Characterful 19th-century house in the heart of the city

Just steps from the beaches, the train station, and the vibrant heart of Arcachon, this characterful 1875 residence enjoys a rare and highly sought-after location. Nestled in a peaceful residential area, it offers an exceptional lifestyle where everything is within walking distance, combining the tranquility of the seaside with the convenience of everyday life.

Behind its historic facade, the house reveals warm and inviting spaces where the charm of the past has been carefully preserved. Original parquet floors, French-style ceilings, and marble fireplaces speak to the soul of the place, while generous windows allow natural light to flood in. The reception areas are arranged around a convivial and authentic atmosphere, enhanced by a high-performance wood-burning stove that elegantly accompanies the seasons. The kitchen, a true link between heritage and modernity, combines the character of exposed brick walls with contemporary appliances. It opens generously onto the garden through large bay windows, blurring the lines between indoors and outdoors. The sleeping area comprises three comfortable bedrooms, some with cleverly integrated mezzanines thanks to the generous three-meter ceiling height. Two bathrooms with toilets complete this space, designed for the comfort of family life or entertaining guests. A fully converted outbuilding further enhances the property's versatility. An independent space for hosting family and friends, an office, a workshop, or a professional practice, it adapts to all lifestyles. An authentic stone cellar completes the ensemble and recalls the historical character of this unique residence. Outside, the landscaped garden provides a true haven of greenery, sheltered from view. A perfectly positioned wooden terrace invites you to enjoy long, sunny days, while the stone pathways elegantly highlight the distinctive architectural style of the Arcachon Basin. Beyond its timeless charm, this property also stands out for its forward-looking approach, thanks to a solar panel installation generating an annual income of approximately EUR2,000, offering a rare balance between heritage, contemporary comfort, and energy efficiency. A discreet address where the authenticity of a 19th-century residence blends harmoniously with today's requirements. ENERGY RATING: D / CLIMATE RATING: D.
