Description
HAUTE-GARONNE – Oueil Valley
In the sunniest of the Pyrenean valleys, renowned for its lush pastures of cows and horses, crystal-clear streams, and idyllic landscapes—lies a truly exceptional property. This human-scale château, ideal as a holiday residence or to host a large family, combines the authenticity of a Renaissance building with the rare beauty of an unspoiled mountain setting.
Just ten minutes from Bagnères-de-Luchon (train station, casino, thermal baths, hospital) and thirty minutes from the Spanish border, the property enjoys a privileged location: 1,100 m above sea level, guaranteeing pure mountain air and well-being, in a picturesque village with a Romanesque chapel and a gourmet restaurant.
The main part of the château, dating from the 13th century, is flanked by a square tower and a 16th-century octagonal tower. Its stone spiral staircase is listed as a Historic Monument. This Renaissance masterpiece—rare in the region—has been beautifully preserved and perfectly restored. Two monumental fireplaces, ancient beams decorated with fleurs-de-lis, and mullioned windows give it a unique character. A five-bed dormitory tucked beneath the beams of the square tower evokes the charm of grand family homes.
The interior décor is elegant and refined with a warm mountain spirit, complemented by modern amenities: two spacious living rooms, seven bedrooms, a working Alsatian stove and bread oven, a brand-new Bosch gas boiler with a large underground tank, and high-speed fibre internet.
Facing due south over the Oueil Valley, the château sits at the heart of a one-hectare park with breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks. A charming stream flows near the property, and numerous hiking trails surround the estate. The Superbagnères and Peyragudes ski resorts are just fifteen minutes away, while the Spanish resort of Baqueira is a forty-five-minute drive.
This remarkable property, by virtue of both its architecture and its unique location, offers an exceptional lifestyle: a protected, sun-drenched haven of peace—perfect as a second home or as a grand family retreat that harmoniously blends history, heritage and nature.
