Houeillès, Aquitaine 47420

There are houses that we live in... And others that we choose for the stories they tell. Behind its elegantly designed bourgeois facade, in the heart of a 4,392 m2 wooded park , this remarkable residence built by Basque Spaniards in chalk stone in 1890 embodies the soul of the great family homes of the Southwest: an architecture of character, generous volumes, an art of living focused on conviviality and taking one's time. Offering approximately 330 m2 of living space , this unique property combines heritage elegance, comfortable living, and investment potential in perfect balance. The main house, approximately 180 m2 , offers a warm and authentic atmosphere. Some updating is required. On the garden level , the living spaces are naturally organized around a vast living room with open kitchen , the true beating heart of the house, designed for shared moments, large family meals and the seasons that extend. An entrance hall, a laundry room and a toilet complete this level. Upstairs, the house unfolds a more intimate atmosphere: an office, three bedrooms , one of which benefits from its own shower room, a bathroom and a separate WC make up a comfortable and family-friendly sleeping area. In the converted attic, an elegant lingerie-dressing area adds an extra touch of functionality and discreet refinement. A cellar , as well as two adjoining garages , complete the property. Comfort is ensured by oil-fired central heating , supplemented by reversible air conditioning on the first floor . But it is outside that the property fully reveals its character. The gaze wanders into the garden, the trees, the verdant vistas. In the summer months, life revolves around the summer lounge with fitted kitchen , a true reception area, while the 5 x 9 meter swimming pool invites you to enjoy long summer days, between relaxation, meals with friends and the gentle Gascon evenings. Several outbuildings further enhance the possibilities for use and development. Rare on the market, this property also benefits from a real heritage asset: two independent dwellings currently rented , integrated into a second adjoining part. 2-room apartment? Approx. 65 m2 , with private garden and garage. Current rent: 320 / month. 3-room apartment? Approx. 85 m2 , with back garden and garage. Current rent: 400 / month. This configuration opens up multiple perspectives: family home with additional income, main residence combined with rental assets, inheritance project or character investment . Here, nothing is standard. The property retains that rare quality of homes built at the end of the 19th century: a presence, an identity, a unique way of inhabiting space . A house for those who are looking for more than just living space: a place to live, a history, an address with character .
