NAVARRENX, Aquitaine, Address available on request

Combining history and authenticity with style and sophistication, this gorgeous picture-postcard maison-de-maître is set in a magical riverside garden!

Ideal for a spacious family home or luxurious holiday home, the 19th-century maison-de-maître of 165m² has an adjoining 18th-century house to renovate (110m²) and a huge adjoining two-storey barn (320m²). The house to renovate and the barn could be used for creating more living space in the maison-de-maître or for a gîte or B&B suites.

Set in a riverside woodland garden of 4,535m², there is ample space to install a swimming pool (permission needed) and for a horse or ponies. There is also an open-sided barn in the grounds where you can relax by the river whilst dining alfresco...

Should you wish to offer B&B accommodation in the maison-de-maître while you renovate the adjoining house, your visitors will love being halfway between the mountains and the sea... And will adore the peace and tranquillity of the rural village setting...
