Property Description

This Gascon farmhouse was apparently built as early as the 1600s with a visible date stamp of 1768. The property is south facing and looks out to the countryside and mountains. Thoughtfully modernised whilst retaining many period features such as colombage (half-timbered) walls, fireplaces, original stone sinks, it now offers a comfortable double-glazed home. The property has beautiful views over the surrounding countryside and Pyrenees and is located in a quiet hamlet on the outskirts of a rural village. Great mountain views can usually be seen from the living room, kitchen/diner, master bedroom, guest bedroom, landing, terraces and garden. The septic tank conforms to current regulations and the property is connected to fibre internet. The main dwelling comprises: entrance hall with staircase and original colombage wall; double aspect living room with original cupboard and stone sink, fireplace and wood burner; double aspect, fitted kitchen with fireplace and wood burner; utility room; WC with sink and heated towel rail; office area; storage room/larder; dining room with French doors to garden; landing and corridor with wooden floor boards, colombage wall ; double aspect bedroom with adjoining bathroom (shower, sink, toilet); bedroom 2 with fireplace; triple aspect master bedroom with dressing area and door to private terrace/balcony; bathroom with freestanding bath, walk in shower, toilet, sink, heated towel rail. A new roof was put on the whole property in 2006. The property has electric heating, independently programmable radiators and unfloor heating in main bathroom. The garage is to the west of the property and a covered terrace in the garden is the perfect area for a barbeque, looking out to the pond, countryside and mountains. There is also an independent barn with hangar attached to the east of the house, large enough to park a camping car. Despite the peaceful location, the house is only 10 minutes to two market towns, Mirande and Trie sur Baise for local shopping and markets. Tarbes 40 minutes (hospital, train station, motorway). AIRPORTS: 45 mins Tarbes, 90 mins Toulouse, 70 minutes Pau. 70 mins ski resorts and 2 hours Atlantic coast.
