The château, offering approximately 534 m2 of living space on about 1.99 hectares of parkland and grounds, dates back historically to the time of the Templars. It retains Renaissance-era features (mullioned windows, vaulted ceilings, etc.) and includes beautiful reception rooms from the early 19th century. The property once belonged to several prominent figures in the history of Béarn and France, and presents strong commercial potential (weddings, events, holiday rentals, etc.).
The estate also includes a fortified farmhouse of around 565 m2, a 39 m2 apartment, two guest houses (potentially rentable) of approximately 78 m2, former stables of 264 m2, and a chicken coop.
The main residence features 23 rooms, including an entrance hall, 4 living rooms, a dining room, 10 bedrooms, and 4 bathrooms/shower rooms, as well as a dressing room, workshop, laundry room, pantry, and cellar. Many original features have been preserved: Fireplaces, doors, wood paneling, parquet, stone, and terracotta flooring. Heating is provided by gas central heating, wood-burning stoves, and working fireplaces. The roof is slate. The outbuildings, roofed with traditional "picon" tiles, are partially in need of renovation.
The guest house retains its original charm and includes 2 bedrooms.
The park is adorned with numerous century-old trees, including magnolias, chestnut, oak, wisteria, hydrangeas, and roses. A long private driveway leads to the château, offering complete privacy with no overlooking neighbors. Located just 12 minutes from the center of Orthez, its shops, and the tgv station. The motorway is 10 minutes away, Pau is 25 minutes away, and the Basque Coast is only 50 minutes away.
With its many commercial possibilities or as a grand family home, this rare property is sure to captivate you with its history and timeless charm—perfect for an ambitious project.
