Oloron-Sainte-Marie, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France
Classed as a “bâti ancien intéressant d'un point de vue architectural” (architecturally interesting building) in the local planning scheme, this three-storey, brick-faced colombage building dates back to at least the 15th century. With its façade set on "stilts", the house overlooks the entrance porch of the 11th-century romanesque church of St-Croix and has lovely views of the Pyrénées beyond.
Currently divided into three independent apartments, the building could easily be reconverted into one dwelling, if desired. The current monthly rental income is approximately 1,250€, although with some modernisation and refurbishment, a higher amount could be envisaged.
The three apartments, which are connected by an ancient wooden staircase, are as follows:
Ground floor: a studio apartment of 27m² with a mezzanine level
First floor: a light and airy loft-style apartment of 58m² with a parquet floor and exposed beams
Second floor: a light and airy loft-style apartment of 62m²
The house is situated in Oloron’s historic hilltop area of St-Croix and is ideally situated for reaching the Pyrenean ski resorts to the south and Atlantic coastal resorts to the west. All local amenities, including excellent schools, can be reached on foot, bicycle or using the town's free shuttle bus. There are also regular buses and trains to the surrounding towns and villages and a long-distance bus service (Flixbus) to Toulouse, Lyon and Spain. Local fêtes, markets and outdoor entertainments often take place in the nearby square and the two rivers flowing through the town offer ample opportunities for fishing and water sports.
