This unique and exquisite country residence has truly exceptional Pyrenean Mountain views! It was rescued by its current owners in 2014 following their 5-year search for the perfect setting.  Seeing its potential, they started a 3-year renovation to create an exceptional home worthy of its privileged position and breath-taking 180º views. Having spent over 10 years within the luxury travel industry, the current owners were the ideal custodians to use their experience to bring this authentic, and somewhat humble Béarnaise property, to a level worthy of the sheer beauty of its privileged situation. The outcome is a truly unique ensemble … a more bucolic situation would be difficult to find!! This unique ensemble includes a beautifully restored four-bedroom former farmhouse; a converted L-shape barn housing both a luxury guest apartment and a renovated open space; two bespoke treehouses, one serving as accommodation and the other housing a Nordic spa; an animal shelter and a 10x4m heated saltwater swimming pool. The former farmhouse was renovated in 2014 to include a new natural slate roof, re-wiring, insulation, chalk rendering of the inside walls, travertine stone floors, new kitchen, bathrooms etc.  The main entrance opens into an open plan living room with the original stone fireplace, a split-level dining kitchen and access onto the south facing terrace.  A guest cloakroom and pantry complete the ground floor.  The first floor offers a master bedroom suite with a beautifully appointed bathroom.  Doors from the bedroom lead onto a balcony running along the south façade and leading to a private spa with a picture window from which to appreciate the sunsets over the Pyrenees!  A guest bedroom, or study, completes the first floor. The second floor offers two further double bedrooms and a bathroom. Sitting to the right of the main house is a L shaped barn which was re-roofed in natural slate in 2016. The ground floor offers useful storage space for gardening equipement and garaging.  On the northside of the barn, an external staircase leads to a luxury apartment with a large open plan living room and kitchen, a beautifully appointed bathroom, and a double bedroom.  To the southside of the barn, an internal staircase leads up to a recently renovated open space offering a blank canvas for a new owner to adapt to their needs (i.e. additional accommodation, yoga studio, gym, art gallery etc). Perched within one of the trees is a bespoke oak cabin with a bedroom, a little woodburning stove, kitchen facilities, shower room and terrace.  It was a personal goal of the owners to design and create a luxury treehouse from which to have a bird’s eye view of the mountains. Perched within the neighbouring tree is a Nordic spa heated with a traditional wood fire.  The treehouse and spa offer a unique experience for rental guests as well as an interesting revenue source for the owners.  A 10x4m heated saltwater swimming pool sits to the southside of the property to optimise the views from its wooden deck. A vegetable garden, orchard and small out-building complete this exceptional property.  French Character Homes is delighted to have the opportunity to market this unique and charming property with one of the most exceptional views locally! Viewing is highly recommended! Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the website Géorisques - https://www.georisques.gouv.fr

This elegant and quintessentially French Château is an exceptional find in this region.  The beautiful historic city of Pau with its International school can be reached in 20 minutes and its airport is a mere 15 minutes’ drive away.     Dating back to the early nineteenth century, the classic architecture boasts a wonderful central fronton sympathetically supported by its symmetrical façade. Framing the main façade is a wing surmounted by a working bell tower to the west and a square tower to the east.  The château sits at the end of a long and majestic avenue of ancient oaks, residing in the centre of 7.7 hectares (circa 17acres) of immaculate grounds. This enormously appealing chateau, with its imposing reception rooms and large principal bedrooms makes it ideal for entertaining, while its over 450m² is sufficiently manageable to allow it to be used as a family home or secondary residence.

Two working wells and a spring complete this stunning property. The immediate grounds of 3.4 hectares have been extensively landscaped to create a perfect balance of gardens, meadows and woodlands. The formal gardens, amongst the prettiest in Bearn, include numerous water features; rose ladened pergolas; brimming flower beds and specimen trees. Apples, pears, figs, pomegranates, and feijoas add to the bounty. A large, fenced field of 4.3 hectares provides additional privacy and opportunity for equestrian pursuits or grazing livestock.  This splendid château, with its elegant proportions and beautifully light-filled rooms, is ideally situated just 20 minutes from the beautiful historic city of Pau; one hour from the coastal resort of Biarritz and within one hour’s drive of the ski slopes of the Pyrenees mountains.
