Description

A37053JAV34 - In the lively village of Olonzac, nestled in the sun-drenched Minervois wine region of southern France, lies a rare opportunity: a spacious apartment on the top floor of a 19th-century château, built in 1891 for a local winegrower and his family.

Once two separate apartments, now seamlessly combined into one generous home, this second-floor property (no lift) stretches across the entire north-facing side of the building — offering natural coolness in summer and views over the surrounding village rooftops.

The apartment is part of a château divided into 10 homes, inhabited by an active and international co-ownership. The building is well-maintained, with recently repainted shutters (2023) and a shared garden with a barbecue area in front. A stone staircase at the front of the château leads up to the main entrance, where you'll find a spacious communal hall with bicycle storage. From there, a grand Caunes marble staircase takes you to the first floor and further up to the top-floor apartment.

Inside, the apartment offers a rare layout: a spacious kitchen of 30 m² perfect for entertaining, a luminous 29 m² living room with high ceilings and skylights (added in 2020), and a central passage with double doors leading to a daybed where you can relax and enjoy the open view.

There are three large bedrooms:

Bedroom 1: 14 m² with a 5 m² en-suite bathroom (shower cabin, toilet, sink)
Bedroom 2: 16 m² with en-suite bathroom (bathtub, toilet, sink)
Bedroom 3: 15 m² with en-suite bathroom (shower cabin, toilet, sink, built-in closet)

The apartment is accessed via two separate entrances on the top floor, illuminated by a skylight.

Heating is electric (radiators).

Parking: no private parking, but easy on-street parking and a free car park just 2 minutes away.

Co-ownership charges: €3615/year.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
