Authentic Basque farmhouse dating from 1850, renovated, not overlooked, south-facing, in a wooded park bordering the forest, some work required

Summary
A living space with great potential. The guest house allows for independent accommodation for a family member. This charming house, thanks to the presence of wood and stone, does, however, need some updating. It was nicknamed "the healing house" by visitors who found it hard to leave! One of the ground-floor rooms, with its external access, can be converted into a small, self-contained apartment without significant expense. Attached to the house, a small studio with a shower and separate entrance offers the possibility of accommodating someone from outside the family.

Location
This location is highly sought after by buyers looking to combine an active lifestyle with the benefits of the countryside.

As mentioned above, administrative, transport, educational, and healthcare services are all within a 2 km radius. The sea is about 12 km away, and the mountains are easily accessible via the village of Villefranque.

Access
Bayonne train station, on the Paris-Bayonne line, is 9 km from Villefranque.
Biarritz airport is 12 km away.
The motorway is 6 km away.

Interior
The house will need some updating. A system that appears to be effective has been installed to eliminate the recurring humidity problems common in the Basque Country.
On the ground floor, the presence of two fireplaces, one with a wood-burning stove and the other with an insert, can replace the gas heating, which has become expensive.
Upstairs, one of the three bedrooms, due to its considerable size, could be divided in two or converted into a bedroom and living room.
The roof is in good condition.
The awning needs replacing.

Exterior
The garden is planted with trees and could accommodate a vegetable patch.

Two garages: one semi-open and the other open.

A pool equipment room and a boiler room.

A small 50 sq m house, in need of renovation, currently rented. The roof insulation was redone last year.
A 10m x 4m swimming pool. The resin is deteriorating, and we obtained a quote of €17,000 to repair it. This should be factored into your budget.

Additional Details
There is no connection to the sewer system, but there is a septic tank. We don't know if it will need to be replaced as it is not new.

Revenue Generation
560 euros for the guest house
