Authentic and carefully restored, this château retains its current form from the 18th century (with 15th-century foundations and origins dating back to the 11th century) and preserves many original elements, offering approximately 800 m2 of living space. It features large outbuildings, an orangery, a tack room, a chapel, and a French garden in the courtyard. This rare property in the region includes approximately 1.5 hectares of land in a quiet village midway between Pau and Tarbes, bordering the Gers. It is 40 minutes from the jazz festival in Marciac.
The château stands out with its pediment and perfect symmetry, offering a magnificent view of the Pyrenees nearby. The ground floor includes an entrance hall with a marble floor, 5 living rooms, a dining room, a library, a bedroom, an oratory, a modern kitchen, and a bathroom. The floors feature marquetry or terracotta, with period doors, woodwork, moldings, and fireplaces in each room.
The first floor features a long corridor leading to 7 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a living room, all with original parquet flooring. The garden level has a central corridor leading to the original kitchen with a large fireplace, 2 pantries with stone floors, a laundry room, a wood storage area, a technical room, and an oil-fired boiler room.
Outside, a large outbuilding (144 m2) with a kitchen and a well-maintained orangery allows for receptions, weddings, or other events in a beautiful setting, with the possibility of converting another outbuilding into accommodation. A chapel, a former caretaker's house (to be renovated), a farmyard, and a sauna complete the ensemble. The French garden, inspired by the current owner, features boxwood parterres and topiaries, a medieval vegetable garden, an orchard, and a labyrinth. Statues, a stone bridge over the former moat, and two fountain basins add to the charm. The garden boasts a variety of tree and shrub species.
This property would suit a lover of old stone who appreciates the spirit of the 18th century and can capitalize on its commercial potential or simply enjoy a grand residence for hosting family and friends. Lourdes Airport is 25 minutes away, Pau Airport is 20 minutes away, and the Basque Coast is 75 minutes away.
