It’s just a short walk to the bakery, the park or the river from this large house located in Condom.  Walk a little further and find the cafes, restaurants, shops, market, and other attractions of this historic old town in the heart of the armagnac-producing region in Gascony

Overview

This solid 19th century stone town house, with its balconies, terrace, garden and garage, offers 180 m² of living space.  A character home, it retains an understated elegant style, with its high ceilings, spaciousness, natural light and curved staircase connecting its three storeys.

Winter comfort is assured with gas central heating and fireplaces, whilst in summer, the thick walls of the house will prevent the house from heating up too much.  There is plenty of space to install a swimming pool and to enjoy the beautiful summer weather, eating and entertaining in the peace of the garden, or on the terrace.          

Other facilities include town gas, town water, mains drainage, telephone, ADSL, electricity, 2 hot water storage tanks and plenty of cupboard space.  All the central heating radiators are made of caste iron.

The house requires redecoration and double glazing.

The property has front and rear access, and the potential exists to develop a second home on the property or an independent gîte (see under Land).
