Description

A45906CMC65 - Nestled amongst the rolling hills and peaceful countryside of the Hautes-Pyrénées, this charming Gascogne-style home offers the perfect combination of character, tranquillity and authentic French country living.

Dating from around the mid-1800s and situated in the small village of Bazordan, the property enjoys beautiful countryside views from every room, mountain views from two bedrooms and immediate access to some of the area's attractive walking and cycling routes.

Set within a garden of 403m², the house has benefited from a number of important improvements in recent years including a completely new roof in 2021, replacement shutters in 2023, insulation upgrades and new double-glazed patio doors opening onto the terrace. Original beams, wooden floors and period features preserve the character and charm of this authentic country home.

Whether you are seeking a permanent residence, a holiday home, a lock-up-and-leave retreat or an investment property, this delightful property deserves your attention.

LET'S TAKE A TOUR OF THIS LOVELY HOME

GROUND FLOOR

The original rustic double wooden entrance doors open into a welcoming tiled entrance hall. Directly ahead, the attractive wooden staircase rises to the first floor, immediately setting the tone for the warmth and character found throughout the property. Two useful storage cupboards are tucked beneath the staircase.

LIVING ROOM

A traditional wooden door opens into a comfortable living room. The high beamed ceiling creates a wonderful sense of space, whilst the chimney with its wooden mantel and wood-burning stove forms a natural focal point. A window overlooking the garden fills the room with natural light.

This is a room equally suited to cosy winter evenings beside the fire or relaxing summer afternoons enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside.

FARMHOUSE KITCHEN

From the living room, a wooden door leads into the spacious farmhouse kitchen, undoubtedly the heart of the home.

The flooring has been replaced with beautiful irregular solid oak boards that complement the character of the property perfectly. Two windows bring light into the room throughout the day, one overlooking the garden and the other facing the terrace. Exposed beams and the impressive ceiling height continue the traditional Gascogne character.

The fitted kitchen includes storage units, an oven with gas hob and space for appliances. The gas boiler is also located here, whilst a wooden wall cupboard discreetly houses the electrical consumer unit.

Large enough to accommodate family dining as well as food preparation, this room invites you to gather with family and friends, enjoy long meals and create memories together.

SUMMER LOUNGE

A further wooden door opens into one of the property's most versatile spaces.

Currently used as a summer lounge, this room could become a second sitting room, office, hobby room, studio or games room according to your needs.

The room benefits from a beamed ceiling, tiled flooring and attractive double-glazed patio doors installed in December 2023. These open directly onto the large terrace, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

FIRST FLOOR

The attractive wooden staircase, complete with its original metal balustrade, leads to the upper floor. Halfway up, a timber-framed wall adds further character before reaching a hallway serving the first bedroom.

BEDROOM ONE

Located above the summer lounge, this charming bedroom enjoys lovely views across the countryside and towards the mountains beyond. A large exposed beam, wooden flooring and attractive window details enhance the room's appeal.

Adjacent is a shower room comprising a shower, wash basin, WC and extractor fan.

Continuing upstairs, the staircase opens onto a spacious landing with beautiful wooden flooring and a superb beamed ceiling. Large original wooden doors lead into Bedrooms Two and Three, whilst a generous window frames yet another countryside view.

BEDROOM TWO

Situated to the left of the landing, this attractive bedroom features an original wooden floor, exposed beams, countryside views and built-in storage.

An adjoining shower room comprises a shower, wash basin, WC and radiator.

BEDROOM THREE

The largest bedroom in the house enjoys dual-aspect views from two windows, one overlooking the countryside to the front of the property and the second capturing views of the rolling hills and mountains beyond.

Beautiful original wooden flooring, exposed beams and generous proportions combine to create a delightful principal bedroom. Excellent storage is provided by an original fitted cupboard together with a built-in wardrobe and additional cupboards above.

Its adjoining shower room includes a shower, wash basin, WC and radiator.

ATTIC

Practical storage is available within the insulated and boarded loft space.

OUTSIDE

The garden has been thoughtfully arranged to provide attractive outdoor spaces throughout the seasons.

To the front of the house, roses add colour and charm, whilst elsewhere you will find shrubs, fruit trees and a productive vegetable garden. Two terraces provide wonderful places to enjoy morning coffee, outdoor dining or simply relax whilst admiring the peaceful surroundings.

The large side terrace is particularly appealing, benefiting from open views across the countryside and towards the mountains in the distance. Imagine summer lunches with family, evening aperitifs with friends or simply sitting quietly listening to birdsong whilst the sun sets over the hills.

A gravelled area beside the terrace offers an ideal location for a garden shed, workshop or wood store.

To one side of the property, a grassy country lane and footpath provide immediate access to the surrounding countryside, making this a perfect location for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Recent improvements include a completely new roof and chimney repairs in 2021, a new hall radiator, insulation upgrades, replacement shutters in 2023 and new double-glazed patio doors installed in December 2023.

The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating supplemented by electric heating and a wood-burning stove. Hot water is provided by a 200-litre electric hot water tank. The sanitation system is a septic tank installed in 2003.

LIFESTYLE, AMENITIES AND TRANSPORT

One of the great attractions of this property is the balance it offers between peaceful rural living and easy access to amenities, leisure activities and transport links.

Bazordan is a small village surrounded by rolling hills, farmland and woodland. Life here moves at a gentler pace, yet everything needed for everyday living is within easy reach.

For lovers of the outdoors, walking and cycling routes begin directly from the house. Quiet country lanes wind through the surrounding countryside, offering endless opportunities to explore the beautiful landscapes of the Hautes-Pyrénées and neighbouring Gers.

Within approximately thirty minutes you will also find horse riding, golf, canoeing, rafting, canyoning, rock climbing, parascending, mountain biking, lakes for swimming and fishing, and countless hiking routes.

For winter sports enthusiasts, the Pyrenees are easily accessible. Saint-Lary-Soulan can be reached in around one hour, whilst Le Mourtis, Superbagnères and Peyragudes are all within comfortable driving distance.

Weekly markets in nearby Castelnau-Magnoac, Boulogne-sur-Gesse, Trie-sur-Baïse, Montréjeau and Lannemezan provide an excellent choice of local produce, artisan foods and regional specialities.

Nearby restaurants range from traditional village cafés and auberges to the Michelin Guide-recognised Restaurant Sandikala in Galan.

Supermarkets are available in Castelnau-Magnoac, Boulogne-sur-Gesse and Trie-sur-Baïse, whilst Lannemezan, Gourdan-Polignan and Saint-Gaudens offer a wider range of shops and services.

The nearest bakery and mini market is just 3km away in the little village of Balesta.

For those travelling further afield, the mainline railway station at Montréjeau-Gourdan-Polignan is approximately 29 minutes away and provides direct services to Toulouse, Tarbes and Pau. The A64 motorway can be reached in around 22 minutes, whilst Toulouse International Airport and Tarbes-Lourdes Airport are both easily accessible.

If you are searching for a property where life slows down and the countryside becomes part of your everyday routine, this charming Gascogne home deserves your attention. Spend your mornings on the terrace, browse local markets, explore the surrounding hills on foot or by bicycle and return home to the peace and tranquillity of village life.

Equally suited as a permanent residence, holiday home or investment property, the house is ready to move into and enjoy whilst still offering opportunities to add your own style and personality over time.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
