Description
Architecture traditionnelle inspirée des cabanes ostréicoles vernaculaires, cette villa de 160 m2 s'inscrit sur une parcelle arborée de 1112 m2 au coeur du domaine prisé du Golf de Biscarrosse.<br>Nichée dans une impasse, cette maison en bois construite en 2020, célèbre le pin à travers un jeu chromatique subtil, alternant teintes naturelles à l'intérieur et bardage noir à l'extérieur pour une intégration parfaite dans son environnement. La pièce à vivre qui bénéficie d'une double hauteur devient le coeur battant de la maison. La chaleur du bois y dialogue avec la lumière pour offrir une atmosphère à la fois chaleureuse et intimiste, largement ouverte sur l'extérieur. Les quatre chambres et les salles d'eau en font un lieu résolument familial. La cuisine d'été et une partie des terrasses sont couvertes permettant de profiter de l'extérieur quelles que soient les conditions. Dans leur prolongement, on profite de la piscine chauffée et du jardin paysager. Une cinquième chambre indépendante ainsi qu'un double garage viennent compléter cet ensemble rare.<br>Un refuge familial aux allures de lodge contemporain, au coeur d'un site préservé à deux pas du Lac de Biscarrosse.<br> <br> <br>

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
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.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
