A Sympathetically Restored 17C Bearnaise House with Uninterrupted Views

Property Description

A sympathetically restored 17C Béarnaise House with large L shaped out-buildings and far reaching views across the surrounding countryside and the Pyrenees mountains.

The entrance to this property is marked by its large wrought iron entrance gates, which open into a large courtyard created by the farmhouse, its barn and the former pigsty. Benefitting from an elevated privileged position, the eye is instantly drawn towards the stunning views of the open countryside and Pyrenees mountains.

During its restoration in 2006, the farmhouse was entirely re-roofed, fully insulated, re-wired and re-plumbed with a new septic tank system. The property also benefits from being economically efficient with its double glazed hardwood windows; its heat exchange pump providing low cost ambient heating and its solar panels providing hot water.

The land totals 5,000m2 and includes a large lawn area to the front of the main house; a vegetable garden; an ornamental pond and a large lawn area to the rear of the barn.

This property would appeal to someone looking for a sympathetically restored property with exceptional views and barns (to either convert into guest accommodation or to serve for a particular project).

Situated 40 minutes north of Pau; 5 minutes from Garlin and 15 minutes from Lembeye. Pau airport 25 minutes; Tarbes / Lourdes 40 minutes; Toulouse airport 2 hours.
