About this place

Set against the rolling landscape of the Lot department, this charming estate in Gorses presents a unique opportunity for those seeking both traditional character and expansion potential. Built in 1907, the main house features a carefully arranged layout spread across three levels, while classic stone outbuildings further enhance its rural charm.

The main residence boasts a light-filled open-plan living and dining area on the first floor, ideal for family gatherings. A cozy lounge complements the space, alongside an efficient kitchen equipped with gas and electric cooking facilities. Two comfortable bedrooms are found on this level, accompanied by a convenient WC.

Ascending to the second floor, a thoughtful layout ensures easy accessibility through two stairways. This floor includes one standard bedroom, another with a charming low ceiling, and significant unconverted space ripe for creating a grand master suite or artist studio. The main bathroom and an additional WC complete this level, adding functionality to the home.

The estate's exterior includes a substantial two-level barn and a historic bread oven, providing immense potential for conversion into guest accommodation or workshop space. Surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and a massive paddock, the property allows for equestrian activities, hobby farming, or extensive landscaping. Fully serviced by mains electricity and local piped water, the estate is also equipped with an independent septic tank, ensuring convenience for its owners.

Buying property in France

Full guide →

France places no restrictions on foreign property ownership. The notaire (a public official, not a lawyer for either side) handles the conveyance and is paid by the buyer. A French bank account is strongly recommended for completion funds and ongoing charges.

  1. 1

    Make an offer

    Offers are usually verbal or via the estate agent (agent immobilier). Once accepted, the agent drafts the offer letter.

  2. 2

    Sign the compromis de vente

    Preliminary contract setting price, conditions, and a 5–10% deposit held in escrow. Buyer has a 10-day statutory cooling-off period after signing.

  3. 3

    Engage a notaire

    Buyer and seller can share one notaire or use separate ones at no extra cost — fees are fixed by law and split.

  4. 4

    Searches & conditions

    Notaire runs title, planning, and mortgage searches; mortgage conditions (clause suspensive) typically allow 45 days to secure financing.

  5. 5

    Final funds & pre-completion

    Transfer balance plus all notaire fees to the notaire's account a few days before signing.

  6. 6

    Sign the acte de vente

    Final deed signed at the notaire's office (in person or by power of attorney). Keys handed over.

  7. 7

    Registration

    Notaire registers the sale at the Service de la Publicité Foncière and sends the buyer a certified copy (attestation) within weeks; the full deed follows in 2–6 months.

No residency requirement to buy. Non-resident mortgages available from French banks, typically 70–80% LTV with stricter affordability checks. France abolished taxe d'habitation on primary residences (2023) but it still applies to second homes — and many communes now apply a surcharge of up to 60% on second homes in high-demand zones.

General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
