Outstanding Farmhouse With Spacious Converted Wing
Set in a delightfully private location beside woodland with splendid views of the Pyrenees, the property is particularly well arranged for outdoor living and ideal for entertaining a large family or holiday letting.
An exceptional property combining period character with modern comfort in a beautifully converted barn wing, extending from the original period farmhouse. Strong features are the spacious living areas and covered terraces on two levels, which introduce an unusual amount of light and special atmosphere. The house can sleep a dozen adults in comfort with a great choice of areas for privacy or gathering together.
Another strong selling point is the superb poolside building with a massive covered terrace and fully equipped summer kitchen. To the rear, the same building provides a double carport and two lockup garages or workshops. Beyond the pool the property is ancient woodland and the gardened areas, bordered by mixed hedges, have colour year-round. 8,443 square meters in all.
