Set in rolling countryside in the Haute-Garonne, not far from the Gers border, La Rouquette is a restored country home offering seclusion and space, inviting you to fully unwind in rural surroundings. As you approach along its private drive, the house appears gently from the landscape, framed by views that stretch out across golden fields and wooded horizons.
Inside, the interiors blend character and comfort, with exposed beams, generous living spaces and thoughtful furnishings. A modern fully equipped kitchen with a central island and wine fridge awaits whilst the traditional living room with UK satellite TV flows into the dining room and out to the garden beyond. Other living spaces across the house provide room for groups to gather or guests to retreat with a book or a glass of wine.
Set in five hectares of private grounds leading to open countryside, La Rouquette is made for outdoor living. The private 14-metre pool catches the sun, surrounded by a terrace dotted with loungers. An outdoor dining area is ideal for long summer lunches, while evenings call for games on the boules court or a glass of Armagnac on the terrace. Table tennis and a tennis court (for leisurely play) offer further diversions, making this an excellent choice for families and friends alike.
Positioned between the charming market towns of Mauvezin and L’Isle-Jourdain, the house offers easy access to authentic Gascon life. Local highlights include the grand Château de Laréole, the medieval bastide of Cologne and the natural pleasures of L'Isle Jourdain, where lakeside walks and golf await. The hilltop Gers town of Mauvezin bustles on market day and comes alive in summer with food festivals and open-air celebrations. Even closer, it’s a leisurely stroll or short drive to the 18th century Château de Drudas with its hotel-restaurant and spa.
Whether gathering with loved ones for warm summer days and evenings under the stars, or setting off to explore this richly layered region, La Rouquette promises a stay of effortless ease in the unspoilt heart of southwest France.
- This is a rural and secluded setting - the nearest neighbour is 500m away. Following country roads (no pavement), you can walk to the local hamlet of Drudas, just over 1.5km away, home Château de Drudas with its restaurant and spa.
