Property Overview

For Sale

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.
