This is a remarkable opportunity to acquire three beautifully restored historic properties located in a secluded hamlet nestled among the picturesque hills of the stunning Tarn countryside in South West France.

The main residential property, dating back to the Middle Ages, has undergone a sensitive restoration process using traditional materials to preserve its original features and medieval charm. It has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the breathtaking views and offers 480 square meters of living space, surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens.

The ground floor welcomes you with a spacious entrance hall, a farmhouse-style kitchen, and three generous living areas, one of which leads out to the terrace and gardens. A staircase from the dining area takes you to one wing of the property, where you'll find the main bedroom suite with a dressing room, sitting room, and bathroom. The triple aspect design of this suite allows you to fully appreciate the spectacular views. Across the hallway is an additional bedroom and bathroom.

From the hallway, a second staircase leads to the west wing, where three en-suite bedrooms are located, one of which boasts a west-facing terrace with exterior steps leading down to the courtyard garden. On the ground floor, there is an additional room currently used as a cinema. This room features an adjoining bathroom and doors that open to the outside courtyard garden.

The architecturally designed infinity swimming pool, featuring a beach-style entry, is secluded and perfectly positioned to take in the breathtaking views. Nestled among the lush gardens is a 65-square-meter guest house with a kitchen, living/dining area, an en-suite bedroom, and a terrace.

The third property, located 50 meters away, has its own private gardens and swimming pool and is a unique two-bedroom residence. It showcases a spectacular medieval hall and a 100-square-meter library. This property, known as "the artist's retreat," frequently hosts established artists who come to work, relax, and find inspiration.

Originally a wine merchant's property, there is potential (subject to obtaining the necessary permissions) to convert the ground floor stables and covered terraces into additional living space.

Attached to this property is an independent two-bedroom caretaker's residence with a raised terrace.
