Description
The manor house is situated on the outskirts of a town in the Hautes-Pyrénées, in a 2 hectare park, close to all amenities, 5 minutes from the motorway, close to ski resorts, 20 minutes from Lourdes...
Built in 1930 for a wealthy industrialist from Bordeaux, this house has been brought back to its former glory by the current owners, who have undertaken major restoration work over a period of 3 years.
A masterpiece of the Art Deco style, signed by architect Marcel Macary, its style is surprising and seductive. From the vestibule with its wrought iron gate, the lounges and dining rooms - all with marble fireplaces - their original marble-, parquet- or tile floors, the openings onto the park and its pond - this elegant residence is made for a bohemian life in luxurious comfort.
The east wing includes a large kitchen with its wine cellar, one of the two dining rooms, a vast laundry room, a toilet and the service staircase. Between the wings in the heart of the building : another dining room, 3 lounges, a crossing hallway, an office, lift and the grand staircase with its stained glass window. The west wing is reserved for the master's office, with its reception desk and a smoking room-bar. A period Houplain lift is waiting to be put back into service. The grand staircase with its original art-deco stained glass window leads to the upper floors with their large rooms: bedrooms, landing-lounges, vast bathrooms in the art deco style, dressing rooms and game rooms. On the first floor, two covered terraces offer a view of the park and the Pyrenees. The current owners have added modern comforts such as centralized or floor-by-floor shutters, alarm, automatic watering, lighting of the park and the building, highlighting the characteristics of the building.
Numerous terraces, the landscaped park with its majestic hundred-year-old trees, its ponds and fountains, its stream add to the elegance of the property. A comfortable caretaker's house and a garage for 6 vehicles complete this amazing property.
This residence is waiting for Art deco enthusiasts who will fall in love with the manor and will enjoy living and entertaining in unparalleled comfort.
