A Contemporary Basque House with Panoramic Pyrenees Views on 1.5 HA Plot, walkable to town!

Built in 2021, this contemporary Basque-style home is superbly located within walking distance of the lively town of Saint-Palais, with its restaurants, shops and medical facilities, while enjoying the tranquillity of a highly sought-after residential area. Elevated above the town, the property sits on an unusually generous 1.5 hectare plot, suitable for 1–2 horses, offering sweeping, unobstructed views of the Pyrenees. A long entrance driveway leads to the house, flanked by neatly maintained lawns and fruit trees including cherry, peach, apple, and plum. To the side of the house lies a large vegetable garden. A spacious wooden deck surrounds the 10×4 m heated pool, connecting to a sunken jacuzzi via a charming Japanese-style garden. The views from the garden, across the private pastureland, to the rolling Basque countryside and the Pyrenees mountains are stunning!
 
The house measures 148 m² and benefits from modern insulation, double glazing, underfloor heating via a heat pump and a contemporary wood-burning stove - all contributing to its attractive A-rated energy report.
The main entrance opens into an open-plan living area with built-in storage at the entrance, a well-equipped kitchen with a central island and a bright, open-plan living area. This space flows seamlessly onto a generous covered terrace, providing expansive views of the Pyrenees and the rolling Basque countryside. A utility room connects from the east side of the living area and into the integrated garage, with electric vehicle charging point, offering a very useable daily entrance.  
 
The master suite occupies the south to west side of the property and includes a large shower room with WC and a home gym, which could be converted into a study or large dressing room. Two further double bedrooms, a shower room and separate WC, complete the accommodation.
 
This architect led contruction combines quality with thoughtful design and offers the perfect balance of proximity to town amenities and serene country living. Viewing is highly recommended!
