PYRENEES ATLANTIQUES,Charming Traditional Basque Stone House with Barn - Exceptional Potential

Dating back to the 1800s, this beautiful traditional Basque village house is full of character and authentic charm. Recently occupied primarily on the first floor, the property offers an exciting opportunity to create a substantial family residence, with some renovation work required on the ground floor.
The house currently provides 174 m² of living space, complemented by an adjoining barn offering a further 150 m²across two levels (90 m² on the ground floor and 60 m² on the first floor), presenting enormous scope for expansion, guest accommodation, workshops, or additional living areas.
The spacious main entrance opens onto the ground floor, where a door to the right leads into a delightful summer kitchen featuring a traditional fireplace and double doors opening directly onto the terrace and gardens. This level also includes a cosy sitting room, dining room, bathroom, separate WC, and utility room with direct access to the adjoining barn.
A staircase leads to the first floor, where a bright and welcoming living room enjoys direct access to a long south-facing balcony with lovely views over the surrounding hills. The principal bedroom also opens onto this balcony and benefits from access to a charming covered east-facing gallery. This floor further comprises two additional bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom, separate WC, and access to the 60 m² upper level of the barn, offering excellent renovation potential.
The barn is a particularly attractive feature, benefiting from dual access both from the village lane and directly into the gardens. The beautifully established grounds extend to 916 m², stretching from one lane to another and planted with mature trees and shrubs, creating a private and peaceful outdoor setting.
The property is situated in a picturesque village nestled in the rolling foothills of the Pyrenees, offering an excellent range of local amenities including a renowned restaurant, supermarket, artisan butcher, bakery, pharmacy, and medical centre.
Ideally positioned between the mountains and the Atlantic coast, the house is located midway between the market towns of Mauléon-Licharre and Oloron-Sainte-Marie. The ski resorts of La Pierre Saint-Martin and Issarbe are just 45 minutes away, while the beaches of Biarritz and the Atlantic coastline can be reached in a little over an hour. International access is convenient via the airports of Pau, Tarbes-Lourdes, and Biarritz.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the location is exceptional. The famous Camino de Santiago (Chemin de Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle) passes on the edge of the village, while the nearby GR10 hiking trail traverses the entire Pyrenees from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea.
A rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled Basque property with extensive development potential in one of the most beautiful regions of South-West France.
