Elegant bourgeois house with Belle Époque charm

It was in 1895, during the booming period of spinning mills fueled by the development of the railway, that this bourgeois house was built in this dynamic town in the Pays de Cocagne region, between Castres and Toulouse.

Its architecture reflects the typical blend of the Toulouse region and the Tarn, with its distinctive silhouette, brickwork window and door surrounds, and wrought-iron canopy. It was designed to serve both as a bourgeois residence built on a landscaped garden of just over 2,000 square meters and as a working headquarters, with its workshop and large carriage entrance for storing and receiving yarn.

From the moment you enter, the historical character is evident: the vestibule, adorned with original cement tiles, leads to the other rooms, the house thus offering nearly 300 square meters of living space. The living room opens onto a dining room where the monumental fireplace, exposed beams, and high ceilings evoke over a century of refined living, with large windows overlooking the southwest-facing terrace. The spacious, fully independent kitchen, complete with a pantry, also opens onto the terrace, perfect for enjoying sunny days.

The upper floors, half and first, accessible via a grand staircase with a wrought-iron railing, offer five generously sized bedrooms, including three master suites, ideal for family living or a bed and breakfast project.

A detached carport for two cars and a garage with a high carriage entrance complete the property. Finally, attached perpendicularly to the main building, the former spinning mill workshop, measuring 60 square meters, with a kitchenette and bathroom, could be renovated to meet the modern requirements of various projects, such as a gîte, independent living space, or professional activity.

In summary, this property is just waiting for a new lease of life to restore its former glory, creating a seamless blend of old-world charm and modern comforts.
