luxury listed house for sale Laurède, France

In the Landes, 20 minutes from Mont-de-Marsan, a vast Capcazalière house of Chalosse, listed as a Historical Monument. Built around 1600, the property offers approximately 500 m² of living space on a plot of around 5,000 m². It is organized around a main house that rises two levels, beneath a two-pitched roof with widely overhanging tiles, whose plastered facades, rhythmically punctuated by stone cross windows equipped with small pane frames, are marked by a Renaissance-style stone entrance door, framed by pilasters and topped with a sculpted entablature; the overhanging roofs, supported by exposed wooden braces, emphasize its composition.Inside, a wooden staircase, four finely crafted stone fireplaces, and the Louis XIV-style paneling of a dining room have been preserved and are protected as Historical Monuments, as are the Gascon floors and the tiled surfaces. During the revolutionary troubles, the house housed a secret cache for refractory priests, discreet access to which still exists today.On either side, two parallel outbuildings, whose facades and roofs are also listed, elongated in volume and covered with tiles, frame the whole and contribute to the organization of three courtyards, alternately sunny or shaded.This description has been automatically translated from French.
