Lovely Béarnais Farmhouse with Outbuildings and 3.6 ha of Land

Property Description

Protected by large curved wooden gates, this authentic Béarnais farmhouse and its guest annex enjoy a totally private location in the heart of 3.6 hectares of land, just 25 minutes from the historic city of Pau, its airport, and international schools.

The main house and its guest annex benefit from fiber optic Internet with RG45 cabling and outlets in every room. In addition, an energy-efficient heat pump, installed in 2021, provides central heating for the main house and hot water for both dwellings.

The building dates back to 1836. The main house deceives with its ground-floor layout, featuring two large living rooms with fireplaces, a kitchen, and the master bedroom with a newly installed en-suite bathroom. Two other bedrooms, a bathroom, and a large games room complete the dwelling on the upper floor.

The guest annex is above the garage and workshop. It offers a living room, an open-plan kitchen, and two bedrooms, each with its own shower room.

At the front, the lawned park is enhanced with plantings and mature trees. A stream marks the boundaries. A small bridge provides access to 2.5 ha of fenced pastures, then to the oak and beech forest (1 ha). The land is fully fenced with a 1.3 m high mesh. A separate entrance allows easy access for maintenance equipment. A stall-stable (permitted by building consent) completes this area dedicated to farming.

The property is ideally located 10 minutes by car from the towns of Lembeye and Morlaàs and 25 minutes by car from the beautiful historic city of Pau, with its international school, its wide range of shops and restaurants. The seaside resort of Biarritz, the Pyrenean ski slopes, and the Spanish border are about an hour's drive away. Pau Airport is 20 minutes away, Tarbes/Lourdes Airport 40 minutes, Biarritz Airport about an hour, and Bordeaux and Toulouse airports about two hours.
