Although this 19th century maison de maître is within the heart of the village the living accommodation and gardens are private and to the rear and accessed by a sweeping driveway. The current owner has sympathetically upgraded the property adding double glazed windows to the front and a lift to the first floor, reversible air conditioning and there are 3 thermodynamic water heaters The original features have been retained and enhanced and there is an easy flow through the rooms. It could be used equally well as a small bed and breakfast business or a large family home.

Double wooden doors at the side open into a large hallway with original tiling and a wide wooden double back staircase. The bright lounge with oak chevron flooring has windows overlooking the gardens and double doors through to a further lounge/ library again overlooking the gardens. A corridor, past a “servant’s stair and utility area leads to a spacious square dining kitchen with ample storage and areas for preparing, cooking and washing up. The formal dining room comfortably hosts guests and can be accessed from the hall passing the office and lift.

On the first floor are 3 double bedrooms, each individually styled and enjoying luxurious en-suite facilities. The top floor has a central seating area with bedrooms off it. There is potential for a reconfiguration here if desired.

A short meander through the gardens is the orangerie which has been extensively upgraded to provide a one bedroomed gîte full of charm. Closer to the house is the caretaker’s house and an extensive building which has been reroofed and provides stabling and a sellerie. This has potential to be converted into further accommodation subject to planning approval. Opposite is a smaller building housing a bread oven. To the side is a henhouse.

The rear lawn is extensive and is framed by a number of mature trees and some borders. There is a paved terrace along the length of the rear of the house. There is a fenced paddock behind the gîte and a larger field beyond the trees which can be accessed by a path from the stables.

There are restaurants and shops within walking distance and the departmental capital with its wide range of commercial facilities a short drive away. The motorway network is 10 minutes and from their connections to Bordeaux and its international airport, Pau an historic city with many attractions, its regional airport and Tgv station, the Pyrenees mountain range with its skiing , walking and wildlife and the Atlantic beaches and Spain.
