VILLAGE PRESBYTERY AND GARDEN WITH MOUNTAIN VIEWS

EUR 325'000 | REF. GFP847

Situated not far from Rabastens this property (habitable surface area 170m²) was the Presbytery for the village. The current owners are still in the process of renovating the house and barn but it is immediately and comfortably habitable. The roof is in good condition and the house has been exceptionally well insulated (Rockwool) and gas-fired central heating has been installed. Unlike most houses, the back of the house is a complete mirror image of the front, and due to the tall double-glazed windows, light floods into the house all day long.

There is the potential renovate the barn into a gite. At the moment only a bedroom has been created, but there is plenty of space to construct a bathroom and a couple of reception rooms. A lot of time has been spent in creating a very beautiful garden with many flowering shrubs including roses and hibiscus, and there are also cherry and fig trees.

The property comprises:

On the ground floor:

Through part-glazed double doors you enter into the hall (15.79m²) with original oak staircase and original tomette tiled floor. Through to the right is the living room (27.49m²) with tiled floor and fireplace with wood-burner. To the left is the dining room (18.13m²), which has a tiled floor and large fireplace. An archway leads through to the kitchen (11.43m²), with new fitted units and appliances. It is plumbed for both a washing machine and a dishwasher. At the far end of the hall, glazed doors lead out to the rear garden and there is a bathroom (7.17m²) comprising bath and sink, with a separate WC.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room (this is a work in progress), the boiler is already installed, which supplies both heating and hot water. The plumbing is being installed for a washing machine and a concrete floor will be laid. There is also a door out to the terrace.

On the first floor:

At the top of the stairs, the landing (8.61m²) is currently being used as a study area. To the left is bedroom 1 (16.87m²) with wood floor and views of the Pyrénées, en-suite bathroom (9.12m²) comprising bath, shower, sink and WC. To the right from the landing is bedroom 2 (16.01m²) and bedroom 3 (9.71m²). At the moment, the plan is to create a small passage to give bedroom 3 direct access from the landing, however it could also be converted to an en-suite bathroom quite easily (plumbing is just below) and if further bedrooms were needed the attic (70.96m² into the eaves) could be converted.

Outdoor space:

Garden of 3,165m², mostly laid to lawn. At the front of the house is a terraced area surrounded by flowering shrubs.

Outbuildings:

The barn which is approximately 70m² in total, spread out over two floors, would make an ideal gite, one bedroom has already been created but there is still plenty of room to create a one or two reception rooms and a bathroom.

Garage of 39m² with electric single up-and-over door, provides plenty of room for a car and garden equipment

Our Picks

This beautiful Chateau is situated in the quiet countryside on the outskirts of a small village not far from Plaisance du Gers and Marciac with its famous Jazz Festival. The Chateau itself is very handsome with clean symmetrical lines and comes with an equally handsome pigeonnier, plus an L-shaped guardian's cottage with attached barn and a separate stable block. We understand the property was bought in the early 80s more or less as a ruin and was completely renovated to the highest of standards. Where possible original features were saved and restored or when necessary substituted with suitable period replacements. There is good quality flooring throughout either in wood or tomette tile, a magnificent stone staircase and there are little patches of trompe l'oeil painting. Many of the rooms have silk lined walls, many have panelling and most have period fireplaces. Sadly however the property is no longer inhabited and needs a new owner to come along and restore it to its former glory. At nine bedrooms and with a habitable surface area of 650m², the property is large but not too large, and it will make someone a wonderful family home.
