EXCLUSIVE TO BEAUX VILLAGES! This property offers an exciting project to revive this idyllic smallholding to its former glory. The main house, a converted barn, has recently undergone considerable refurbishment, including a beautiful, wooden beamed ceiling. It offers the new owners further development possibilities, to become a stylish and characterful home.



In addition, there is delightful cosy three-bedroom

farmhouse, which offers excellent income opportunities having been run as a very successful gîte business for some years and the site itself lends itself to hositng outside events and glamping ( please note - a future owner would need to obtain necessary permission and appropriate business registration).



There is also an attached atelier and a smaller barn which could, with the appropriate planning permission, be renovated to create an extension to the main house.



The buildings are set within 1.6 hectares of land, perfect for livestock, with a very pretty garden, an attractive terrace and swimming pool, a large potager and mini orchard, all of which are waiting to be restored to their former splendour and productivity. The whole complex is framed by views of the rolling forested hills of this wonderful Cathar region of France.



The main house offers numerous reconfiguration possibilities with a large entrance area leading into a spacious open plan kitchen diner with a working open fireplace. From here one direction leads to a flexible living space with an adjoined office/ workroom and the other takes you to a brand new, very solid wooden staircase, up to an area which could easily become a master bedroom suite, complete with en suite and a stunning large feature fireplace.



The farmhouse guest house has a hallway leading into a cosy sitting room and a kitchen/diner which has a separate sizeable butler’s kitchen. From the entrance hall, wooden stairs lead to a generous sized bedroom with an en suite, a small bedroom and a linen room. Further stairs lead to the attic bedroom which has its own toilet and an attached space ripe for development into a shower/bathroom. The guest house has its own private, pretty garden with views of the fields beyond.



The hamlet is just a short drive from a picturesque village renowned for its creative community events and a further short drive takes you to the very busy town of Chalabre, which hosts numerous celebrated cultural events and offers bars, shops, and an hotel, as well as its own weekly artisanal market. The property is very well located, being just a 30 minute drive to prime vineyard country and under and hour from both Carcassonne airport and a ski resort.



This property is perfect for buyers with imagination and flair who are ready for a project and have an appreciation for nature and the benefits of a rural lifestyle. Although perfectly habitable, there is work to be done. But the potential to create a special home for creativity, productivity and wellbeing is just waiting to be realised. A property which needs to be experienced, to appreciate all that is on offer!
