Languedoc-Roussillon, Aude, Coursan, France

A41782CYV11 - This character property, dating from around 1900, offers generous living spaces, a fluid layout and rare potential for enhancement in the village centre. Formerly a notary’s office, it was fully converted into a residential home approximately 2.5 years ago and is now a welcoming family house, ready to move into.

Upon entering, a small hallway leads, through an elegant glass door, into the main living area. The open-plan kitchen is positioned on the street side, while the spacious, light-filled living room faces the rear of the house, providing a calm and comfortable setting. The space benefits from excellent natural light and a harmonious flow.

A beautiful stone staircase in Pierre d’Armissan connects the floors. From the ground floor, there is also access to a very large cellar used as a utility room, storage area and workshop. It includes an independent rear exit, allowing access from the back of the property without passing through the main street – a particularly practical feature for family life.

The first floor offers a ceiling height of approximately 2.75 metres and includes several bedrooms, a bathroom with bathtub and double washbasin, a room currently used as a home office (ideal for remote working) and a separate WC. Original doors add authentic charm, while recessed spotlights provide discreet, modern lighting.

The second floor features a comfortable parental suite with reversible air conditioning, built-in storage and an open-plan bathroom with bathtub, double washbasin and WC. Original doors remain here as well. This level also includes a room already fitted with electric heating that could become an additional bedroom, along with areas suitable for creating a Tropezian roof terrace – a feature that would significantly increase the property’s value and rarity in the centre of Coursan.

The roof is approximately 3 years old. Heating is provided by an oil-fired system installed about 3.5 years ago. Hot water is supplied by two tanks (50 L for the kitchen in the cellar, 200 L for the bathrooms), heated during off-peak hours. The property is equipped with a Linky meter, fibre-optic internet, RJ45 sockets in every room, double glazing (PVC on the street side, wooden frames at the rear) and smoke detectors. Two original fireplaces are visible but no longer functional. There are currently no solar panels, although installation would be possible.

The property is connected to the mains drainage system. While there is currently no outdoor space (no garden, terrace or balcony), the house offers a genuine opportunity to create a Tropezian roof terrace – a highly sought-after feature that would provide a rare outdoor living space in the village centre.

The house is a terraced property, attached on both sides. There is no private parking or garage, but parking is easy and consistently available in the immediate surroundings.
