Reasons to Buy this French House - This House HAS NOW BEEN SOLD SUBJECT TO CONTRACT

Need to Sell your South West France Property Fast? - This WEBSITE is for SALE. I SOLD my HOUSE direct to British buyers via this site.

This wonderful French country house is NOW SOLD, but why should you buy it? Could it be:

The Great airport connections - within a hour of two international airports (Toulouse airport and Carcassonne airport) - masses of flights to key business and holiday destinations - the UK is particularly well served. You will not be held to ransom by a single airline! Perpignon, Montpellier and Girona airport are all within reach too.

The Beaches - the long sandy beaches of the Med' are an hour and a half away. It's easy to go and flop on the beach for a day in the sun

The Skiing - ski resorts are also 90 minutes away. A great fun winters day trip

The Local Towns and Cities - Toulouse the regional capital is a beautiful thriving European city (art, aerospace and superb designer shopping!), Carcassonne is a World Heritage site, Castres and Revel provide everything for day-to-day living...even Barcelona is only 3 hours drive away...tapas for lunch?

The Weather - 2,000 hours of sunshine per year, long warm summers and alfresco dining

The Countryside - Described as "Tuscany meets the cotswolds", the local Lauragais countryside is beautiful - filled with sunflowers throughout the summer. Rolling hills criss-crossed with footpaths and cycle tracks. Rivers and lakes for fishing, canoeing, sailing and swimming - all very close by

The Food and Wine - World class restaurants on your doorstep, great value eateries in every local town and Revel market which is jaw-droppingly and deliciously inspirational! Wine tastings at local chateaux and wines for sale from under a euro a bottle!

The House - An Old character property with: New Roof, New Central heating, New Kitchen, New Bathroom, High speed internet, 3 bedrooms, huge fifty square metre living room, two lavatories, another guest shower room, beams, waterwheel and stonework, tastefully renovated and decorated

The Garden - sunny terraces, easy to manage, off road parking, brick-built storage, half an acre (1800 sq meters)

The River - flood proof, drought proof, top category wild brown trout fishing right in your garden (What would that cost in the UK?)

The Locals - this area and its people have been voted the "friendliest in France"

The Investment Potential - a perfect holiday home for you or for guests - local gite owners easily book up over 20 weeks a year, providing a great rental return. With more low-cost flights discussed for the local area and a new autoroute 10 miles away connecting Castres and Toulouse, this corner of France is set to boom still more.

The Great Value - Due to a lack of "international" estate agents in the region the house prices here represent phenomenal value for money. Half an hour (45 minutes North) in any direction from here and the prices skyrocket. The region is slowly being discovered by foreigners - so buy now before one opens an estate agency!
