A HISTORIC, 17th-CENTURY RESIDENCE EMBLEMATIC OF THE CITY

This 1,000 sqm. (10,764 sqft.) property with its noble, Italian-style frontage that dominates the Saint-Jean-de-Luz harbour and bay was built in 1640 for the basque shipowner Joanot de Haraneder, ennobled by King Louis XIII, to whom it owes its name of Joanoenia. A listed historic monument, it hosted on 9 June, 1660 the wedding of King Louis XIV with the Infanta of Spain, Maria-Theresa of Habsburg, the daughter of the king of Spain.

Spread out over four, 250 sqm. floors, the house, currently referred to as the Infanta’s House, offers many sumptuous, original architectural features and exceptional reception areas, ceiling heights and panoramic views. It includes 3 commercial spaces and 6 apartments (2 per floor). Only a 5-min walk from the train station and 20 mins from the Biarritz airport, it offers a great diversity of development opportunities, be it for investors (and primarily, due to its fabulous location, for hotel groups), cultural projects (e.g. foundation, museum, art gallery) or simply individual home owners.
