A Characterful House With A Cosy Garden, In The Shade Of A Tower, At The Foot Of The Pic De

A characterful house with a cosy garden, in the shade of a tower, at the foot of the Pic de Chararnce peak, with uniterrupted mountain views. This large residence is tucked away from view, in a slightly raised setting, behind large fir trees and evergreen oaks. It can be reached via a private, tarmacked, no-through road which leads to a handful of other properties in a dispersed residential neighbourhood. From the road, only the east and west facing façades are visible. The drive leads to two outside parking spaces and the entrance to the garage, whose wide, semi-circular arched door with surrounds made of Gard stone enhances the architectural character of the property. A flight of steps leads up to a stoop.

The hipped-roofed, emblematic tower of the residence, which resembles a family manor, stands on one side. The light-coloured façades, roofs made of brown, local, flat tiles and the well-balanced volumes reinforce the house’s traditional appearance. The rest of the building is topped by a gabled roof with markedly protruding eaves. On the southeast façade, a flight of steps running along the side, lined with a guard-rail made of balusters, leads to the main entrance door, topped by a finely crafted, semi-circular, Gard stone arch.

Along the southeast facade, there is a lush garden lined with white oaks, fir trees and pines, while to the south a low wall marks out the boundary of the property. Opposite the main garden, the south façade possesses a second, more discrete entrance, adorned by a Gard stone arch similar to the main entrance. Further away, behind the property, several steps lead to a private wood, where an intimate setting is made up of two benches, two column bases and a cross. For interior enhancement, the property possesses plenty of promise, providing scope for a restoration project that is worthy of the residence’s architecture.
