Just 6 kilometres from the market town of Maubourguet, this south facing period country house offers, all on one floor, 2 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, 1 dining room and on the first floor loft space for conversion, in grounds totalling about 1,000m?. You enter the house via a small reception room. To the right the kitchen (17m?) is separated by a fretwork wall and is one step down, and is tiled and boasts a wood burner. Opposite you find the dining room (27m?), with a bar in the corner and an open fireplace, which is separated from living room (36m?) by an open partition featuring vertical exposed beams. A saloon style door takes you to the sleeping quarters in the ?L? of the house. A hallway serves two bedrooms facing east and west (13m? and 14m?), a tiled bathroom (7m?) and a separate wc. Going back to the living room, you can access the cellar (7m?) and a third bedroom (17m?) overlooking the gardens to the south. These rooms need a bit of refreshing, but the cachet of the house has been preserved, with lots of exposed beams and lovely flint walls. You could convert the loft space, which is the same size as the house, at your leisure, making the best use of the beautiful oak beams and rafters. The front garden faces south, and has a lawned area, a tiled area for the barbeque, and the gravelled terrace leads to the lean to wooden car port (for 3 cars), and a workshop, with a former pigeon coop and wood store for the fireplace. At the rear, the well can be used for watering the garden (1,000m?), which is totally enclosed and would welcome a pool. The construction is traditional, the roof is tiled. Heating and hot water are electric, augmented by the open fireplace. The windows and the shutters are wood. There is a septic tank. The property is 6km from Maubourguet, 10 mins from Marciac (famed for its music festivals), and from Rabastens, 15mins from Vic en Bigorre, 30mins from Tarbes (TGV) and from the motorway, 1 hour from Pau (Ryanair), 2 hours from Spain, and from the lower ski slopes, 2 hours also from Toulouse (Easyjet, Flybe, BMIBaby, Aer Lingus), and in the other direction from Biarritz and the Atlantic beach resorts, and 3hrs 20mins from the Mediterranean.
