About this property
The Old Customs House
“The Old Customs House” has an unforgettable view overlooking the mouth of the Gironde into the Atlantic Ocean.
This prominent 1930’s house is truly in an unforgettable magnificent panoramic position situated on the edge of the outstanding peninsula village of “Talmont sur Gironde”, classified as “One of France’s most beautiful villages”. You can watch and hear the tide rolling in and out from the kitchen, lounge, bedroom and of course outside on the balcony, terrace and in the garden. At high tide you are only meters away from the water. You really might feel as if you are on a ship on the sea. The house was built on the foundations of the former “Customs House”, therefore, giving title to its present name.
For your holiday pleasure we have just finished renovating a 2 bedroom apartment on the 1st floor with splendid views overlooking the water .We have used only quality products to provide the comfort and style this magnificent house deserves.
Inside you will find a large comfortable living room, fully equipped beautiful built in kitchen-dinning room, 2 double bedrooms, each with their own bathroom or shower room and separate WC, separate laundry room, as well as 2 separate entries on to the terrace and then down to the walled in garden. French TV and DVD Player. There is private parking.
The apartment provides the perfect view for JUST watching. There are many species of wildlife who visit the nature reserve of the white cliffs and the bay just outside the windows and balcony.
