Built in 1765, this hilltop village house, with classic proportions, incorporates what was originally a chapel. There are two separate entrances to the property, which would allow the new owners to create an independent apartment of about 70m2 in part of the chapel, if they wished. The outside space includes a lovely terrace, workshop & garage.

The house is situated on the outskirts of a lovely hilltop village. It's a short drive / enjoyable bike ride of about 8km to the local Epicerie, and 10km from Mirande, an ancient fortified town dating back about 800 years. Situated in south-west France, with half-timbered houses and ancient streets. It has a lively market, modern shops, good local services and a golf course. Foodies will be enticed by the excellent restaurants, the duck products and last, but most definitely not least, the Armagnac!

Mirande is best accessed by air to Toulouse airport (100kms), which offers services from the UK with a variety of airlines, including low cost options. Another possibility would be to fly to Tarbes airport (Lourdes) which is about 60kms. The ferry from the UK to Santander/Bilbao is also a reasonable way to travel as Mirande is not far from these ports. Fans of the TGV super fast trains can travel to Toulouse via the Eurostar to Paris.
