Farmhouse for sale in Nay, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France

The wooden front door opens into a lobby (3m²) (which keeps the draughts out) then into the living room (28m²) to the South East with a huge open fireplace fitted with a wood burner (brand ‘Godin’). To the left, the large kitchen (17m²) also boasts a huge period fireplace and wood burner of the same brand, and which keeps the room really warm in the winter. The kitchen windows face South, and a door at the end leads into a bathroom and wc (6m²).

Going back to the lobby, opposite the door a wooden staircase leads up to the first floor. To the left there is a large bedroom (24m²) to the South East, with wooden flooring.

Access to the balcony is via a landing, and also leads into the first floor living room. It is the first floor which is used as the gite accommodation, and this has an independent access via an external staircase, and can be let as one or two bedrooms. The gites run all year round.

The second floor eave space has not been utilised yet, and it would be possible to convert into more bedrooms or a play room.

On the garden level, a courtyard faces South, in front of the old barn which currently serves as a garage for one car plus a storage area. The gardens are totally enclosed, and going around the garage to the back of the house you find a barbeque area.
