Property Description
Tucked away at the end of a long quiet lane lies this beautiful late 18th Century Farmhouse, nestled on 1.6Ha of land composed of meadows and oak trees. For those in search of complete tranquility and privacy, this is a must see. The property measures 200m² and consists of 2 buildings connected by a winter garden. This layout makes it ideal for 2 independent homes or as one larger family home.
Upon entering the main house, one finds a large open plan living are of 84.5m², that comprises kitchen, lounge and dining. Large French doors and windows throughout give a light and airy feel to this tastefully rennovated space that combines beautiful period features such as the original stone sink and large country fireplace with the comfort of modern touches such as limestone floor tiles and a spacious kitchen area with island. The ground floor also houses a WC and a utility room. Upstairs, the generous landing would make an ideal office space, and leads, on the right, to a large bathroom with bath, shower and WC and on the left, to a large double room. All floors upstairs are hardwood.
Seamlessly connecting the two properties is a recently appointed winter garden of 23.5m² that could lend itself comfortably to a reading room, dining room or additional lounge.
The second building, entered either via the winter garden or via a seperate entrance, is composed of a large living room, shower, WC and utility room. The same limestone floor tiles as in the first house cover the ground floor and again, the room is light and airy due to the double doors leading to the courtyard garden and a number of windows looking out over the fields and woods. A wooden staircase leads to the first floor, which is composed of two good sized double bedrooms.
The house has been fully rennovated, with structural work finishing in 2006. Work to the property included re-roofing and new plumbing. All windows are double glazed and heating is provided via a heat exchange pump (Samsung reversible air conditioning unit).
The septic tank conforms to current standards. Property tax: 200 €
This property is in a very private location, with the first farm being more than 500m from the house. A stream, located at the edge of the grounds, flows all year round (non-flood zone), making the farmhouse perfect for someone wishing to keep horses. The 1.6Ha of land is composed of just over half a hectare of oaks and one hectare of meadow.
Located near the village of Arzacq-Arraziguet, only 30 minutes from Pau airport and 15 minutes from the historic and active market town of Morlanne that has a fine selection of cafés, restaurants and boutiques. The beaches of the Landaise coast can be reached in 1.5 hours and the ski resorts of Cauterets, Gourette and La Pierre Saint Martin are all within less than 2 hours drive.
