Description
Full of historic charm, this substantial home stands out for its volumes, natural light, and timeless architectural features. It lends itself perfectly to a large family home or to a hospitality project such as a guesthouse or gîte (subject to the necessary permissions).
A sweeping external staircase leads to one of the property’s most distinctive features: an elevated wraparound terrace, ideal for outdoor dining while overlooking the surrounding greenery. This sense of elevation and openness gives the house a rare perspective for such a central location.
The first floor opens onto a spacious entrance hall and corridor, leading to a farmhouse-style kitchen with direct access to the terrace, a large double reception room, and a second generous lounge. A private guest suite with its own bathroom completes this level.
On the second floor, the layout is well balanced: a right wing with two bedrooms and a bathroom, and to the left, a corridor serving three further bedrooms and an exceptionally large bathroom, all enjoying views towards the surrounding hills.
The ground floor, full height throughout, offers extensive practical space including storage areas, a large workshop, and a garage. Outside, a good-sized garden and an additional garage further enhance the property.
The town itself is lively and well-served, with shops, restaurants, banks, and a vibrant calendar of events including festivals, live music, and sports. It benefits from a train station and bus links to Carcassonne and Perpignan, with Carcassonne airport less than an hour away. Toulouse, Béziers, and Girona are all within easy reach. Both the Mediterranean coast and the Pyrenees (for skiing) can be reached in around an hour. Locally, you’ll also find a swimming lake, white-water rafting and kayaking, as well as active walking and running communities. Schools, medical services, and supermarkets are all close at hand.
Offering space, charm, and a truly special setting, this is a property that needs to be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Contact us today to arrange a viewing.
