Description

Accommodation: 180m² on each of 4 floors - including convertible attic and basement with double garage.

Set in the centre of a busy riverside market town, in the precinct of the the cathedral and a small private kindergarten, is this impressive C19th house - the former town residence of a judge - with spacious, light accommodation over 4 floors.
The house was restored to a very high standard in 1973, retaining the imposing period features, particularly the double doors, high ceilings and fireplaces. It has mains water, town gas, mains drainage and ADSL connection. The plumbing, wiring, heating, insulation and roof are in good condition, reducing maintenance to the minimum.
The town, with a population of 6000, is particularly attractive, with its grid of small streets, twice-weekly market, riverside walks, interesting specialist shops, pavement cafés and all day-to-day facilities.
Access is good by road and by plane. Pau airport can be reached in about 40 minutes, Bordeaux is about 75 minutes away and Toulouse can be reached in approximately 2 hours. The Atlantic coast, the ski slopes and the Spanish border are within 90 minutes' drive. The Langon to Pau motorway ( planned for completion in 2009) will make access even easier.
