Property Overview

For Sale

Nestled in the heart of the peaceful Landes region, this expansive property presents a rare and exciting opportunity for renovation. With significant potential for both a grand family home and lucrative holiday rental income, the estate comprises three separate buildings—including a 1773 Manor House, two converted outbuildings, offering approximately 600m² of habitable space waiting to be brought back to life.

The main house, dating back to 1773, occupies a privileged position on a hillside with sweeping views of the beautiful surrounding landscape. This historic property has deep roots in the area, being recorded as an old garde-poste on the 1700s “Cassini map.” Although in need of substantial renovation, the Manor House retains many of its original features, including terracotta-tiled floors, colombage (timber-framed) walls, and large feature fireplaces, offering the perfect base to create a unique and character-filled home. The house is spread over two floors and currently offers multiple bedrooms, but the layout would benefit from reconfiguration to suit modern living.

Adjacent to the Manor House, the large barn has been partially converted into a 3-bedroom gîte offering 130m² of living space on the ground floor. The gîte would benefit from modernization to realize its full potential as a holiday rental or guest accommodation. The remainder of the barn (157m²) is currently used for storage and houses the central heating system and utility meters, offering further space for development. At the entrance gates, you’ll find a converted bergerie (sheepfold), offering 90m² of space across two floors. Currently divided into a ground-floor living room , bathroom and kitchen, with three bedrooms and a shower room on the upper floor, this building also requires updating to improve its appeal and functionality. This could be transformed into a fantastic guest suite, additional rental space, or a private retreat.

The property is equipped with a mix of heating systems, though some may require updating and maintenance. The Manor House is currently heated via a wood-fired central heating system with an oil-fired backup, and hot water is supplied by solar panels—an eco-friendly feature that also generates annual income from surplus energy sold back to the grid. The large gite is heated by an oil fired central heating boiler, which also provides hot water. The bergerie is fitted with reversible climate control units and has an electric water cylinder.

Located just 20 minutes from the thermal spa town of Dax and the charming market town of Orthez, this property offers a prime setting for those seeking a rural retreat. Paris is accessible via the TGV in approximately 4 hours, combining the best of countryside living with convenient transport links.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to restore and reimagine a historic property in one of the most sought-after regions of France. Whether you’re looking to create a magnificent family home, develop a boutique holiday rental business, or both, the potential here is immense.
