A Superbe Maison De Maître with an Elevated Position Set in the Jurancon Wine Region

Property Description

Situated at the end of its private tree lined driveway, this Maison de Maître sits perched on the edge of its hillside overlooking its 7 hectares of private woodland and open countryside. A large renovated barn (240m2) sits to the north side of the property and could be transformed into additional accommodation or used for a specific project. The swimming pool has been sympathetically implanted to the west side of the property together with its covered terrace and pool house. A second smaller barn is situated to the south side of the ensemble and serves as a boiler room for the geothermic heating system, as well as a general gardening / tool shed.

The property has been beautifully renovated to marry together its original features with a contemporary look and comfort. The addition of a traditional iron framed conservatory provides a supplementary living room and enables the magnificent views to be appreciated all year round.

Accommodation is provided over two floors with the main entrance opening into a generous entrance hallway with the dining room situated to the right and connecting to the kitchen. The large living room is located to the left and runs the entire width of the property connecting into the bespoke iron-framed conservatory. The staircase, with its galleried landing, serves the four generous sized bedrooms, two of which have en-suites and the other two share the family shower room. The second floor is largely attic space with the inclusion of two original staff bedrooms, which could be easily renovated into further accommodation.

This property has a lot of appeal … a gated tree lined entrance; an elevated position with open views; an immaculately presented interior and a large out-building to accommodate a project ! In addition it is located just 10 minutes from the restaurants and boutiques of the historic city of Pau and yet with the tranquillity and privacy of the countryside, this property has the best of both worlds ! Communication links are also good: 45 minutes from the ski slopes of the Pyrénées and one hour from the lively cosmopolitan coastal resort of Biarritz and the Spanish border. Pau airport 20 minutes; Tarbes/Lourdes airport 40 minutes; Toulouse airport 90 minutes.
