Environment ✧ rolling agricultural between base of mountains and plains
Services ✧ all 30mins walk (10mins scooter); supermarket 20mins along lane
Access ✧ station 25mins walk: Toulouse 1h15 (last 8:30pm), Paris 5h30 or overnight; airports: Tarbes 1h transit, Toulouse 1h30
Notes ✧ 30mins walk from large decent village and mainline station
✦ parkland and swimming lake 30mins walk; 30mins by hydrogen train to the base of the mountains (and ski station); horse riding 20mins, climbing 30mins; easy kayaking summer to the town from nearby (groups at other times); tennis court next door but in very bad condition, 2 indoor courts 10mins bike, gym 30mins walk
✦ walks start 30mins along lanes✦ 2200m2 of surrounding garden with a short but lovely colonnade of large trees (possibly lime trees per the name of the lane)
✦ adjoins a small organic farm association thus good for collaboration (likely the sellers thus direct sale possible)✦ solid breeze block building without load bearing partitions thus easly reconfigured, simply needs refitting, could be made prettier with trellacing, a terraced extension with solarium, and some murals; wooden floors reusable; windows ok but all need replacing with double glazing (there's over 72!!)
✦ good opportunity for multiple studios, some potentially with independent access (with new outside stairs next to lane)
✦ half the roof has solar panels
✦ might be a bit close to the railway (100m, 2 trains an hour) but it is partly in a cutting and the south side of the building faces away
