Description

Set along a quiet, rural country lane, this lovely property is a traditional Gascon farmhouse with outbuildings. It is set in a garden of 8,468m2 (just over 2 acres) which has lovely views over the surrounding countryside and rolling hills. The main house has 3 bedrooms; bathroom; double aspect kitchen with original fireplace and wood burner and original floor tiles; living room with original fireplace and wood burner, storage room. The property is in need of refreshment and updating and work has already commenced on the creation of an ensuite shower room in the master bedroom. The attached barn is a generous covered terrace with workshop and storage room and a door which leads to the rear garden. The swimming pool is set on a terrace with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside and rolling hills. The pool requires some attention, and a new liner, as it has not been used in some years. There is a further barn in the garden which serves as the pool house and could provide further accommodation if necessary.

Although situated in a peaceful hamlet, the house is less than 10 minutes to town (Trie sur Baise) and 35 minutes to Tarbes for motorway links and train station. Airports: Tarbes 45 minutes; Toulouse 90 minutes.
