In the triangle formed by the market towns of Lembeye, Vic en Bigorre, and Maubourguet, this house has 200m² habitable space, with four bedrooms, a swimming pool overlooking the surrounding hills and valleys, in gardens of about 2,500m².
You will fall under the spell of this house, covered in ivy, dating from 1790, on the edge of a small country road and facing full south.
White gates lead into a courtyard in front of the house, with the car shelter to your left. The rest of the garden is behind.
The front door, under a porch, opens into an entrance hall. To the left you find the living room (25 m²) with a fireplace with fitted woodburner. This room has a door to the kitchen (24m²), which is used also as the dining room, with a well equipped scullery (10m²).
Going back to the entrance hall you find another living room (23m²), off which is a room which is currently used as a utility room (18m²) to the north.
At the foot of the staircase you find a bedroom (14m²), a bathroom (6m²), and a wc.
Taking the wooden staircase to the first floor landing, you find the first bedroom (19m²) and the second (17m²), both in the eaves.
Going back to the kitchen you find the fourth bedroom (24m²), totally self contained and with a door to the West, and to the swimming pool (10m x 5m).
Outside, the well planted garden contains, opposite the house, a car porch, then the paved paths take you to the swimming pool (to the west). At this point, you look around you, at the hills and valleys, and get the impression that your garden goes on forever…….
To the north is a well, providing free water for watering the garden and topping up the pool.
The construction is traditional, the roof is tiled, the walls are of flint and quarry stone. There is oil fired central heating, backing up the wood burner. The windows are PVC double glazing, and there is a septic tank up to standard.
The property is situated 5 minutes from Vic en Bigorre, 5 minutes from Maubourguet, and from Lembeye, 30 minutes from Tarbes (TGV), 30 mins from Morlaas, 40 mins from Pau (Ryanair), 1hr 30mins from Spain, and from the lower ski slopes, 1hr 40mins from Biarritz and the Atlantic beach resorts, 1hr 30mins from Toulouse (Easyjet, Flybe, BMIBaby, Aer Lingus), and 2hrs 50mins from the Mediterranean.
