A beautiful stone house dating from 1883, located at the entrance to a valley in Béarn, on the edge of a forest, with 5,650 m² of land spread across four parcels. The village of Arthez-d’Asson has an elementary school. A supermarket with a café is currently under construction and is scheduled to open before the end of the year. Swimming in the river is just a 5-minute walk away. The house has been partially renovated: approximately 54,000 euros worth of work has already been completed, including the entire kitchen (with brick and marble), the paneling in the workshop, the stove flue, the gas installation, the barn roof, etc. Additional work is expected, estimated at approximately 13,000 euros in the short term (electrical work, bathroom) and 10,000 euros in the medium term (septic tank), plus the house’s roof within the next 5 to 10 years (15,000 to 20,000 euros).
