Gascon Farmhouse with Pool and Breathtaking Views over the Gers
Delightful 16th century restored farmhouse with 210 m² of living space.Located around only 5 minutes away from 3 of Frances officially listed prettiest villages - Fources, Montreal and Larrresingle. Please check owner's website for video of property including a shot of Fources. The link can be found under the contact details, bottom right of the advert page.
Completely secluded at the end of its own drive Le Petit Rouchino takes its name from the French vernacular for "little nightingale". The whole area is a paradise for gourmets, whether it be foie gras, confit de canard or the wealth of local produce available at local markets. The property itself is surrounded by vineyards and many up and coming producers of Cotes de Gascogne and of course the other drink for which this part of the Gers is famous for worldwide-Armagnac.
Unfortunately the external pictures of the property do not do justice to the views and innate charm of the property. Please take a few moments to check out the video on the owner's website, to truly appreciate this lovely property.
