A37162LAC11 - Charming village home with modern comfort and peaceful surroundings – South of France lifestyle at its best

This beautifully restored property combines authentic character, modern comfort, and a peaceful lifestyle in one of the most sought-after regions of southern France. Conveniently located less than 30 minutes from Carcassonne and its international airport (with regular flights to **London, Dublin, Brussels, Cagliari, Porto**, and more), the house is just 45 minutes from Narbonne, about an hour from the Mediterranean beaches, and under two hours from the ski resorts of the Pyrenees**. A truly ideal location to enjoy the South of France all year round.

The village itself is a typical Languedoc wine village, quiet and picturesque, with essential services such as a grocery shop/bar-restaurant and a primary school. It has a well-established English-speaking community, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Just 5 minutes away, Caunes-Minervois offers a full range of shops, restaurants, and stunning historic sites, while **Peyriac-Minervois** provides all the everyday conveniences including supermarkets.

Originally two separate houses now joined into one, this spacious home offers flexibility and privacy, ideal for hosting friends and family while maintaining your own space. It comprises four bedrooms, including a large, light-filled master suite of 28 m²** with en-suite shower room and WC. Two separate lounges with different atmospheres, a modern fitted kitchen with pellet stove, a second shower room, two additional WCs, and a generous landing space currently used as a home office or guest room complete the main living areas.

The 36 m² attic is already insulated, with electricity and windows in place – offering easy potential for further conversion (extra bedrooms, playroom, workshop, office…).

Outside, the 120 m² garden faces south, ensuring all-day sunshine in a completely private setting. The owners install a removable pool each summer, making this a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the Mediterranean climate. Two small workshops provide additional storage or creative space.

Original features have been beautifully preserved: exposed beams, stone walls, old staircase, and solid wood floors. The overall condition is excellent, with a well-maintained roof, anti-humidity insulation, air conditioning in the main bedrooms, and a C-rated energy performance.

This is an ideal property for anyone seeking an authentic French lifestyle, whether you’re a family looking for space and comfort, or a couple dreaming of sunshine, tranquillity, and room to welcome loved ones or develop a future project.
