Property with poolBordeaux (33)

An 18th-century villa listed as a historical monument with 6,000m² of grounds, nestled in the heart of Bordeaux in a highly sought-after village-like district. In 1775, Jean-Pierre Labat de Serene, a shipowner and wheat and flour merchant, purchased the Mirande estate and built this villa there between 1784 and 1785. The villa was built in a context of transformation in architectural art in the Bordeaux region, under the influence of the architect Victor Louis. The dwelling is set back in grounds that are enclosed with an elegant wrought-iron fence that runs alongside the road from which the entrance gate leads into the property. A hipped roof of red barrel tiles crowns the villa. This roof is punctuated with zinc dormers and five chimney stacks. At the end of the grounds, a covered swimming pool and a garage lie in absolute privacy. At the villa’s north end, there is a cellar with several compartments.
