Located in the centre of a picture-postacard village near Navarrenx, this charming 7-bedroom house is ideal for a large family! With the beach resorts of Biarritz, Hossegor and St-Jean-de-Luz about 60 minutes away and ski resorts in the Pyrénées are 70 minutes away, the property would also be perfect for a holiday home, a gîte to rent out to holidaymakers or an upmarket Bed & Breakfast business.
The house faces south and catches the sun all day long. The property's walled garden also faces south and is bordered by a small stream (behind the wall). There is a large covered terrace next to the kitchen, which would be ideal as a summer kitchen.
The entrance to the house is hidden behind large gates, ensuring complete privacy. You can park in the small courtyard in front of the house, or you can use the detached garage (25m2) or the barn (66m2), which adjoins the house.
From the small courtyard, a door opens into a spacious kitchen/dining room, which is equipped with a range-style gas cooker. This room has a door into the ground floor of the barn.
From the kitchen/dining room, a pretty stone archway leads into a sitting room with a traditional fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. This room has a door out to the street, as well as a wooden staircase to the upper floors.
To the left of the sitting room is a bedroom with an en suite bathroom. The bedroom would also be suitable as a study/office, a television room, a games room, a formal dining room... In addition, the bathroom has a door which opens into the barn, which would allow you to use the bedroom and bathroom as a self-contained B&B suite, for example.
The first floor of the house has three large bedrooms (18.6m2,18.3m2,13m2), two small children's bedrooms (8.5m2 & 8.1m2), a shower room with a WC and access to unconverted loft space on the second floor. The small bedrooms would be ideal to use as a nursery, a study/office or guest bedrooms. Alternatively, they could be transformed into en suite shower rooms, if desired.
The first floor of the adjoining barn is directly accessible from the first floor of the house, or via a staircase on the ground floor of the barn. Recently converted, the first floor of the barn comprises three light and airy bedrooms (24m2,20.6m2,16.8m2) and a separate WC.
The house is completely ready to move into and would definitely suit a family looking for a large family home or a holiday home. With seven bedrooms, the property would be perfect for renting out as a "gîte de groupe" - or if you prefer to set up a Bed & Breakfast business, a change of layout for the first-floor rooms and the addition of some shower rooms should hopefully bring you a steady stream of paying guests all year round!
The property is in a lively village with a couple of bar-bistros and a small grocery shop, where you can buy fresh bread. The nearby towns of Navarrenx and Sauveterre-de-Béarn (15 minutes) both have exciting watersports on the "gave" (river), as well as numerous cultural and sporting events for you to participate in.
Both towns also have a great choice of shops, boutiques and lively bars and restaurants... And Navarrenx even has a bilingual school (French/English). The "International School of Béarn" in Pau, which teaches the English curriculum, is just 50 minutes.

the potential!
Although in need of some refreshing, this spacious village property is ready to move into! With 251m2 of living space, the house is perfect for a fantastic family home or an excellent holiday home, especially since it is halfway between beach resorts and ski resorts... And with numerous bedrooms to choose from, you will have plenty of room to accommodate your friends and family when they come to visit you!
If you work from home, a couple of the rooms would be ideal for using as an office - and the ground floor of the barn could be used as a workshop for a business (permission required).
For families with children, there are several primary schools to choose from in neighbouring villages, including a bilingual (French/English) school in Navarrenx. Older children have a choice of collège-lycées in Orthez, Sauveterre-de-Béarn, Salies-de-Béarn and St-Palais.
With the addition of some en suite shower rooms, this super village house has great potential for creating luxurious Bed & Breakfast accommodation. Tourists visit this splendid area all year round, with many hoping to find upmarket B&B accommodation within walking distance of bars and restaurants... Making this an ideal B&B property!
During the quieter months of the year, you might like to use the barn or the covered terrace for hosting activities for your B&B guests, such as yoga and wellness workshops, painting and writing classes - and the large kitchen would be perfect for cookery or Jurançon wine-tasting masterclasses...
If you are happy to organise transport, you could offer luxury accommodation to pilgrims who are walking the Chemin-de-St-Jacques-de-Compostelle, since the pilgrim route passes fairly close by (5km). Pilgrims need accommodation all year round - and they will be particularly delighted if you can offer hearty suppers when they arrive, delicious breakfasts and even picnic hampers for lunch, especially if they are full of local Béarnaise and Basque delicacies!

The local area
This delightful village house is located in the beautiful Béarn in South-West France. It is not far from the Pyrénées, the Atlantic coast, Pau, Lourdes and the Basque Country - and the vibrant cities of Bordeaux, Toulouse, San-Sebastián and Bilbao are all within easy reach.
Popular with tourists all year round for hiking, mountain-biking, white-water rafting and fishing, the Béarn also has numerous ski resorts just over an hour away to the south, where you can go downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding and snow-shoeing. For those who prefer beach-based activities, the Atlantic coast is an hour away to the west, where you can surf, swim and picnic at Biarritz, St-Jean-de-Luz, Hendaye, Hossegor...
If your interests are gastronomic, the village has two bar-bistros a short stroll away - and there are numerous bars and restaurants in the delightful riverside town of Navarrenx. You can also enjoy exploring the many farmers' markets throughout the Béarn and nearby Basque Country, where you can sample locally produced Jurançon wines, tasty Bayonne ham cured in salt from Salies-de-Béarn and fabulous Brebis, (a cheese made from ewes' milk), which is normally eaten with delicious black cherry jam from Itxassou!
