An Immaculately Renovated Bearnaise House Dating 1812 Close to Town

Property Description

An immaculately presented family home, renovated with a contemporary, modern interior and situated within a 15 minute walk to the popular 14th century fortified town of Navarrenx.

Purchased as a ruin, the property has undergone an entire and professional renovation in 2015 from the roof down to the floor tiling, with a strong emphasis on energy efficiency; including a wood pellet furnace central heating system, double glazing and full insulation. The accommodation provides two generous reception rooms, a dining kitchen, utility room and WC on the ground floor with five bedrooms and three bathrooms on the two upper floors. The light, neutral coloured living spaces are entirely adaptable, complimenting either contemporary or period furniture and fittings.

An enormous stone barn, sitting adjacent to the rear of the house, offers the potential for a number of projects. Having also undergone an entire restoration, the barn provides over 200m2 of available space, with water, electricity, a new roof and a concrete floor - ideal for conversion to gîtes. Currently used as a large garage with electronic doors, the space could also serve as a secure workshop.

The property sits on a quiet country lane, off the village road, offering a glimpse of the village centre and church from its garden and bedroom windows. The real advantage of its situation is the proximity to the town centre of Navarrenx, within a 15 minute walk. Celebrated for its 14C ramparts and salmon fishing, Navarrenx was included to the official list of France's most prettiest villages in 2014 and attracts tourists all year round.
