10 minutes from the city center of Pau, at an elevation of 350 meters, we offer this small château set on 12 hectares of land with additional outbuildings. A 600-meter-long driveway leads from the main road to the stately estate, nestled within a green haven. The château has a surface area of 750 m², while the outbuildings measure 500 m² and 230 m². The gatehouse offers an additional 50 m². A pool is also included, all in a peaceful setting with breathtaking views of the Pyrenees.
The château dates back to the 16th and 17th centuries and stands out with its refined details, a tower extension, decorative façade, and stunning panoramic location. Additionally, with permission, 3 hectares of land could be replanted with vines under the ‘Jurançon contrôlée’ appellation.
