PESSAC – AT THE GATES OF BORDEAUX – REMARKABLE 19TH-CENTURY HISTORIC VILLA – SWIMMING POOL – GARAGE – LANDSCAPED GARDEN

At the gates of Bordeaux, in the heart of one of Pessac’s most elegant and discreet residential neighbourhoods, Bordeaux Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to present this remarkable historic property: a characterful home where 19th-century architectural elegance meets the comfort of an exceptionally considered contemporary renovation.

Situated on the town’s most prestigious street, in a protected and highly sought-after residential setting, this villa enjoys complete tranquillity while offering immediate access to shops, public transport, schools and all local amenities. A rare address combining privacy, quality of life and proximity to Bordeaux.

Built in the 19th century, this elegant residence takes its inspiration from the distinctive architecture of the villas in Arcachon’s Ville d’Hiver. Its refined lines, generous proportions and original architectural features bear witness to the craftsmanship of an era when every detail contributed to the grandeur of a building. Behind its characterful façade lies a home that has been entirely reimagined, where period charm meets a renovation of the highest standard.

The owners have undertaken a particularly exacting restoration, selecting noble materials and impeccable finishes while remaining true to the spirit of the property. The result is an elegant, welcoming and decidedly timeless home, perfectly suited to the needs of contemporary family life.

From the moment you enter, the generous proportions and natural light make a striking impression. The views open naturally onto a superb reception area of almost 70 m². The true heart of the home, it offers an easy flow between the various living spaces while retaining a particularly warm atmosphere.

Centred around an elegant fireplace, the sitting room invites conviviality, while the dining room comfortably accommodates both large gatherings and everyday meals. The kitchen is seamlessly integrated into the space, combining contemporary design, high-end appliances and practicality. Designed for entertaining, it becomes a genuine gathering place, where the quality of the materials is matched by the elegance of the fittings.

Numerous windows fill the interiors with natural light throughout the day and create a constant connection with the landscaped grounds.

The ground floor also features a beautiful bedroom with a bespoke dressing room and an elegant en-suite shower room. This separate space offers the convenience of single-storey living, making it particularly well suited to hosting family and friends or providing an additional principal suite.

Upstairs, the layout reveals the full family potential of this residence. Five beautiful bedrooms with comfortable proportions provide everyone with a pleasant, private space. The superb principal suite forms a private apartment, complete with a fitted dressing room and a refined shower room, designed in the style of a grand private residence.

A spacious bathroom with a bath and shower completes this floor, while a separate utility room adds genuine day-to-day convenience. The plentiful built-in storage, well-planned circulation and balanced proportions of the rooms all reflect the care taken with the renovation.

In addition to the main living areas, the property benefits from a generously sized enclosed garage and a cellar—particularly sought-after features in this residential area.

Outside, the property reveals a landscaped garden, thoughtfully designed to create a peaceful and elegant atmosphere. A true green haven, it offers a secluded setting, entirely shielded from view, where a variety of plants and trees create a landscape that changes with the seasons.

At the heart of the garden, the swimming pool naturally becomes the focal point during the warmer months. It blends harmoniously into the landscaped grounds and is complemented by a magnificent natural stone terrace, ideal for dining outdoors or simply enjoying the surrounding tranquillity.

Sandstone-paved paths elegantly define the different areas of the garden, while the integrated irrigation system makes it easy to maintain these carefully tended grounds.

A magnificent cedar of Lebanon towers over the garden and stands as a defining feature of the property. More than simply an impressive tree, it gives the setting a unique identity and contributes greatly to the exceptional charm of this historic residence.

Beyond its architectural qualities, this property offers an exceptionally rare quality of life. Its immediate proximity to Bordeaux, with easy access to the railway station, tram, shops, schools and sports facilities, makes it possible to balance family life, work and the enjoyment of everyday living.

This discreet address will appeal to those seeking a beautiful residence with a distinguished architectural heritage, fully renovated and combining period character with high-end contemporary features.

Its generous proportions, abundant natural light, quality renovation, superb outdoor amenities and unique character make this villa one of the finest opportunities currently available in Pessac.
