Marciac, Midi-Pyrénées 32230

A former manor house with a 14th-15th century castle, hidden at the end of a private lane, with no neighbors, set on +3hectares of land surrounded by nature, offering 500m² of living space, outbuildings, and swimming pool a true gem for history buffs. Ideally located for a family, couple, or hospitality project, discover the Gers region and walk in the footsteps of the lords of Pardailhan, Antras, Montesquiou, La Valette, Blaise de Montluc... and write your own story! The solid, human-scale main house features an 80m² living room, kitchen, seven bedrooms (two on the ground floor), sitting rooms, five bathrooms/shower rooms, laundry rooms, and anterooms in the former pepperpot huts. The original features are preserved and highlighted: hollowed-out half-timbering, terracotta tiles, French-style ceilings, stone and marble fireplaces, overmantel mirrors, watchtowers, latrines, Genoese-style eaves, interior wooden shutters, vegetable garden, sandstone, former moat... The imposing round tower underscores the site's original medieval past and conceals the stone spiral staircase that connects the floors. The French Revolution destroyed the coat of arms on the arch of the entrance door. The pursuit of authenticity does not preclude modern comforts: fiber optic sanitation, satellite internet, Lacanche range cooker... The approximately 3.5-hectare grounds are partially wooded, contributing to this sense of seclusion the surrounding nature provides space, isolation, and complete privacy. The swimming pool is heated and secure, and its pool house is located in a former outbuilding. This historic site is discreet finding it is a challenge. Living in Gascony means living in the Gers, where cultures and traditions naturally intertwine. A history marked by warfare, a vibrant present: Le Figaro has just featured the 'Jazz in Marciac' festival... the countryside coming to the rescue of culture... Shops, doctors, cinema, and community organizations are all just a stone's throw away. Unpack your bags! Tarbes-Lourdes airport and TGV station 40 minutes away, Toulouse 1 hour 30 minutes away.
