Description

A46809BK11 - Ideally situated in a residential area of Carcassonne, in walking distance from the famous Medieval City, this detached five-bedroom house offers generous accommodation, a private garden with swimming pool, garage and excellent potential to create a comfortable family home or holiday property.

Built in the 1950s, this well-established home has been enjoyed as a holiday property and offers a comfortable and versatile layout with plenty of scope for the new owners to personalise the interiors and make the most of the generous living spaces. The existing layout provides an excellent foundation for creating a welcoming family home or holiday retreat in a highly sought-after location.

The property is particularly appealing for buyers looking for a detached house within walking distance of the historic centre, while still benefiting from a private garden, swimming pool and garage.

Ground Floor

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, which provides access to the main living areas and stairs to the first floor.

To the left of the entrance hall is the separate kitchen, approximately 11m². The kitchen is located at the front of the house and could be modernised to create a contemporary family kitchen while retaining the existing practical layout.

To the right is the spacious 31m² living room. This is a particularly attractive room, with a dual aspect, allowing plenty of natural light from both the front and rear of the property. A rear window looks directly towards the swimming pool and garden, giving the room a pleasant outlook.

Also on this level is a separate WC.

The 9m² dining room is located towards the rear of the house and has a window overlooking the swimming pool and garden. Its position makes it a natural space for family meals and entertaining, with the possibility of opening or reconfiguring the living areas if desired, subject to any necessary permissions.

The ground floor also provides direct access to the 32m² garage, an important practical feature offering secure parking, storage and additional workspace.

First Floor

The staircase leads to the first-floor landing, from which all five bedrooms and the family bathroom are accessed.

The master bedroom measures approximately 19.5m² and benefits from its own 6m² en-suite bathroom. The master bedroom also has access to a terrace, from which steps lead down towards the garden. This provides a lovely private outdoor area and a convenient connection between the first floor and the garden.

The landing then leads to four further bedrooms:

Bedroom 2 – 14.6m²
Bedroom 3 – 14.8m², with a useful walk-in cupboard
Bedroom 4 – 12m²
Bedroom 5 – 9.5m²

There is also a 6m² family bathroom and a separate storage cupboard on this level.

The configuration makes the property particularly suitable for a large family, those regularly welcoming guests, or buyers looking for a holiday home with plenty of sleeping accommodation.

Outside

The house is set within its own garden, with a private swimming pool providing a focal point for outdoor living during the warmer months. The rear-facing windows from the living and dining rooms overlook the pool and garden, helping to connect the indoor and outdoor spaces.

The terrace accessed from the master bedroom, with steps leading down to the garden, provides an additional outdoor space and could be developed further to create a more attractive private seating or dining area.

The 32m² garage offers generous storage and parking space and can also be useful for bicycles, garden equipment, tools or other leisure equipment.

Location & Potential

One of the property's key advantages is its location. Being approximately 15 minutes on foot from the Medieval City of Carcassonne, the house combines the convenience of being close to one of the area's main attractions with the space and privacy of a detached property.

Carcassonne's historic centre, restaurants, cafés, shops and everyday amenities are readily accessible, while the surrounding region offers easy access to the Canal du Midi, vineyards, countryside and the wider attractions of the Aude and Occitanie.

With five bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a separate WC, a 31m² living room, separate dining room, garden, swimming pool and 32m² garage, this is a property with plenty to offer. Although some updating would bring the house into line with modern tastes, the existing accommodation and location provide an excellent foundation for creating a spacious permanent residence or a very attractive holiday home in Carcassonne.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
