Architect Renovated Enclos Béarnaise with Mountain Views

Description

This charming farmhouse, in the highly desirable 'Enclos Bearnaise' style, enjoys a privileged hillside position with uninterrupted views across rolling countryside to the Pyrenees mountain range beyond. Tucked away in a private location, its pretty stone facade gives way to a deceptively spacious and delightfully comfortable home. Five bedrooms & ample living space make it ideal for those seeking a low cost, turn-key home in this beautiful region.

A pretty entrance hall with authentic Victorian floor tiles leads to the large open plan living space composed of sitting room, dining room, and kitchen. In addition, a good sized utility room, office space, three bedrooms, WC and bathroom can all be found on the ground floor.
A cast iron spiral staircase leades to an impressive open plan mezzanine, currently used as an Architecht office. In addition, a shower and WC on this floor allow for easy conversion into a parental suite should one so wish.
To the other side of the house, the original wooden staircase leads to a further two bedrooms, a WC and shower room.

The property has recently been fully renovated by it's Architecht owners with all work still under guarantee, and is tastefully decorated with a great flow. Full height glass doors lead onto a sunny south facing terrace, flooding the living spaces with light and drawing the gaze toward the spectacular mountain range beyond. A number of eco friendly measures have been taken to make the house low cost and energy efficient, including full double glazing, good insulation and the use of geothermic underfloor heating. The partially enclosed gardens of just over 3000m² inlcude a graveled entrance, terraces to the south, outdoor lighting, a large atelier that is fully insulated and could be easily transformed into a seperate gite, a car port and finally a small workshop for garden tools.
