Languedoc-Roussillon, Aude, Limoux, France

In Limoux, in a particularly unique and preserved natural environment and just a few minutes from the town centre and its amenities, discover an absolutely unique property, designed around bioclimatic architecture, energy self-sufficiency and a true connection with nature.

Built between 2011 and 2015 by its owner, this house is unlike any other.
Its striking architecture is inspired by the principle of an inverted boat hull. Its self-supporting wooden frame, designed using techniques inspired by shipbuilding, frees the interior volumes from load-bearing walls, thus offering great freedom in the organisation of spaces.

The house offers approximately 146 m² of living space, to which is added a remarkable living area under a glass roof, a true extension of the house open to the outside.

The interior space is organised around a large, bright living area that combines the lounge, dining room, and open-plan kitchen. The glass roof naturally extends this space, allowing you to enjoy the light and surroundings throughout the year.

The house also has two bedrooms designed as two master suites, each with its own bathroom, an office area, a pantry, a utility room and two separate toilets.
But this property also stands out because of its energy design.

Designed according to the principles of bioclimatic architecture, it benefits from a carefully considered orientation in order to take advantage of natural resources and limit its energy needs.

Photovoltaic panels combined with storage batteries provide significant electrical autonomy. The system is complemented by a solar thermal system for hot water production, a pellet stove, and a Canadian well (ground-source heat exchanger) which has already been installed but remains to be connected.

A carport equipped for charging an electric vehicle and powered by solar energy completes this installation. The property remains connected to the public water supply but has a well in the garden.
Outside, the exceptional nature of the place becomes fully apparent.

The house is situated in the heart of approximately 2.6 hectares of land, in a green and particularly quiet setting, with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.

A large terrace adjoins the house, allowing you to fully enjoy its surroundings. Several shaded areas have been created on the grounds, and a dedicated children's area includes a treehouse, a climbing wall, and a slide.

The property also includes a small outbuilding currently used for storage. Its size offers interesting development possibilities, allowing for the creation, subject to the necessary permits, of an independent space, a workshop, or even an unusual hospitality project.

A large water reserve intended primarily for irrigating the grounds, as well as individual sanitation, complete the property's facilities.
This property is aimed at buyers looking for much more than a traditional house: a true life project.

Its land, bioclimatic design, energy equipment and environment allow for different uses: main residence geared towards greater autonomy, family project in contact with nature, vegetable garden, orchard, welcoming small animals.
And yet, despite this feeling of being apart from the world, Limoux and all its shops, schools, services and infrastructure remain accessible in just a few minutes.

Carcassonne and its airport are about 20 minutes away, Toulouse about an hour away. The location also allows easy access to both the Mediterranean coast and the Pyrenees.
A rare property, ideal for lovers of atypical architecture and wide open spaces.
