MA959   LARGE STONE BARN FOR CONVERSION WITH SUPERB VIEW ON 1.5 HA

Situated beside a quiet country road on the edge of a small attractive village north of Condom, the barn overlooks the peaceful countryside of Gascony in the northern Gers, and commands fine views.

Bread is delivered to the village daily and the nearest village with shops is 5kms. A little further is the town of Astaffort with all types of commerce.

Nearest airports are Toulouse (1½ hours drive), Bordeaux (1½ hours) and Pau (2 hours). The A62 motorway and the nearest mainline station for the TGV train to Paris are 20 minutes away. The Pyrenees mountains with their ski fields, the Spanish border and the Atlantic coast are approximately 2 hours away.

A current Certificat d’Urbanisme authorises the conversion of this barn and attached buildings into a habitation. The main two-storey building, built in good quality stone, is solid, with thick walls and good roof timbers.  It commands a view because of its high position on the edge of the village.  The ground-floor space alone measures 140m².

It is situated on 1.5 ha of land, serviced with water and electricity.  Mains drainage is planned in 2 to 3 years time. But in the meantime it would be possible to install a septic tank.

Details of the buildings:

Barn

The ground floor is concreted and has probably been used to house cattle. Approximately two-thirds of the first floor flooring is in good condition.  Good oak beams.  On one side of the building, a huge canopy, 13m x 4m, formed by an extension of the roof supported by large posts, would make an ideal outdoor entertaining area.
