Property Description

A Prime Heritage Asset with Significant Value-Added Potential. Located in Saint-Lon-les-Mines, in the heart of the Landes region, the Domaine du Tachoire represents a unique investment opportunity, blending historical prestige with strong development prospects. Built in the 19th century, this former estate of Roger Ducos—Consul to Napoleon Bonaparte and Count of the Empire—is listed in the Architectural Heritage Inventory (Base Mérimée, reference IA40000293), ensuring its status as a rare and recognized heritage asset. A Large-Scale Real Estate Complex Set within a 5-hectare park, the estate is distinguished by the scale and diversity of its built structures: Manor House: Approximately 420 m², featuring two wings across three levels, with volumes perfectly suited for high-end residential or hospitality use. Outbuildings: A collection of structures (longère, a former piggery of over 200 m² currently used as a garage, workshops, and barns) totaling approximately 1,400 m² of registered floor area. These buildings represent a major lever for value creation. Versatile Interior Volumes The main residence offers a functional and adaptable layout: Ground Floor: Spacious reception rooms, kitchen, private quarters, and a cellar. First Floor: Large bedrooms, a library with a balcony, and North and South galleries offering unobstructed views of the park. Second Floor: Approximately 200 m² under a remarkable timber roof structure, providing significant potential for additional development according to project goals. Attractive and Functional Land The grounds consist of 2 hectares of woodland and 3 hectares of meadows. This natural setting enhances the site's appeal for projects requiring space, privacy, and a serene environment, while maintaining the historical identity of the estate. A Multi-Use Investment Platform Due to its configuration, heritage status, and substantial floor area, the Domaine du Tachoire is suitable for various investment strategies: Tourism Hospitality: Development of gîtes or luxury guest houses (chambres d'hôtes). Event Venue: High-end corporate or private events. Private Residence: A character-filled family estate. Property Development: Progressive restoration and valuation of the existing outbuildings. This asset is designed for investors seeking a differentiating property that combines historical significance, heritage value, and long-term economic potential. Note on Condition Compliance: While the manor house and its roof are in good overall condition, significant works are required to meet ERP (Public Access Building) safety standards for any public-facing commercial activity. However, its listing in the Mérimée heritage database may provide specific financial and tax advantages.
