A listed medieval castle on the outskirts of a Lauragais village, surrounded by 12 hectares of woods and meadows. The impressive fortified building is surrounded by pastures and groves of trees, as well as landscaped parklands created at the end of the 19th century. A large driveway separates the estate from a local road, with outbuildings - a shed, workshop and caretaker's lodging - just a few metres away. To the west of the castle, there remain the converted servants quarters and working buildings, as well as a 17th century dovecote built on piers, situated on the southern slope of the plateau. Both stylistically and structurally, the castle, which should be described as a 'feudal fortified mansion', appears to date from the reign of Charles VIII or Louis XII, although it was built in 1539. It consists of an elongated rectangular main building with two parallel sets of rooms, more than 27m long and 18m wide. Each corner of the main building features round towers with an external diameter of around 7.5 m, enough to cover the facades. They have arrowslits on each level, facing the entrance door and the southern curtain wall. The roof of the central section is clad with flat tiles featuring square or rounded ends. Some of the tiles are fixed with nails. The roofs of the two front towers are clad exclusively with rounded tiles. The roof of the south-west tower has retained its sealed monk-and-nun tile ribs, while the south-east tower, whose timberwork and roof were restored in the early 20th century, now features a conical pepperpot roof. The walls, with their regularly dressed calcareous sandstone, have an average thickness of almost 1.5 metres. The castle was listed as a historic monument in 1972, with heritage protection afforded to its facades and its high hip roof, crowning an impressive loft.

A manor house with its three gîtes and other outbuildings, set in 8 hectares of grounds with a lake, in the Couserans region of Ariège. Hidden by trees more than three hundred years old, the property gradually emerges at the end of a gravel driveway bordered by low stone walls leading from the west to the centre of the estate. Leaving behind the lush foliage, a group of south-facing buildings comes into view. They comprise a manor house in the centre, dating from 1772, two outbuildings to the west - a garage and a small building housing a reception room - and two former farmhouses that have been renovated and converted into gîtes (guest houses) to the east. The monk-and-nun roof tiles unify the complex, while the varying heights of the elevations, sometimes rendered in white and sometimes of exposed stone, create a hierarchy between the different buildings. The manor house is the tallest, rising to three storeys and flanked by a round tower with a cornice of shortened tiles. Its facades have numerous tall windows with dressed stone surrounds, protected by wooden shutters and metal guardrails with floral scrolls. In front of the manor house, there is a semi-circular gravel esplanade with a central rose bed of the same shape, bisected by a central passageway linking a small two-level Baroque-style fountain, topped by a Buddha, to the main entrance door of the residence. The gîtes and other outbuildings are located on either side of the gravel driveway and the manor house, separated from the latter by a U-shaped paved courtyard to the east. Restoration work in these buildings has showcased the exposed stone walls, and the roofs have been completely redone. Certain parts of the estate have also been modernised to provide year-round facilities for yoga retreats. Two levelled expanses face each other: a vast parking area bordered by low stone walls, which runs in front of the buildings to the right of the driveway, and, at the eastern end, a relaxing terrace partly protected by a solid wood pergola with views over the surrounding area. The property is surrounded by well-kept parklands that slope gently to the south, blending seamlessly into the Ariège Pyrenees Regional Nature Park.

A listed estate steeped in history including a chateau, outbuildings and 27 hectares of grounds with a romantic lake and a swimming pool in the Figeac region. The estate, which overlooks the entire Dournelle Valley, sits at the top of the hill above the village of Fons-en-Quercy, whose defence and prosperity it safeguarded for more than six centuries. It comprises a chateau of approx. 445 m² with two round towers of different diameters and periods, a residential farmhouse of approx. 120 m², an old farm building of approx. 160 m², and an impressive stable barn of approx. 828 m², formerly a stud, renowned throughout the region. The entire property, with a total floor area of almost 1,500 m² including the chateau, is listed. A square dovecote spanning around 52 m² near the chateau, now used as a garage, and a round dovecote of around 29 m² bear witness to the importance of the former stronghold. The architectural diversity of this estate are a proud testimony to its tormented history, blending all periods from the 16th to the end of the 19th century. The finest building materials available in the region were used: stone from the Lot quarries, centuries-old oak trees for the roof timbers and parquet flooring, and terracotta roof tiles in a variety of shapes depending on the nature of the buildings to be covered. The grounds, covering an area of 27 hectares, are totally private and boast a wealth of species and ancient trees. A narrow local road bisects the park. In addition to its vast water lily pond, nymphaeum, rock pool and grottoes, it includes a series of three “lavoirs” (laundry basins) fed by a natural warm spring. The hydraulic system of the grounds is listed as a historic monument.

The Château de Fourcès sits at the entrance of one of the most beautiful villages of France, on the banks of the river Auzoue. Fourcès (meaning force in Gascon) is a unique and picturesque circular village renowned for its famous annual flower market on the last weekend of April, its monthly brocantes, restaurants and eclectic shops. The village, with a mere 300 inhabitants, is a local treasure, its beauty preserved over the centuries and very much a living and breathing Gascon village, where it is possible to source anything from an ancient scented rose, a bottle of Armagnac, a unique piece of furniture; or to enjoy a fabulous meal with local produce on the terrace of the local Auberge. A village so often visited for its beauty, and gentle recreational pleasures, the Château is one of the most remarkable landmarks of Gascony, and one which here at BLISS we are proud to present to anyone in search of a life-changing property, and one which provides the possibility of so many possible business ventures linked to this historical building, in an area of peaceful beauty and tranquillity. The chateau was demolished in 1453 in the Hundred Year War. At the time the local villagers re-employed many of the stones to build their own properties around the circular market place, with is hundred year old trees. The central market place is dotted with plane trees which provide dappled shade in the summer months. This is a place in which people come together; bursting with flowers from horticulturists all over SW France at the end of April, the brocanteurs, eating an impromptu lunch at rickety tables and sharing a glass of local Gascon red at the monthly antique fares. If ever you wanted to feel you are in the heart of France, and time has stopped, cross the bridge over the river to the sleepy town of Fourcès. Building of the Château as we know it today commenced at the end of the reign of Louis Xll and was completed under the reign of François Ier. The building is clearly Renaissance in style with lovely large windows, a glorious pale stone façade, with two wings and a round tower and a square tower. In the square tower we find the beautiful and original staircase. Since 1996, successive owners of the Château have welcomed tourists into the Château, with the current owners having carried out an impressive redesign of the interior of the Château with further development of additional appartements on the upper floors, and the creation of a popular bar/tapas area on the ground floor for guests, known as Chez Boubou, with two bedrooms above the bar/restaurant in the adjacent stone cottage that sits at the entrance of the Château. The current owners also oversaw the complete restoration of the roof in 2020.

A 19th century chateau, its greenhouse and wooded grounds 30 minutes from Toulouse city centre, in the heart of the countryside. The property is accessed via an unpaved track lined with centuries-old trees leading to an iron gate. Flanked by two Roman columns adorned with capitals featuring antique terracotta vases, the gates open onto a driveway lined with four yew trees leading to the chateau. This first section of the grounds, enclosed by a low wall topped with railings, provides parking for several vehicles. At the heart of the property, a central corps de logis and two wings frame a rectangular main courtyard facing due west, paved with Garonne pebbles surrounding a central earth platform where the vegetation has taken its rightful place. The original building, a farm, was included in the first regional land register, drawn up in 1825. The grounds feature a row of three 300-year-old cedar trees, suggesting that the original owners were Protestants. Given monumental form between 1870 and 1875 with the addition of a second storey and neo-Classical and neo-Gothic decorative elements, the main building now has four storeys. Flanked by four watchtowers, its symmetrical facades are punctuated by alternating arched and straight windows, with brick surrounds and wooden shutters painted light blue. Two stringcourses, also of red brick, mark the separations between the three levels. The semi-circular French windows facing the main courtyard or the parklands have balconies with wrought iron guardrails. The four-pitched roof is of slate. Each of the two wings of the chateau is two storeys high and topped by a gable roof of monk-and-nun tiles. The western end of the roof features a pediment crowned with terracotta pine cones. The north wing contains a gallery, a reception room and a mezzanine that opens onto a long balcony; the south wing comprises a vast conservatory and a gîte with a separate terrace. Two side extensions with monk-and-nun tile roofs form the link between the corps de logis and the wings. All the walls are rendered in light yellow, complementing the colours of the vines that grow along the facades and that of the flowering bushes in the main courtyard. Finally, the chateau is surrounded by 8,000 m² of grounds, including an outbuilding with a large swimming pool.

A 19th century chateau and its outbuildings in 4 ha of parklands, 40 km to the south of Toulouse. The “Domaine d’Ampouillac”, composed of land and houses, has been known by this name since the 10th century. Initially annexed to the Cuxa Monastery, in 1209 the estate and the priory became part of the Boulbonne Abbey, created in 1129 near to Mazères. The monks of this Cistercian Abbey farmed Ampouillac’s land and that of some adjoining estates, such as Baissac, Artenac and several others. The remoteness of Mazères meant that the monks had to construct buildings for their accommodation on the land they were farming. Said buildings, known as Cistercian barns, were to remain the property of Boulbonne Abbey until the time of the French Revolution when, as a result of the revolutionary riots, Ampouillac was partially destroyed. All that remained was the basement of the “barn” and the current ground floor as is proved by the architecture and the thickness of the walls. In 1791, Ampouillac, was declared National Property and sold. The buyer reconstructed it from the ruins as is explained on the plaque on the stairway. It was also at this time that the first-floor lounge was created and decorated. Ampouillac was to remain in the hands of the same family until 1879 when it was sold to an industrialist from Toulouse. The building currently spans three levels over cellars, the latter being the old, 11th century, Cistercian barns.

A 15th-century chateau with three gîtes and 6 5 hectares of grounds, nestled in France’s Lauragais province, 45 minutes south-east of Toulouse. From a country lane, the property’s main gate leads into a gravel court. The chateau and the three gîtes stand at the edge of this court. The property is made up grounds that cover 6.5 hectares and include woods and meadows. The gîtes lie at a right angle to the chateau. This layout structures the property, directs the flow of vehicles and pedestrians and separates the holiday homes from the grand edifice. The facades face different directions and gaze at the horizon. The back of the gîtes looks at a side wall of the chateau, with which the gîtes edge a court lined with trees and shrubby hedges. There are two swimming pools: one behind the chateau and the other one next to the gîtes. The property dates back to 1492. Under an order from King Louis XIV of France, the chateau was extended and the Countess of Toulouse then lived in it. The edifice was redesigned in the centuries that followed, but its main section with three floors has kept its medieval appearance with a round tower flanking it and limestone masonry forming its old walls. Its facade is punctuated with windows in perfect symmetry. These windows are arched at the top. Their surrounds are made of dressed stone, their frames are made of wood and their shutters and pane bars are painted white. The rear face is different. The windows are similarly arched but laid out around several axes of symmetry and extensions adjoin the chateau on this side too: two orangeries that were built at each end of the main section. These two orangeries are identical to each other. Both are single-storey structures bathed in light from panels of glazing made up of small panes. Today, they house a wide range of plants. The outbuildings are made up of four structures built on a slope in a long row with different roof heights. Windows punctuate the walls asymmetrically. These windows are of varying shapes, sizes and materials. The roofs of the property’s different buildings are covered in monk-and-nun tiling and have either one or two slopes. Brick chimney stacks dot these roofs.

A fifteenth-century chateau and Benedictine abbey with splendid grounds in one of France’s most beautiful villages, in the country’s Ariège department. You reach the property via a narrow lane that runs along the chateau. The edifice forms a U shape, adjoined to an abbey. It enjoys a commanding view over the River Hers valley. The property is a haven of peace in the heart of a region with an eventful past: Occitania. The chateau stands like a fortress. It is the fruit of a long monastic story: a combination of medieval history and Benedictine architecture. The existence of this Benedictine abbey was first mentioned in a deed that dates back to 923. Charlemagne, returning from a campaign against the Saracens, chose the spot in 778 to build a monastery and a church. A natural dam that held back Puivert lake nearby burst on 18 June 1279, destroying all the villages in the valley. The monastery was rebuilt between 1280 and 1316 to look like France’s royal fortresses with arrow slits. Then its monks abandoned the edifice during the Hundred Years’ War. Later, in 1502, a phase of reconstruction began, resulting in the buildings that we can see here today. This was an initiative from Philippe de Lévis, the Bishop of Mirepoix, who gave the fortified priory a majestic, serious look. He created apartments in the rectangular tower that the chateau still features today. From this period onwards, especially during the edifice’s second phase of restoration in the eighteenth century, the chateau never stopped being embellished with rich decorative features that expressed the abbey’s powerful influence. The edifice is made up of three sections crowned with gabled and hipped roofs that are covered in monk-and-nun tiling and edged with triple-row génoise cornices. The first section is long and thick. It has three floors and an end tower that is taller than the rest of it. Many evenly placed arched or right-angled windows punctuate its walls. The two other sections adjoin the church. They form a cloister around a garden courtyard. The west section has three floors and the east section has two floors. The latter was recently converted into a gîte. In front of the edifice’s large south-facing facade, a terraced garden leads down to parkland that includes an age-old magnolia in its range of trees.
