Description

Tucked along a quiet, country lane with stunning views across the Pyrenees and the surrounding rolling countryside, this wonderful Gascon property is only 5 minutes to the local market town. The nearest neighbours are approximately 150 metres away. The house was originally built in the early 1800s and the main barn in the late 1700s. Packed with original features (fireplaces, wooden floorboards, original stone sink, original wooden staircase), this house is already a comfortable family home. It has been substantially renovated and is now partially central heated (oil fired boiler for heat and hot water) and partially double glazed. There is still room to put your own mark on this charming home with further modernization. The farmhouse has: entrance hall with original split level wooden staircase and understairs storage; bespoke fitted kitchen with integral appliances and French doors to garden; living room with original fireplace and wood burner, original stone sink, door to garden; office with fireplace; spacious utility room (50m) with WC and shower room. First floor: landing 1 with original floor boards; 3 bedrooms (one would be an ideal ensuite/dressing room); landing 2 with access to 3 further bedrooms; WC; bathroom.

The several outbuildings include: garage with barn attached; barn with conservatory attached; barn with grenier and staircase; hangar. There are plenty of possibilities for a gite or annex conversion. The garden has many trees, flower beds, shrubs and areas of lawn. There is a well with water, parking for several cars and plenty of room for a swimming pool. The property has a septic tank. Fibre optic internet is arriving shortly in the village but the property already has an internet connection. Despite the bucolic location, the property is only 5 minutes to Mielan; 15 minutes to Mirande and 40 minutes to Auch. MOTORWAY/TRAIN STATION; Tarbes 40 minutes.
