A Stunning C14th Chateau with Exceptional Views of the Pyrenees

Property Description

A stunning 14th century chateau with exceptional views of the Pyrenees, offering over 230m² of living space including a tower wing, outbuildings and separate studio, set in just under 1 hectare of private grounds.

The chateau has a large living area, kitchen, five bedrooms, two bathrooms and a laundry room. There is a independent studio of 55m², as well as an adjoining outbuilding on two levels, and cellar with vaulted ceilings.

Habitable but needing refreshing, central heating, septic tank to replace.The property is in very good general condition in terms of structure, roof, walls, floors etc. It is an attractive building, of stone, 'Toulouse' brick, and oak. There is abundant living space and the property would make a fine family home. It also lends itself to tourist enterprises. The chateau has not been lived in for a while, so there is a budget to plan for certain works, in order to bring it up to modern standards and make the most of the property. These works would include:

• Relining and possibly replacing completely the swimming pool
• Completing the garage area
• New kitchen
• Replacement of the central heating boiler (the system of radiators is there, it is just the boiler that needs replacing)
• New Individual septic tank (the existing one is not to current norms)
• Some work to allow for taste and modern living
• Tidying the land as it has not been looked after for a while, to landscape it in keeping with the quality of the property.

Quality artisans (French and English speaking) exist in the area capable of carrying out this type of work.

The property is located about 15 minutes from shops and restaurants, in a small village, so it is not completely isolated. The views from the chateau and tower are stunning.

This region of France is known for its rolling hills and valleys, oak and chestnut woodland, abundant wildlife, clear clean air, and particularly for its views of the Pyrenees.
