Property Description
This lovely ensemble, a former farm house and 2 barns, are currently used as a family home, a B&B / holiday home. The second barn could be transformed into further guest accommodation. Not isolated, yet very private with a 9 x 4 m pool, the property is only a short drive from the the market town of Oloron-Sainte-Marie, and is ideally situated close to the foothills of the Pyrenees.
The main house offers a large (58m2) salon, a kitchen, summer kitchen and a utility on the ground floor. Pretty features include the original kitchen sink, a large fireplace and a bread oven. The exposed stone throughout the salon makes it feel cosy, warm and comfortable.There are four bedrooms, a shower room and a good sized landing on the first floor. The former barn, also from the 18th Century, has been transformed into living accommdation, with a large salon (45m2), a small kitchen, a bedroom with en-suite bathroom on the ground floor, and four bedrooms, each with their own shower room on the first floor. Both properties benefit from double glazing and are South facing, with panoramic views of the Pyrenees and the foothills. The garden is divided into two parts, the first one providing ample space for the vegetable patch, next to the well, and the other part providing the out door dining and chilling, next to the swimming pool.
The property is ideally positioned for outdoor activities, like cycling, skiing, fishing, hiking, kayaking and lots more. The nearest town, Oloron-Sainte-Marie, offers supermarkets, hospitals, cafés, restaurants, schools etc., as well as many music and sports festivals. Every Friday morning, the traditional market attracts many people. It takes place around the Town Hall, and in covered market halls in the adjacent streets.
