This manor ("maison de maître"), dating back to 1680, has been continuously inhabited, maintained and thoughtfully renovated over generations. With approximately 4,790 square feet of living space and a discreetly landscaped garden, the property offers a quiet dialogue between architectural substance and historical depth.
A newly installed smart gate (2024) opens to reveal a classically proportioned façade whose restrained elegance evokes the spirit of an urban townhouse. The entrance hall leads into an impressive 750-square-foot salon featuring a monumental fireplace from the Ancien Régime, Campan marble flooring and original wood paneling. Once used as a Revolutionary tribunal in 1792, the room bears the marks of its layered past.
Opposite lies the formal dining room, adjoined by a more intimate salon. The 300-square-foot kitchen is fully equipped and connected to a pantry, a 375-square-foot utility and laundry room, as well as an office, separate WC and a shower room – allowing for single-level living if desired.
A finely crafted staircase leads to the upper floor and a second salon of equal size, ideal as a library or music room. Three well-proportioned suites offer warmth and light through original flooring, doors and fireplaces:
- A 540-square-foot suite with private garden access and en-suite bathroom
- Two additional suites of 355 and 270 square feet
- An extra 290-square-foot chamber with stone washbasin and fireplace
A second staircase discreetly connects to the upper suites and to a spacious attic, ready for conversion.
The property also includes a 365-square-foot garage with an adjoining workshop. Above it, a 750-square-foot space is prepared for use as an atelier or guest apartment. A freestanding outbuilding with stone walls, once a wine press room, is ideal for conversion into a wellness area with spa, sauna or fitness space.
The secluded garden has been professionally landscaped, featuring mature trees, flowering borders, an 8 × 4 m pool with new filtration system (chlorine, liner and motor), a covered terrace with built-in grill and a decorative fountain.
Technically, the property is in excellent condition: a new roof structure, heat pump, double-glazed windows (preserving original details in the staircase), two hot water tanks and a lift pump system for waste and garden irrigation are already in place.
Despite its central location, the house remains peaceful and private – with daily amenities just a short walk away. The A64 motorway and train station are a few minutes by car. Tarbes, Bagnères-de-Bigorre, several golf courses and the nearest airport are all within 20 minutes. Pau is 30 minutes away, Toulouse 1 hour 15 minutes, the Atlantic coast (Biarritz) 1 hour 30 minutes, the Pyrenees 1 hour and the Mediterranean about 2.5 hours.
