4-bed Detached in Condom

Two properties that originally date back to the Middle Ages with a pretty river running by - one a water mill (now a 2-bed home), the other a two-bedroom guest cottage, swimming pool and over 17 acres of land. With the original millstones still in place, mature parkland, a pond and a small river, this is a distinctive country property, a fantastic retreat to enjoy peace, quiet and nature.

The main house has a comfortable cottage feel, with a spacious open-plan living area with wood-burning stove that opens onto to a covered terrace. The detached guest cottage is ready to welcome guests straight away and has its own kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom.

Given the age of the original buildings, achieving a C-rated energy efficiency score is quite an achievement. There is reversible air conditioning and a reversible heat pump as well as a wood-burning stove in the sitting room of the main house and electric radiators in the guest cottage. Windows are double glazed throughout.

The enclosed swimming pool sits opposite the two houses, while the extensive 7 hectare grounds are fantastic for wandering off to enjoy all the local wildlife that is particularly abundant due to the river that runs through the grounds. Part of the land is arable so it’s a great plot for a small holding.

There is a total 195m2 habitable space spread across the two houses. Here’s the layout:

Outside

The property extends to 70,169m² (over 7 hectares / 17.3 acres) with mature trees, parkland, a pond, arable land and a small river. The 9 x 4m swimming pool is enclosed and accessible from both houses.

The setting offers plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors, while the separate cottage provides independent accommodation for guests or family. The land may also suit those looking for space for gardening or small-scale agricultural use.

Location

The property is deep in the Gascony countryside, yet only around 6km from Condom, a lively town in the Gers with shops, restaurants and everyday services. The surrounding countryside is typical of the Gascony region, with rolling farmland with no shortage of villages and market towns to explore.
