A35760MLR40 - A RARE SETTING IN THE HEART OF LES LANDES – NATURE, CHARM & PROJECT POTENTIAL

Located in the Landes department (40), in the charming village of Rion-des-Landes (approx. 3,000 inhabitants), this remarkable property is nestled in the heart of the historic and natural region of Les Landes de Gascogne—renowned for its vast pine forests, unspoiled nature, and rich rural heritage.

Set within an airial—a traditional open glade typical of the Landes—this rare gem is surrounded by forest and bathed in tranquility. Once used for farming and livestock, these clearings now offer an exceptional lifestyle, blending preserved nature with peaceful living.

Ideally situated just 30 minutes from Dax, 10 minutes from the A63 motorway, and less than 10 minutes from the Arjuzanx Lake beach, the property is also just 5 km from essential shops and services.

This beautifully restored Landaise estate harmonizes the authenticity of traditional architecture with a forward-thinking spirit. Noble, period materials—exposed beams, solid wood floors, and traditional cladding—create a warm, timeless ambiance that captivates from the first moment.

More than a character home, this is a true living and creative space designed to host both personal and professional projects. Its generous volumes, flowing layout, and deep connection to nature offer a rare sense of freedom and serenity.

The estate has been renovated with an eco-conscious approach, including solar panels and two natural wells and a borehole, which supply an automatic irrigation system for easy, sustainable landscape maintenance.

Comprising three independent buildings, once dedicated to agriculture and now thoughtfully transformed, the estate supports a wide range of potential uses:
• Residential – primary or secondary home
• Tourism – guest house, group accommodation, or gîte
• Professional & Creative – artist studios, office spaces, seminars, workshops
• Wellness & Retreat – yoga, meditation, holistic healing

This is a place that inspires and adapts—a sanctuary for those seeking to combine quality of life, environmental values, and the freedom to create, all within a peaceful and natural setting.

A rare opportunity in Nouvelle-Aquitaine for discerning buyers in search of charm, space, and purpose.
