About this place
Dominating the lands of Espelette, where the landscape rises and silence reigns, this character residence built in 1750 stands out for its stature and authenticity. Nestled at the foot of Mount Mondarrain, this property of approximately 310 m² occupies a unique vantage point, offering a panorama that stretches westward across the rolling green hills of the Basque Country to meet the blue line of the Ocean on the horizon. ARCHITECTURE AND VOLUMES Living Spaces: A fluid layout featuring 10 rooms, including 6 bedrooms, offering rare modularity for your projects (family home, reception areas...). Materials: Reception areas retain their original features (exposed stone, solid beams), enhanced by understated finishes. Technical Annexes: The house includes a cellar, ideal for storage, highlighting the functional character of this historic home. REMARKABLE DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL Adjoining the main house, a stable of approximately 130 m² remains to be completely renovated. This raw space is a rare opportunity to create a spectacular extension: a vast cathedral lounge, an artist's studio, a wellness area, or an independent guest house. OUTDOOR LIVING The gently sloping grounds of over 7,000 m² feature a swimming pool perfectly integrated into its mineral environment. A character pool-house, designed as a true extension of the residence, allows you to enjoy the serenity of the site from the morning freshness to the golden lights of dusk. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Living area: approx. 310 m² Land: 7,000+ m² Levels: 1 floor (Ground + 1) Outbuildings: 130 m² stable to renovate, Pool-house, Cellar.
