Flexible Farmhouse property with Stunning Views and Income Potential
This restored farmhouse offers flexibility and potential - ideal for income-generating projects or as an intergenerational home.
Situated on the popular Balcon des Pyrénées walking route, the property enjoys a unique 180-degree view of the Pyrenean mountain range and the Garonne Valley. A historic pathway winds down through a natural forest to the medieval cité of Rieux-Volvestre. The surrounding region, Les Volvestres, is an up-and-coming area with excellent modern infrastructure.
The property is currently divided into four separate, independent dwellings, making it highly attractive for investors. Rental income can be generated through both short and long-term lets, and the house is especially popular with pilgrims walking the Via Garonna, part of the Compostela pilgrimage route.
The current owners earn approximately €15,000 per annum from short-term summer holiday lets, and there is scope to increase this through a range of additional uses including courses, retreats, or seminars. The property is often used for wedding parties selecting the nearby Rieux Cathedral and Château de Palays. Both the garden and the house regularly host concerts, with four to five performances per year.
A separate large farm workshop, equipped with three-phase electrics and water, offers further income potential through rental or other uses (conversion would be subject to the necessary permissions).
The surrounding 27 hectares include pristine forest and arable land, currently generating earnings from hay, lucerne or other crops and livestock.
Accommodation Details:
An elegantly decorated first-floor apartment features a hallway, kitchen, living room, large bathroom, and bedroom. It flows into a light-filled salon/dining room with a balcony and spectacular mountain views. A guest bedroom with an en-suite shower room completes this space.
Also on this floor is a self-contained two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and shower room.
On the ground floor, a spacious two-bedroom apartment includes an open-plan kitchen/living/dining area, an office, and a large terrace opening to the garden. This apartment has disabled access via a rear entrance.
Next door, a smaller one-bedroom apartment with kitchen/living space and en-suite shower room also benefits from disabled access.
The Grounds:
The garden is beautifully maintained with an emphasis on regenerative care and biodiversity. A vegetable garden is irrigated via a reliable well and pump. Other features include a fish pond, an orchard, a larger pond with water lilies, a summer kitchen, and a small swimming pool with views of the Pic du Midi.

If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.
Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.
Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.
