Well I often have people asking me to find them a Basque farmhouse in a dominant position with mountain views, not too vast, away from the crowds yet not isolated and with all mod cons but with character. I usually have to say to them that they will certainly have to compromise on something and that they need to give me time!!
Well, this property I have to say, ticks all the above boxes, no compromise needed!
Here you have an old Basque farmhouse perched on the side of a hill with no neighbours (aside a small barn nearby), overlooking the Pyrénées, only 10 mins from the centre of the market town of St Palais, 40 mins from the coast, 40 mins from the mountains and with all the comforts of a modern home yet all the original character of a Basque farmstead still intact.
The farm offers you approximately 180m² of living space comprising a vast open plan living area with wood burner, fitted kitchen, dining area and access to the front and back gardens. There is a further 'snug' area which also has a wood burner within the original fireplace, exposed stonework and original beams, perfect for cosy evenings, glass of local wine in hand!
There is an en-suite bedroom on the ground floor with access to the garden.
A modern steel staircase leads to a very spacious mezzanine area which opens on to three further double bedrooms and a spacious shower room and separate WC. The bedrooms have orignal stone features, wooden flooring and are very light.
There is also a loft for storage.
The exterior has not been developped to the same extent but a quote for an above ground pool has been established and would be possible in the future. There is also plenty of space to lay a terrasse for al fresco dining.
For those in search of a real haven for getting away from it all without being cut off from the world, this is for you!
