Aquitaine, Gironde, Bazas, France

6 km from the historic centre of Bazas, which is listed as a protected area and is a blend of Gironde tradition and expertise, and close to the Landes de Gascogne Regional Nature Park.
Set in the middle of almost 3 hectares of land, and at the bend of a quiet lane, you'll discover a large character house of 300m², its gîte and outbuildings still to be converted totalling almost 250m².
With a beautiful entrance hall leading to a vast 25m² lounge with mezzanine, all the rooms are spacious and well laid out, with cupboards throughout.
The large 30m² kitchen with its terrace, close to the almost 70m² lounge-dining room with wood-burning stove, can accommodate large families, not forgetting the veranda for cooler evenings.
On the ground floor, two bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms, one of which has a separate entrance. It could be used as a guest bedroom or master bedroom. It could also be used for tourism or professional purposes.
Upstairs, two large bedrooms with two shower rooms and a separate toilet complete the upstairs sleeping area.
There is a large garage, a very practical storeroom and plenty of scope for further conversion.
In terms of energy: the insulation, window and door frames, pellet-fired heating with automatic feed and fireplaces (insert or open in the kitchen) are significant extras.
And on the outside, a large plot of almost 3 hectares (part of which is suitable for swimming pools) opens up a host of possibilities, and two wells are operational and very useful.
