Sold! Mirande Beautifully renovated Gascon farmhouse with 3 bedrooms, terrace/balcony, garage, workshop, covered terrace & independent barn/hangar, pond set in lovely garden of 3 945m2 – quiet location, lovely rural and mountain views

Thoughtfully renovated, this lovely home was apparently built as early as the 1600s with a visible date stamp of 1768. The property is south facing and looks out to the countryside and mountains. Modernised whilst retaining many period features, it now offers a comfortable double-glazed house with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside and Pyrenees in a quiet hamlet on the outskirts of a rural village. Mountain views can usually be seen from the majority of the house.

A new roof was put on the whole property in 2006 and it has electric heating, independently programmable radiators and underfloor heating in main bathroom. The septic tank conforms to current regulations. The garage is to the west of the property and a covered terrace in the garden is the perfect area for entertaining, looking out to the pond, countryside and mountains. There is also an independent barn with hangar attached to the east of the house, large enough to park a camping car.
