Agen, Aquitaine 47000

In Lot-et-Garonne, at the gates of Agen, a renovated 18th-century hunting lodge, its outbuildings and its swimming pool, on 1.8 hectares of land. Access to the property is from a broad residential avenue, extended by a discreet country path shaded by tall trees. The first outbuildings are set to one side of the driveway, at the end of which the lodge sits on a gravel terrace. A cedar more than a century old rises at the center of a grassy esplanade. On the other side of the dwelling, a second set of outbuildings includes notably a guest house and a garage. Between these two buildings, a small gate ensures separation from the pool area, shielded from view by a hedge. The old 18th-century hunting lodge, redesigned in the 19th century, and its outbuildings are built in a wooded park planted with ancient trees. Beyond, wide meadows where deer graze peacefully offer an endless perspective. Only the murmur of a cascade hints that the Garonne flows below and borders the property.
