Description
Dating from around 1800, the house has been carefully maintained and recently refreshed, retaining many original features while benefiting from significant energy-saving improvements including double glazing, a heat pump and photovoltaic solar panels. Rare for a property of this age, these enhancements provide excellent year-round comfort and remarkably low running costs.
The accommodation extends to approximately 160m² and offers exceptional flexibility.
On the ground floor, an inviting living room (22m²), kitchen (8m²), utility room (7m²), three comfortable bedrooms (10m², 11m² and 17m²) and a shower room with WC are complemented by a private courtyard with independent access. Benefiting from its own entrance and facilities, this level lends itself particularly well to use as an independent apartment, offering excellent Airbnb, guest accommodation or supplementary income potential.
The first floor features a superb 40m² open-plan living space flooded with natural light. A wood-burning stove creates a warm focal point, while beautifully restored colombage walls and exposed beams showcase the property's authentic Gascon character. This floor also includes a fitted kitchen (16m²), a fourth bedroom (15m²), bathroom (11.5m²) and separate WC.
Above, the 70m² attic provides outstanding potential for further development. Subject to the necessary permissions, this space could accommodate additional bedrooms, a studio, home office, creative workspace or even a roof terrace.
Outside, the low-maintenance courtyard provides a private and flexible outdoor area, ideal for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying outdoor dining during the warmer months.
One of the property's greatest strengths is its location. Gabarret is a charming market town ideally positioned on the edge of the vast Landes forest and surrounded by the renowned Armagnac vineyards. The town offers a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, with shops, cafés, restaurants, bakery, pharmacy, schools, sports facilities and the weekly market all within walking distance.
Throughout the year, Gabarret hosts traditional festivals and local events that reflect the rich culture of Gascony. During the summer months, residents and visitors enjoy lively night markets in Gabarret and at the Arènes, where local producers, regional wines, live music and outdoor dining create a wonderfully convivial atmosphere.
The surrounding area is perfect for walking, cycling and horse riding, while wine enthusiasts will appreciate the many Armagnac estates and vineyards nearby.
The renowned thermal spa resort of Barbotan-les-Thermes is just 10 minutes away and attracts visitors year-round for its wellness facilities and therapeutic treatments, further enhancing the property's appeal for seasonal rental opportunities.
Nearby attractions include the beautiful bastide village of Fourcès, the historic royal town of Nérac and Eauze, considered the capital of Armagnac. The rolling landscapes of the Gers are celebrated for their gastronomy, vineyards and relaxed way of life.
