20 minutes north of Tarbes, 10 minutes from Vic en Bigorre, in a peaceful hamlet, this immaculately and tastefully renovated and attractive farm (133m² hab), currently run as a successful foie gras business, also available without the business. This property is particularly interesting as it is for sale in many guises - the house, outbuildings (736m²) and 1 hectare of land, or with the enterprise (and hand over), or with enterprise and the further land of 9 hectares, or without the enterprise but with the additional 9 hectares.
Entering the courtyard between the farmhouse and the outbuildings you are at once taken by its charm. The courtyard is immaculate, with flowers and shrubs to please the eye, not your normal farmyard !
To the left as you enter the courtyard is the house, originally built in the 18th century and renovated 40 years ago. The front door opens directly into a lovely, well lit living room (5.5 x 5.3 = 29m²), with lots of exposed beams, a wooden ceiling, and fireplace with ‘insert’ (glass fronted, fitted and vented wood burner – very efficient and effective form of heating), and bread oven feature. A sliding door recessing into the wall leads into the large kitchen (4.5 x 5.0 = 22.5m²) with an inglenook style open fireplace, and fitted oak units and granite work surfaces, loads of beams, and a door to the terrace to the east. Steps lead down from the kitchen to a laundry and storage room (3.0 x 5.4 = 16.2m²), and a shower room (2.5 x 1.8 = 4.5m²) and separate wc (1.4m²).
A beautiful wooden staircase takes you to the first floor landing (14.3m²) and hallway, where you find the four bedrooms (12.5m², 9.8m² and 10.4m² south facing, and 6.2m² east facing), a shower room (2.3m²) a dressing room (3.9m²) and another wc (.7m²).
The garden area (1,500m²), to the kitchen side and rear of the house, is very attractive, mainly laid to immaculate lawn, slightly undulating with a couple of mature shade trees (platane, murier, willow) and a swimming pool (8x4m) with a domed cover and terrace around, solar shower and sand filter (1 year old). There is also a swimming pool heating unit, hardly used, on offer.
The outbuildings, totalling 735m², comprise a stone barn facing the house across the courtyard, then to the rear of this are mainly open hangars, forming a ‘U’ with the barn, and currently used for storage and raising ducklings, but offer a lot of alternative potential, for example an equestrian farm, or conversion to gîtes, or both…
The base price of the property includes the house and gardens, the barns and 1 hectare of land to the side of the house and barns, part of which could potentially be built upon.
The Duck Farm – you have the option to purchase the business currently run on these premises, and this comprises all the equipment (coldrooms, sterilizers, commercial cookers, stainless steel units and worksurfaces etc) and the recipes, goodwill etc, and the owners have indicated that they would be happy to assist with the hand over.
Further land, not attached to the house, amounting to 8 hectares, with a river running through, are available in option, plus another separate hectare the other side of the village.
The house is built in local stone on the ground floor and brick on the first, with a tiled roof, the windows are wood framed and single glazed. There are three layers of glass wool insulation in the roof, and heating is electric but very efficient. There is a septic tank. The old barn is built in stone, with the other outbuildings to the rear in breezeblock. The roof is part tiled (on the old barn), the remainder in asbestos.
The alternative prices are as follows :
House, outbuildings and adjoining land (total 1.5 hectares) 420,000 €uros
plus business (hand over, machinery, contacts, advice) +82,500 €uros
plus the other 9 hectares +83,600 €uros
The property is situated in a pleasant village, no more than 10 minutes from the charming market town of Vic en Bigorre with all amenities, 20 minutes north of Tarbes (TGV) and the motorway, 45 minutes from Pau (Ryanair), 1hr 45mins from Toulouse (Easyjet, Flybe, Aer Lingus), the same in the other direction from Biarritz and the Atlantic beach resorts, and to the south from the lower ski slopes, and from Spain, and 3 hours from the Mediterranean.
