Tarn: Castres, magnificent Art Deco-style architect-designed villa with garage, veranda and wooded grounds.

If you are looking for an exceptional property in the heart of the city, then look no further. This is where you can settle down in this high-end residence, a property full of character and a true paradise!
Built in the 1950s and designed by a famous architect whose distinctive and refined style is easily recognisable, this bourgeois house is sure to charm you with its 169 m² of living space plus veranda, and is well hidden within a fully enclosed landscaped park of 910 m².

Step through the entrance gate and you will find yourself in front of a truly unique villa. Elegant and imposing, its Art Deco style is absolutely remarkable! A pure delight for the eyes with its bow windows and large openings, balconies, terraces, stone-based verandas and Genoese windows, all enhanced by beautiful trees, paths and flower beds – a real enchantment!
Push open the ornate wrought iron front door and you will discover a spacious and bright entrance hall, where the Art Deco style is very much in evidence and enhanced.
This entrance hall, with its cloakroom and WC, leads to a magnificent 33m² living room. This room is truly dazzling with its bow window, its typical chequerboard floor, its fireplace and its lighting – it has incredible charm!
Next, we discover the equally elegant kitchen, which, like everywhere else, has retained its style while adopting the necessary modernity that makes each room as functional as one could wish for. This room captures the incredible light offered by the veranda that extends it, an incredible living space with its own fireplace, an ode to light! But that's not all! This veranda also opens onto a terrace with an awning if needed, providing complete shelter and surrounded by rose bushes and flower beds, inviting you to daydream!
On this ground floor, a 16m² office also opens onto this terrace – you wouldn't believe how nice it is! This office was formerly a bedroom, which is good to know depending on your plans and needs.
A 40m² garage adjoins the kitchen. It is accessed from the street side and has an ideal exit on the garden side.
Now on to the first floor. After strolling up the staircase, which deserves a pause to admire the entrance hall, we discover a beautiful landing that is just as bright and refined with its parquet flooring. It leads to four bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room and WC.

Here we find the same configuration in terms of openings, bow windows, large windows, and an incredible room just above the entrance, a bathroom with a balcony and wrought iron door, a timeless room with undeniable charm! A separate WC completes this level.
Outside, it is pure enchantment, with paths, borders and flower beds, and space for a pond. It is magnificent.
In addition, a spiral staircase leads to a new panoramic terrace on the garage roof with a storage room at the back!

On the more technical side, the house is equipped with double-glazed tilt-and-turn windows, air-to-water heat pump heating with room-by-room programmers, recent insulation, etc.

You will easily understand that this is a rare and precious property. A haven of greenery in the heart of Castres... it's rare and sought-after! We look forward to showing it to you!
