Built in 1648, this unique townhouse is one of the most historic riverside buildings in the centre of Salies-de-Béarn.

The townhouse is currently used as a cosy holiday home, but would be ideal as a permanent home for a couple, a small family or for first-time-buyers. In addition, the property is completely ready to move into because it is being sold fully equipped and furnished!

The property could also be used as a gîte for holiday rentals or even rented out on a long-term basis (subject to energy efficiency regulations). There are also many tourists visiting this beautiful area, who hope to book delightful self-catering accommodation for short breaks, including people visiting Salies-de-Béarn's famous thermal baths for spa breaks.

The townhouse is located in the historic riverside part of Salies-de-Béarn. From the street, a shared entrance door opens into a small hall, from where a few steps lead up to the property's front door.

The front door opens into a light and airy entrance hall with built-in cupboards and a wooden staircase up to the top floor of the house. The entrance hall could be used as a small office area, a nursery, a playroom, a sleeping area for guests...

From the hall, a door opens into a lovely bedroom (11m2), which has views of the river. On the other side of the hall, there is a shower room with a WC (2.5m2).

From the entrance hall, the staircase leads up to a lovely open-plan, loft-style sitting room with a fully equipped galley kitchen, an open fireplace and access out to a south-west-facing balcony overlooking the river. There is also a small shower room behind the kitchen area. Please note that the rooms on this floor have sloping ceilings.

This property also has a river-level room (22m2), which has been equipped as a summer kitchen and a wine cellar, although it does occasionally flood. The room can, of course, continue to be used for most of the time and would seem to be an ideal space for drying clothes, for example, and for storing surfboards, watersports equipment...

Whether you are planning to use this wonderful townhouse as a permanent home, a holiday home, a pied-à-terre or an investment property, its charm will delight you! And not only is it being sold fully equipped and furnished, so you can move in straight away, but you can also look forward to immediately enjoying the superb views from the top-floor balcony, as well as being able to dine alfresco all day long... Sunny breakfasts, long, lazy lunches, romantic suppers under the stars...

This amazing townhouse is truly a rare and beautiful gem!
