterful property with soul, reflecting the rich history of this region of the Templars and the Cathars, a charming "bastidette" with a human scale where you can accommodate your loved ones or engage in a hospitality business with the flexibility of spacious outbuildings, a visit is a must! Virtual tour available.
