An atypical victorian house

Only yards away from Saint-Jean-de-Luz, this hidden gem consists of a 13-ha domain and a main house featuring 750 sq m of living space. At the heart of a peaceful and quiet environment, the property has an unobstructed view over the sacred Basque country mountain of La Rhune, one of the major attraction in the area. "It’s an old family house, says Barnes Côte basque. Erected in 1890, it only had four owners, each of whom stayed an average of 30 years before selling it back." The Victorian house has 16 main rooms of various sizes with an English atmosphere, including a 50-sq m living room and a 60-sq m dining room. The entrance hall has a wide clearance, a stone fireplace and a monumental staircase. In all, there are nine bedrooms, one of which features a spacious balcony. Facing the main building, a promontory leads to a terrace, the ideal place for sunbathing enthusiasts. Boasting lawns, a rose garden and hundred-year old trees, the park also features an 18x9-m swimming pool, a pool house complete with its own kitchen and a shower. Other amenities include a tennis court, and a private 3-hole golf course with its golf cart. The sale comes with a 125-sq m guest house and a 100-sq m keeper’s house located at the domain’s entrance.
