For sale pyrenees near aspet stone family house with gites

For Sale: House with gites near Aspet, €549,000. This property is now sold subject to the usual contracts and this site will be withdrawn on completion.

The house sits in an elevated position with outstanding views in all directions, particularly to the snow capped Pyrenees which look magnificent in winter and spring. We have been resident in this property for over six years and have carried out extensive restoration to both the inside and outside of the house. The interior has been refurbished but with many original features retained; now providing an artisan fitted kitchen of solid oak with granite worktops, leading to the day room fitted with a Jotul 600cm wood burner; a large 'grand salon' and a downstairs bedroom /storeroom with a separate w.c. and bathroom/utility adjoining. There is an entrance room to the back of the house which leads to an inner hall and a large hall to the South facing front, with a 1.2m wide new oak staircase rising to the first and second floor. There are four very large double bedrooms on the first floor and three modern large bathrooms en-suite (one shared). The top floor provides a large study room that would be very easy to make into a sixth bedroom. All the floors are oak or chestnut except one bedroom which is carpeted. The bathrooms are fully tiled and have modern suites. All except three of the windows have been replaced with hardwood double-glazed units and most of the shutters are new. The walls have been renovated to a high standard, showing the original high quality exterior stone work. The property is central heated by a new oil fired boiler with a pressurised hot water system. Insulated to a high specification (C rating), with all ceilings and most of the walls having insulation and additional insulation in the roof space, the house is warm in winter and cool in summer. The house, probably dating from the mid 1800's, was built to a high standard with square well proportioned rooms and high ceilings. It now has a total land area of just under half a hectare which is all garden. The three gites are separate from the main house and have their own garden. They could be let, short or long term, to provide an income or be available for friends/family. The gardens are a feature of the house with many mature trees and shrubs, with private sunny and shady areas as well as a small pool. The views are outstanding, particularly to the South and West. The gites are fully equipped and ready to rent and many of the fixtures and fittings are available with the house, as well as a some furniture if required. The property is fully alarmed and very secure. The main house has been designed internally so that it could easily be used as a B&B if desired with up to four letting bedrooms, still leaving accommodation for the owners. There is scope for further developement as there is a large room leading from the upper patio that could be used as another 'gite' or any number of other uses; the newly re-roofed barn that could be turned into living space; and a large storage area above the garage. There is also potential for storage or further development in the loft area of the house.

This is a unique property with many attractions and from which a substantial income could be derived if required.
