Property cap-ferret - 9 bedrooms - 497m²

CAP FERRET – AN EXCEPTIONAL HISTORIC PROPERTY – A UNIQUE ART NOUVEAU VILLA.

Exclusively, in the heart of Cap Ferret, just a stone’s throw from the beaches of the Bassin and the ocean, this rare estate is one of the most unique properties on the peninsula.

Built in 1906, this historic villa, considered to be the first building in Cap Ferret, offers approximately 450 m² of living space and has undergone a complete restoration carried out with respect for its architectural identity.

The renovation, carried out to the highest standards by a decorator accredited by the French Monuments Historiques, has preserved and enhanced remarkable heritage features, whilst incorporating contemporary technical specifications suited to modern living.

The main villa is distinguished by the richness of its interior décor, characteristic of the Art Nouveau style.

Period stained-glass windows, wood panelling, decorative panels, drapery and chandeliers all contribute to creating a unique, cohesive and refined atmosphere.

The reception areas retain strong structural features, such as a monumental carved fireplace and original decorative pieces, which contribute to the property’s character.

The ground floor features several reception areas, including a lounge with a fireplace, a second Art Nouveau-style lounge, a dining room centred around a sculpted fireplace, as well as a separate kitchen and its adjoining areas.

The windows and stained-glass panes ensure a constant supply of natural light whilst enhancing the sense of space.

The upper floors are dedicated to the sleeping quarters.

The first floor features four bedrooms, several of which have en-suite bathrooms and access to terraces.

Some offer partial views of the Bassin.

The second floor houses two further bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, one of which overlooks the Bay.

On the top floor, a converted observation deck provides additional space, extending onto a panoramic terrace overlooking the Arcachon Bay from a height of approximately 14 meters.

This vantage point is a rare feature in the area.

The garden level offers additional spaces dedicated to leisure and amenities, including a home cinema, a billiards room, an office, a small bar, a laundry room, a wine cellar and storage areas.

The property benefits from high-performance technical systems, including a heating system powered by heat pumps, as well as soundproofing work carried out in the main rooms.

In addition to the main villa, the property comprises several outbuildings that significantly expand its potential uses.

An outbuilding of approximately 47 m², requiring conversion, as well as two semi-detached houses of approximately 87 m² each (construction to be completed), offer considerable development potential, allowing for the creation of separate guest accommodation.

Ultimately, the complex could accommodate up to 15 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, offering a capacity that is particularly rare in the area, suitable for a large family home, a prestigious guest house or an exceptional heritage project.

Set on landscaped grounds of approximately 2,400 m², the property benefits from a comprehensive outdoor setting.

The facilities include several terraces, a heated swimming pool, a jacuzzi, a sauna, as well as various areas dedicated to relaxation and entertaining.

The fully landscaped garden also features an automatic watering system supplied by a borehole.

The property also features a range of comfort and security amenities, including parking spaces, automated gates, a CCTV system, an alarm, fibre-optic broadband and pre-wiring for an electric vehicle charging point.

Its location is a major asset, offering immediate access to the beaches of the Bassin (approximately 100 metres) and the ocean (approximately 300 metres), in a central and sought-after area of Cap Ferret.

The property has significant heritage value, enhanced by its historic character, the quality of its restoration and the potential for listed status.
