waterfront manor for sale Lanton, France

A dwelling from 1900 surrounded by wooded grounds, partially classified as a 'Protected Wooded Area', near the Arcachon Bay waterfront. Characteristic of the shores of Arcachon Bay, this dwelling from 1900 is surrounded by more than 7,000 m² of densely wooded grounds and lush vegetation. Located on the waterfront, it overlooks the coastline and provides an enchanting panorama of the bay’s calm waters, while its coastal architecture, specific to the Southwest seaside, embodies the understated elegance of holiday homes from the 19th century. With light-colour plaster-coated exteriors, typical of other dwellings in the area, cadenced by red brick window surrounds, quoins, friezes and lintels, its painted wooden balconies, pelmets, shutters and structural elements come together in a harmonious contrast of white, red and wood, one of the architectural signposts from that period. Rectangular in shape, the dwelling, with two upper stories of identical proportions, is topped with a red tile, evenly pitched gable roof, featuring wide overhangs sometimes decorated with delicate pelmets, while its top-floor dormer windows stand out thanks to their triangular pediments. Facing the great outdoors, the dwelling boasts many patios and windows in order to enjoy the mild climate, which remains protected from the wind thanks to the surrounding vegetation.
