Nogaro, Midi-Pyrénées 32110

a little over an hour and a half from Bordeaux International Airport, this beautiful château dating from the Napoléon III era is situated. With 6 spacious bedrooms, 1000 m² of stone dependencies and 12 hectares of land, this estate offers enormous potential to create a thriving activity. It is also an ideal opportunity for any equestrian project, with 12 hectares of land of which 10 hectares are flat and fenced. The Pau Hippodrome, which hosts each year a major international event, the Five-Star Eventing Competition, is less than 60 minutes by car. Solid and substantial, the Manor is filled with a multitude of architectural details evoking the French Second Empire style. Approaching the property along a green driveway, the striking exterior gives way to a warm and welcoming atmosphere that invites you to explore the interior. With an area of about 400 m², the accommodation is spread over two levels. On the ground floor, a central hallway leads to 4 reception rooms, each with an period fireplace and decorative plaster ceilings. Two kitchens, a shower room, toilets and a laundry room complete the ground floor. At the top of the wooden staircase to the upper floor, there is a large landing leading to the art room and its period glass partition. 6 bedrooms, a large library, 2 bathrooms and a separate toilet are also on this floor. From there, one can access the vast attic space and the former staff bedrooms which offer great potential for additional accommodation. The roof was replaced in 1997, and a recently installed wood pellet central heating system (8-ton storage capacity) also provides hot water. The château is in good condition, but would benefit from a refresh. The grounds consist of 2 hectares of gardens with a number of elegant trees and a decorative pond. Fragrant wisteria adorns the south-facing terrace. The remaining 10 hectares run at the rear of the property. The vast stone dependencies comprise an old winery, two horse stalls, a workshop and a garage. The buildings form a handsome U shape and could be transformed into a reception venue if one were looking to create a hospitality project.
