The accommodation on this floor can be accessed independently from the exterior or via the staircase down from the entrance hall to the house.
The previous owner rented this space as two apartments or one apartment and two B&B rooms – each having their own external access via the terrace and patio doors and each able to be closed securely from the rest of the house.
The two doors at the bottom of the staircase leading down from the ground floor can be locked thereby ensuring the private accommodation is completely private and secure.
I will describe this accommodation as 2 apartments:
APPARTMENT ONE (2 BEDROOMS)
The apartment has an independent meter for central heating and hot water and the following accommodation:
LIVING ROOM
This open plan room (57 m2) has a tiled floor and is divided into 4 living spaces as follows:
• Lounge area with patio doors directly out on to the south facing terrace with incredibly beautiful views of the mountains.
• Dining area again with patio doors leading out to the terrace.
• Open plan kitchen with an oven, fridge, dishwasher, induction hob, extractor hood and a new sink. There are lots of cupboards and the exterior of the cupboard has a breakfast bar, ideal for chatting whilst the food is being prepared and for eating breakfast together.
• Double bedroom (12 m2) which has a retractable room divider to provide privacy.
• To the rear of the bedroom is a shower room with shower, washbasin, tiled floor, partially tiled walls, bidet and WC
• Bedroom 2 is currently used as a laundry room and storge room.
APARTMENT TWO (TWO BEDROOMS)
The second apartment could be changed slightly to become two independent B&B rooms, or a smaller apartment with one B&B room.
To keep it as an apartment you would need to add a kitchen.
Again the same principle works. You can enter this accommodation via the patio doors from the terrace or via the internal staircase (again the door can be locked to give complete privacy to whomever is living on the ground floor.
The accommodation consists of the following rooms which could provide 2 B&B rooms to rent:
• Bedroom 1 (18 m2) has large patio doors opening to the terrace with the same beautiful views. A perfect way to wake up each morning.
• Bedroom 2 (18 m2) is a double bedroom with patio doors like Bedroom 1.
• Separate WC (2.00 m2)
• Large shower room with wall cupboards, shower, wash basin, bidet, and towel radiator. This room could be divided into two smaller shower rooms.
A door can be created from Bedroom 2 into the farthest side and larger part of the shower room with a shower, WC, and wash basin. The other half could have a shower and wash basin only as there is a separate WC in the hallway that guests or family can use. This would allow the rooms to be B&B rooms, each with its own bathroom and shower room.
Lastly there is a gym room (approximately the same size as the bedrooms) which is accessed from the terrace directly or via Bedroom 2. This would provide a completely independent gym or games room for all guests.
Here again, a partition can be installed in bedroom 2 to create a corridor leading to this 3rd room.
BASEMENT
Under the property there is a large basement area partly rock that can be used for storage.
One part is used to store wood for the insert fire in the first floor living room.
There is a large cave for storing wine.
GARDEN
4200 m2 of land with a gate at the bottom allowing access from the lane.
The garden is south facing so has sunshine all day, ideal for a large dome greenhouse for growing vegetables etc.
The garden has the following fruit trees:
• 6 fig
• An entre hedgerow of kiwi
• 3 cherry
• 1 peach
There is a “Pigeonniere” at the top of the garden set on sold foundations adding a nice ornate touch to the property.
There is the potential to install solar panels if you wish on the land subject to planning permission.
Next to the garden is another plot of land that runs across the bottom of the garden and to the side. This is jointly owned by the owners of this house and the neighbour. It is possible to purchase ths land if you wish to own it outright.

The department of Haute-Garonne borders onto Spain in the south and forms part of the French Midi-Pyrénées region and is surrounded by the departments of Hautes-Pyrénées, Gers, Tarn-et-Garonne, Tarn, Aude, Ariège and the Val d’Aran in Spain.
The Garonne river rises from across from the Spanish border, descending for some 500km down through the Pyrénées mountains, via Toulouse into the Atlantic ocean at Bordeaux, leaving in its wake, beautiful lakes, powerful rapid waters and challenging peaks to explore.
In the summer, the region offers an amazing choice of activities including rafting, potholing, paragliding , climbing, golf, fishing, horse-riding, gliding, adventure parks, fabulous hikes, mountain bike and of course many Tour de France climbs for cyclists and bikers. Visitors are always amazed at the choice of activities, tourist attractions and friendly welcome on offer here right in the centre of the Pyrenees.
The proximity to Spain is a lovely extra little touch with the opportunity to experience two different cultures and sample the local tapas, sangria and rioja wine.
Toulouse is the main, international airport for the region, with daily flights to the UK and other European and long-haul destinations and Tarbes/Lourdes airport offers access in under an hour.
Motorway access to the villages is easy with routes from Bordeaux, Paris, Lyon and Marseille and you can also cruise overnight via ferry to Santander and Bilbao in Spain.
There is a choice of excellent ski resorts in the area catering for all abilities, including; Luchon Superbagneres (the second ski resort to open in France after Chamonix) with its excellent après-ski facilities. Imagine relaxing after a day’s skiing in the thermal spa, having a massage before enjoying a lovely meal with friends or even an English film at the little cinema in the centre of town! In 1854 Luchon received the title of "Queen of the Pyrenees" and it is easy to see why with its beautiful boulevard and impressive villas, spa, casino and mansions.
The resort of Le Mourtis is really geared towards families, looking for the facilities and activities that ensure their children are happy and entertained. Situated just 10km from St Beat, an historical Pyrenean village famous for its marble an just 5 minutes to the border of Spain.
If you’re a more advanced skier or snow-border, you will enjoy the resort of Peyragudes with its Vallee Blanche and fabulous snow record. You can drive to the resort or take advantage of the free bus from the centre of Luchon.
Bourg d’Oeuil is a charming small village nestling at the bottom of the Oueil valley and is the starting point for a variety of hiking trails. In Winter the village is a favourite for those looking to alpine ski and participate in snowshoeing.
And whilst here, why not sample skiing in Baqueira/Beret in Spain – a favourite with the Spanish Royal family.
