6-Bed Maison de Maître with Gîte and Pool, Boussan, France, €560,000
Pyrenean Maison de Maître
About this property
Tucked into a sleepy medieval hamlet in the rolling foothills of the Pyrenees, this substantial Maison de Maître dates from pre-1850 and comes with the kind of credentials that make estate agents reach for their best adjectives. Seventeen hectares of woodland and pasture, two barns, a sparkling 10x5m pool, and a one-bedroom gîte with letting potential: this is less a house and more a self-contained world. Population: you, and two very fortunate neighbours.
Inside, the property has been lovingly restored at considerable expense, preserving marble fireplaces, ornate plasterwork, exposed beams, and collombage walls that nod to its noble past. A stylish country kitchen opens onto a generous open-plan living and dining space, with French doors to the sun terrace and a wood-burning stove for cooler mountain evenings. Gas central heating handles the rest. Recent investment includes a new roof, kitchen, and pool liner, so the heavy lifting has already been done.
Aurignac's market town is five minutes away, Toulouse airport is an hour, and the ski slopes are equally close. Whether you're drawn by the equestrian potential, the gîte income, or simply the prospect of owning your own woodland in southern France, this property makes a compelling, rather beautiful case for itself.
