Description

Située au calme absolu à Arcangues, à proximité de la forêt, cette villa d'exception séduit par sa luminosité, ses grands espaces et son orientation plein sud, offrant un cadre de vie privilégié sans aucune perte de surface.

Imaginée par l'architecte Pierre Couteau, elle développe un superbe séjour lumineux de 64 m² ouvrant sur une terrasse de 60 m², avec une vue panoramique sur le golf d'Arcangues. Une élégante cuisine dinatoire de 18,5 m² complète cet espace de vie convivial et baigné de lumière.

La maison propose cinq chambres, dont une suite indépendante en rez-de-chaussée avec dressings, idéale pour recevoir ou préserver l'intimité. À l'étage, deux salles d'eau supplémentaires assurent un confort optimal pour toute la famille.

Un vaste sous-sol de 106 m², comprenant garage et cave, vient parfaire l'ensemble en offrant de généreux espaces de rangement.

Quelques travaux de rafraîchissement permettront de révéler tout le potentiel de cette propriété et d'en sublimer les prestations, constituant également un levier intéressant dans la négociation.

À proximité immédiate de Biarritz, cette propriété rare sur le marché incarne un art de vivre privilégié, entre océan, environnement verdoyant et architecture néo-basque de qualité.

Next steps for moving to France

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

Know your tax obligations

US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
