Languedoc-Roussillon, Aude, Laprade, France

Beautifully restored stone house combining authentic character with modern comfort. Oak beams, exposed stone walls and a slate roof create a timeless and elegant atmosphere.

The kitchen, the true heart of the home, features a central island, sage-green cabinetry and granite worktops, paired with a white ceramic sink. Large windows flood the space with natural light and open onto peaceful views of the garden and surrounding forest.

A key feature of the property, the veranda blends stone and glass in perfect harmony. Bright and adaptable, it offers a welcoming living space throughout the year. The living room is warm and inviting, with exposed beams, a fireplace and a soft, neutral colour palette—ideal for relaxed mountain evenings.

The house offers two spacious bedrooms, each with its own character. One combines stone and white plaster for a light, elegant feel, while the second, in calming sage-green tones, opens directly onto the terraces and garden. Both benefit from high-quality finishes and complete tranquillity. The bathroom features a bathtub, a separate shower and contemporary fittings.

Outside, the garden flows naturally into the forest. Just a short walk away, a magnificent 98-hectare mountain lake offers swimming, sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding. Set at 770 metres altitude, the property enjoys cooler summers than the Aude plain while still benefiting from a pleasant Mediterranean climate.

Located near Carcassonne, in the heart of the Pays Cathare, within the preserved landscapes of the Montagne Noire, this home offers a rare lifestyle combining nature, heritage and refined living.
