Belle Maison De Village Avec Gîte

Much more than a location, more than a place: It is an exceptional panorama, magnificent views and incomparable visual tableaux opening onto nature.
 
Located in a charming village in the foothills of the Pyrenees, this imposing 19th-century stone and plaster house has been lovingly restored by its current owners. Skillfully blending its original character with modern ecological requirements, it has benefited from an exemplary renovation. Thanks to its solar panels with 40 battery storage, its high-end dual-system boiler (wood and pellets, with 3-ton pellet silos) for complete flexibility and low operating costs, its double glazing throughout, and its high-performance insulation, this house offers exceptional energy efficiency without sacrificing its character or comfort.
Nestled beside the village church, at the end of a quiet lane, the property unfolds behind traditional stone pillars and wrought-iron gates. The perfectly landscaped garden surrounds a home where magic takes hold from the moment you step inside. Peaceful, private, and full of charm, this impressive residence abounds with original period features and offers breathtaking panoramic views—so captivating that you may never need a television again. Better still, the local inn is just a short walk away, offering a delicious alternative to home cooking.
The main house offers spacious and versatile accommodation centered around a superb open-plan living area, comprising a modern kitchen with a gas range, a living room with a wood-burning stove, and French doors opening directly onto the terrace, revealing magnificent views of the mountains, deer, and the autumn rutting season. The original staircase, high ceilings, and authentic period details create a wonderful impression of timeless elegance from the moment you enter. The ground floor also offers functional and creative spaces: a large laundry room, a workshop/garage, and an exceptional stone-walled office, ideal for an artist’s studio or professional practice. A wine cellar is also available in the basement and is accessible from this level.
The ground floor also includes a large laundry room, a workshop/garage, an exceptional office fitted out in stone or an artist’s studio, plenty of storage space, and steps leading down to the wine cellar and battery room.
The first floor comprises three spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom, complemented by original wooden floors and marble fireplaces. The landing leads to a balcony overlooking the gardens and surrounding peaks.
The top floor accommodates two additional large bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, as well as a smaller guest room or dressing room.
A separate second property, currently run as a successful gîte, offers ideal guest accommodation. Full of rustic charm, it includes a covered terrace, impressive cathedral ceilings, exposed beams and woodwork, a practical kitchen, and a wood-burning stove essential for cozy winter evenings.
Outside, a hedge of over 200 trees has been planted and encircles the property. The species were chosen to blend harmoniously into the Pyrenean ecosystem, supporting local wildlife. There is parking in the inner courtyard, as well as mature landscaped gardens with palm and fruit trees, a swimming pool, and a garden shed reminiscent of a tiny house. The garden also includes two greenhouses for self-sufficiency and is ideal for creating a permaculture vegetable garden. A video surveillance system is installed around the house with notifications sent to your phone. The estate includes three building plots, offering unique development or land appreciation potential in the heart of the village. Despite its tranquil setting, this property is located 5 minutes from the Sunday market in Arbas, 15 minutes from the town of Aspet with its twice-weekly local produce market, and 30 minutes from the ski slopes. Saint-Gaudens or Saint-Girons are easily accessible, just 1 hour and 10 minutes from Toulouse and its airport. A haven of peace for the future, living here means choosing to free yourself from global energy fluctuations while enjoying an exceptional and abundant quality of life.
A rare opportunity for those looking to escape the urban bustle for a comfortable and eco-friendly refuge.
