Description
This former presbytery dates back to the 15th century and comes with something rarely found on the market: its own dovecote. Built in stone, the house offers up to three to four bedrooms, including a striking master suite with its own shower room and walk-in closet, alongside two bathrooms in total. A period stone staircase greets you on arrival, and the living area upstairs is anchored by a wood stove, an open-plan kitchen and dining space, and a private terrace with no overlooking neighbours. Below, two vaulted cellars add real depth and history to the property. This is a house for lovers of stonework and authenticity, full of the kind of detail that can't be recreated.The property sits in the heart of a village with all amenities, just 5 minutes from Roujan, 20 minutes from Béziers and Pézenas, and 30 minutes from the beaches.
Property Layout
Basement: Two large vaulted cellars run beneath the house.Ground floor: The entrance hall welcomes you with a stunning period stone staircase. From here, the master suite unfolds, combining a bedroom with exposed stone walls, an en-suite shower room (Italian shower, WC, double-sink vanity) and a walk-in closet. A second bedroom sits alongside, and a further room with an original stone sink and pellet stove can serve as a lounge or third bedroom.First floor: A landing hall with a large storage cupboard leads into the main living area, where a four-metre-high ceiling gives real presence to the cosy lounge with its wood stove and the open-plan kitchen/dining room (electric oven and hob, a hood and a dishwasher). Sliding glass doors open onto the terrace, sheltered and private, with no overlooking. A bathroom (bathtub, WC, sink) completes this floor.Second floor: A small bedroom occupies the former dovecote.Extras: Double glazing throughout with wooden shutters, reversible air conditioning, and oil-fired central heating supplemented by a wood stove and a pellet stove. The roof is in good condition, original stone and wooden floors have been preserved, and the property is connected to mains drainage.
Location
The village has all amenities, including a bakery, a small grocery store, a bar-restaurant and a post office. Its heart still carries the imprint of the Middle Ages, with a 15th-century castle flanked by two turrets and a church dating from the 14th century, later remodelled in the 19th. Wandering through the old streets, you'll come across the remains of a former windmill gate and the foundations of a medieval chapel. The area is surrounded by vineyards and dotted with pretty Languedoc villages.At 20 minutes' drive, you'll find Béziers. This hidden South of France gem has been polished over the years and is now an even more pleasant town in which to spend some time. Whether you love strolling through picturesque little streets, having lunch or dinner on one of the many terraces, or indulging your curiosity about French history, it's all here.Driving 20 minutes the other way will bring you to Pézenas, home to around 10,000 people, is hugely popular with holidaymakers and second-home owners. Known as Molière's Town, it sits at the beginning of picturesque rolling countryside that leads up to the Montagne Noire further north. Pézenas is a local centre for antiques, arts and crafts- with two giant antiques and brocante fairs each year- and plays host to some of the region's finest restaurants. The town's weekly Saturday morning market is also a huge draw.
