For Sale - Sole Agency
Tucked away in the heart of a picturesque village in southwest France, this late 18th-century country home is brimming with period charm and untapped potential. In need of sympathetic restoration, it offers a rare opportunity to revive a historic property and create a stunning family home or holiday home.
Set across approximately 215m² of habitable space, the house boasts an array of enchanting original features, including flagstone floors, wood panelling, and beautifully carved chimneypieces. The spacious ground floor includes three reception rooms, a study, a basic kitchen, utility area, and WC. Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms to the front elevation and two smaller bedrooms overlooking the rear gardens, a family bathroom, and a separate WC—offering ample space for modern family living.
Attached to the main residence are two characterful outbuildings: a former lavoir (traditional laundry house), perfect for garden storage or conversion, and an impressive barn offering 90m² on the ground floor with a further 130m² above. This vast space could be transformed into additional living quarters, gîtes, or a creative studio—subject to necessary permissions.
The mature, walled gardens provide a private and peaceful setting with established trees and shrubs, ideal for outdoor entertaining or quiet reflection.
Ideally located equidistant between the medieval hilltop town of Sauveterre-de-Béarn and the 14th-century fortified town of Navarrenx, this home enjoys both rural tranquillity and access to the vibrant cultural and tourist life of the region.
Whether you're looking for a grand renovation project, a family home with space to grow, or a property with business potential in a popular tourist destination, this charming residence invites you to reimagine its next chapter.
