Full Description
In the heart of more than 18 hectares of meadows and woods, just 30 minutes from Bordeaux and the Arcachon Bay, in Barp, this exceptional property unfolds at the end of a private 450-meter driveway, in a calm, preserved, and private setting.
This former stone-and-brick farm has undergone a complete renovation with high-quality materials. Now clad in Douglas wood siding class 4 (excluding sapwood), it develops about 250 m2 of living space on two levels and offers upscale amenities. The finishes reflect the care given to this renovation: solid oak skirting boards, a masonry staircase dressed with solid oak steps, and a granite work surface in the kitchen.
From the entrance, the generous volumes and natural light instantly charm. The ground floor centers around a superb 80 m2 living room, consisting of a fitted and equipped open-plan kitchen opening onto the living-dining area, enhanced by a pellet stove. Thanks to its triple exposure, this space offers a permanent view of the meadows where the horses roam on either side of the property.
This level also includes a utility room, an office that can serve as a bedroom, a dressing room, and an elegant independent air-conditioned 35 m2 suite, currently used as a guest room, with its own shower room, private WC, and a hot tub.
Upstairs, four air-conditioned bedrooms each have their own shower or en-suite bathroom, ensuring comfort and privacy. A separate WC completes this level.
Outside, the wellness area centers around a magnificent 14 x 5.5-meter pool, bordered by a terrace of about 200 m2 in ceramic limestone, ideal for hosting family and friends. A wood-fire heated Nordic bath completes this relaxation space.
Outdoor installations will perfectly suit horse enthusiasts with a wooden barn of 108 m2 with a covered extension, a stable-equipped hangar, several electrified meadows, a year-round usable riding arena, a well, and a natural pond. The vast meadows and wooded areas also allow direct horse riding from the property.
Rare for the area, this property elegantly combines modern comfort, high-end services, and an exceptional natural setting. It is suitable for an equestrian project, a hospitality activity, or a prestigious main residence, while remaining close to Bordeaux and the Atlantic Ocean.
