Property Overview

FCH1163

For Sale

Set in an elevated position at the end of a long, tree-lined driveway, within 5.8 hectares of private grounds, this substantial 18th-century country Manor House enjoys a commanding position with views across to the Pyrenees. Just five minutes from the charming spa town of Salies-de-Béarn, the property has been cherished as a family home for over a century and is now ready to welcome its next custodians.

The estate’s origins are thought to date back to the 16th century, when a hunting lodge stood on the site for King Henri IV of France. The present-day Manor House, built in the 1700s, carries subtle reminders of its royal connection: carved Marguerite de Navarre motifs can still be found in the doors and grand staircase, a symbol of protection and a tribute to Henri IV’s grandmother.

The Manor House is generously proportioned, arranged over three floors with south-east facing, full-height period windows that fill the rooms with light. Its elegant layout includes seven bedrooms, three reception rooms, a grand sweeping staircase, and a large dry cellar beneath. Period features abound throughout, though the house now requires sympathetic updating to restore it to its full grandeur.

The estate also includes a beautifully restored one-bedroom guest cottage, a second one-bedroom cottage in need of renovation, offering further potential and a large stone barn of 81m².

The 12 acres (5.8 hectares) of land are divided between gardens, pasture, and woodland, offering both privacy and scope for equestrian or agricultural use.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire an 18C Manor House which has retained its period features and is brimming with character - offering outstanding potential in one of southwest France’s most sought-after settings.
