The grounds are a delight, with established planting, complete privacy and lovely views towards the Pyrenees. The extensive orchard contains an exceptional variety of fruit trees, including pomegranate, walnut, mirabelle, fig, cherry, guava, plum, vineyard peach, pear, quince and apple, together with vines, a herb garden and a beautiful passionflower arbour.

The centrepiece is the 11 × 6 metre natural swimming pool, surrounded by landscaped reed beds and incorporating UV water treatment. Originally a conventional swimming pool, it could potentially be converted back with a new liner and appropriate works.

A generous 94 m² terrace provides ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst the independent poolside studio offers further accommodation for guests.

Energy Efficiency and Improvements
An especially attractive feature is the excellent B energy rating, unusual for a character property of this nature.
Considerable investment has been made in improving comfort and energy efficiency:
2013 – Major renovation, double glazing and installation of a wood-pellet boiler2017 – Roofing works2021 – Treatment against wood-boring insects2022 – Photovoltaic panels and solar water heatingThe photovoltaic installation also provides electricity for charging an electric vehicle. Some glazing remains to be upgraded, notably two French windows in the salon and the artist's workshop.
