Maison Vintage | 5-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Condom

Condom sits at the heart of one of France’s most underrated wine regions, and Maison Vintage—an 18th-century town house transformed into a sophisticated holiday retreat—offers the kind of authentic Gascon experience that makes generational travel memories. Twelve guests spread across five bedrooms and five bathrooms in a meticulously restored mansion dating to the 1760s, where original oak floorboards meet contemporary comfort and vintage French antiques share wall space with North African art.

Inside Maison Vintage

Maison Vintage sleeps 12 guests across 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, distributed thoughtfully across four floors connected by a striking stone staircase. Ground level welcomes you into a 26m² salon featuring a grand piano, plush seating, and a projector system with 4K capability—the kind of room where conversations happen naturally. The library anchors the opposite corner with a television and discreet bar setup. A games room equipped with table football and a fireplace opens onto a covered terrace and summer kitchen; the integrated wine fridge here rarely stays full for long. Utility facilities including washing machine and fridge-freezer occupy practical space nearby.

The first floor hosts a professional-standard kitchen commanding 340m² across the entire property. Two dishwashers handle the aftermath of ambitious dinners; three electric ovens and gas hobs suggest serious cooking intentions. A Nespresso machine, kettle, toaster, and dual fridges cater to morning routines, while the walk-in pantry rewards exploration. The kitchen opens directly onto an upper terrace via glazed doors. Adjacent sits a dining room with seating for twelve, plus a dedicated guest bathroom with shower, sink and WC. The first-floor bedroom measures 30m² with a 160cm queen-size bed, open-plan bathroom featuring a roll-top bath, sink and WC.

Second floor sleeping arrangements include a 30m² bedroom with a vintage French 150cm double bed and roll-top bath in its open-plan ensuite; a separate 24m² bedroom with 160cm queen-size bed; and a 40m² two-bedroom suite comprising a bedroom with 140cm French bed, seating area, en-suite shower room, plus a second bedroom with single bed (90cm).

The top floor commands the highest vantage point: a 70m² suite with air-conditioning, rooftop views toward the Saint-Michel church spire, and countryside vistas beyond. This top-floor retreat contains two bedrooms—one with a single bed (90cm) and seating nook, the other with a 160cm queen-size bed—plus a bathroom with roll-top bath, sink and WC. Central heating throughout, ceiling fans in bedrooms, and air-conditioning on the top floor ensure year-round comfort. Netflix and English television channels, Bluetooth speaker connectivity, hairdryers, and bathrobes furnish each sleeping space. A washing machine and dryer handle laundry without fuss.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The private courtyard functions as an urban retreat—a fountain of calm within steps of Condom’s bustling medieval centre. An above-ground plunge pool measuring 3.5 metres by 2 metres with 0.8-metre depth operates seasonally from May through September, equipped with a safety alarm. Sun-warmed stone surrounds the pool; the covered terrace adjacent hosts a summer kitchen with Plancha grill, refrigeration, and sink—outdoor cooking happens here with genuine ease. A second upper terrace (accessed via courtyard stairs or directly from the kitchen) provides additional entertaining space with canopy shade, sun loungers, and furniture for twelve. This elevated spot catches afternoon light beautifully and becomes the preferred aperitif location as the day winds down.

Location: Condom and the Surrounding Area

Condom anchors the Gers département in Midi-Pyrenees, positioned along the Petite Baïse river’s banks. Step outside Maison Vintage’s front entrance and you inhabit a living medieval town—not a museum reconstruction, but a functioning market town where locals queue at the boulangerie and restaurants fill with diners seeking regional specialities. The Cathédrale Saint-Pierre de Condom stands merely 300 metres away, its architectural grandeur accessible via a pleasant walk through lanes lined with cafés and wine bars specialising in locally distilled Armagnac. The four-musketeers statue nearby has become an Instagram fixture, though the quieter cathedral courtyard rewards those who arrive early.

Markets operate twice weekly near the cathedral, selling foie gras, magret de canard, chèvre from local producers, garlic, melons, and kiwi fruit in season. Explore our villas in Gascony for alternative bases, though Condom’s gastronomic reputation—with multiple Michelin-recognized restaurants within walking distance—rarely disappoints. Canoeing and kayaking excursions launch from Beaucaire, approximately 15km south, where the Baïse widens and slows for water-based exploration.

Within 10-20 minutes’ drive, the countryside reveals fortified bastide villages: Larressingle with its intact ramparts, Fourcès arranged in circular fashion, and Montréal commanding hilltop views. Lectoure (23km) and Fleurance (32km) function as larger market towns; Auch (43km), historic capital of Gascony, houses the Tour d’Armagnac and soaring Cathédrale Saint-Marie. Summer night markets (marchés nocturnes) animate Gascon villages with live music and regional food stalls. Sunflower fields peak in July; vineyards transition through seasons; cycling routes trace quiet lanes between villages. For destination inspiration, read our Midi-Pyrenees travel guide for comprehensive activity planning. Jazz enthusiasts note Marciac’s Jazz Festival (approximately one hour away) typically runs late July through August, with performances year-round.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended family gatherings find natural rhythm here—three generations fit comfortably across five bedrooms with sufficient bathrooms to prevent morning bottlenecks. Travelling friends seeking shared exploration discover communal spaces large enough for varied interests: some lingering over kitchen projects, others relaxing on terraces. Professional groups requiring meeting space utilise the salon with its projector setup for daytime work, then transition to entertaining as evening arrives. Parents prioritise the riverside park (walking distance south) and summer pool for children’s activities, plus babysitting availability. Couples seeking space within proximity choose individual suites on different floors while maintaining shared entertaining areas.
