Properties in S.W. France particularly in the Gers, Landes and Pyrenees Atlantic are some of the most diverse and interesting in the whole of the country, which is of course one of the beauties of buying in France and particularly in the south west.

Throughout the Gers, Landes and Pyrenees Atlantic we see architecture of such different stlyes and type from the traditional Landaise to the original B?arnaise. The ever favourite L-shaped farmhouse, the wattle and daub of the typical colombage country cottages.

Added to the variety in property, you have in these regions, not only the French influence but also a distinct influence coming from the Basque and Spanish cultures.

It is not only the properties but the whole ambiance of these areas which has so much appeal. The beauty of these districts with the Pyrenees dominating the sky-line in the south and the sandy beaches of the west coast bringing the warm waters of the Atlantic, an idyllic setting for any-one tired of the hustle and bustle of overcrowded city dwelling.

Many people choose to settle in this beautiful part of France simply due to the fact that whether in the Midi Pyrenees or Southern Aquitaine they will be living only a short drive from from either the ski slopes or the sandy beaches of the coast.

For those who move to set up their homes in the areas of the Landes, Gers or Pyrenees Atlantic many have found the possibility of finding work in the form of providing g?tes and B&B accommodation for travelers.

These areas are serviced by several International airports and only a few hours drive from major ferry terminals, making them easily accessible from anywhere in the world. With increased technology particularly computer technology there are more and more people choosing to benefit from working from home in France and traveling back to their homeland, only occasionally, in order to continue their businesses.

Properties are still superb value in these regions and purchasers are often amazed at exactly what value they get in the properties they are purchasing. During the last decade there has been a revitalization of property many French, Dutch and English have ploughed time and money into renovation and restoration work and whereas at one time old ruins could be picked up for a snip, this is no longer the case.
