In the heart of Quercy Blanc, near Lauzerte, stands a remarkable village residence, distinguished by a subtle architectural contrast: to the street, a formal façade with the poise of a maison de maître; to the garden, a more intimate composition where stone and greenery meet.
From the moment one enters, the restoration reveals its remarkable sensitivity. Terracotta tiles, timber floors, fireplaces, period joinery, beams and stone walls have been preserved, while the volumes, lighting and contemporary fittings lend the whole a restrained elegance. In one of the reception rooms, a former pointed-arch opening, now sealed, recalls the age of the masonry.
The reception rooms flow naturally towards the kitchen, which opens widely onto the garden. Exposed stone and high-end finishes create a warm, refined setting, while the travertine floor in this room benefits from underfloor heating. The sleeping accommodation comprises five bedrooms, including a ground-floor suite with a sleek shower room featuring twin rainfall showers and a heated shower tray.
Hidden from view, the enclosed garden continues the same refined spirit. Terraces, roses, a majestic lime tree, varied planting and aromatic herbs form part of a contemporary landscape design conceived with the same care as the interiors. Independent outside access, a garage-workshop, utility room, cellar and storage complete the property.
Village shops and services are within walking distance, a rare privilege for a residence of this scale. A turnkey home, remarkable for the quality of its restoration, the coherence of its design and the individuality of its architecture.
