Aquitaine, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Morlaàs, France

Screened by huge wooden entrance doors from its village, this authentic farmhouse, with its neighbouring guest annex, enjoys a totally private situation within 3.6HA of private land and the convenience of being just 25 minutes from the historic city of Pau, its airport and its international school.
Both the main house and its guest annex benefit from fibre optic internet with RG45 cabling and sockets in all the rooms. The property further benefits from an energy efficient heat exchange pump, installed in 2021, providing central heating to the main house and hot water to the house and guest annex.
With its origins dating back to 1836, this deceptively large property offers two generous sized reception rooms (with large fireplaces), a kitchen and the master bedroom (with newly installed en-suite bathroom) occupying the ground floor. Two further bedrooms, a bathroom and a large games room complete the accommodation on the first floor.
The guest annex sits above the garage and workshop and offers an open plan living and kitchen, two bedrooms each with their own ensuite shower rooms.
The immediate gardens are laid to lawn with mature plantings and trees. A brook marks the end of this garden area, where a small bridge connects to the 2.5 HA of fenced pastureland and thereafter to a 1HA block of oak & beech woodland. The land is entirely enclosed with a 1m30 high wired fence and there is a separate entrance to the far end enabling easy access for machinery. A stable block has been erected with planning permission in this area.
The property is ideally situated within a 10 minute drive from the market towns of Lembeye and Morlaas and a 25 minutes drive from the beautiful historic city of Pau with its international school, wide selection of shops and restaurants. The coastal resort of Biarritz; the ski slopes of the Pyrénées and the Spanish border can all be reached within approximately one hours drive. Pau airport 20 minutes; Tarbes / Lourdes airport 40 minutes; Biarritz airport one hour; Bordeaux and Toulouse airports both two hours.
