This property, built in 1806, is located in the greater Narbonne area in southern France in an area on the edge of a village with all amenities.

This U-shaped, stone-built former wine estate offers 542m2 of living space between the 2 houses. The Maison de Maître has been renovated with exquisite taste, high quality materials and modern fittings, making it a comfortable place to live. All the rooms are large, spacious, light and airy - something you don't often find in old French houses. The sun turns all around the house throughout the day and in all rooms there is access to different terraces, depending on the daytime, in the shade or in the sun.

The house at the end of the east wing has its own access and courtyard, and has also been renovated. It has a very attractive exposed framework, a modern kitchen opening onto the dining room and sitting room, 3 bedrooms with 2 shower/bathrooms and a very large mezzanine bedroom, garage and utility room. In this building there is also a former stable and above it, there is a large open room that could be used for yoga or other purposes.

The former wine cellar, forming the west wing, with its decorative vats serves as a huge garage. Upstairs, there is a fitness room and potential for creating additional flats. The garden offers complete privacy and is well planted and easy to maintain. The tennis court is in perfect condition, with its own terrace for supporters.
All of the buildings are in excellent condition, with recent roofs. The main house has gas central heating, tiled floors and PVC double-glazed windows with electric shutters. Solar panels on the roof of the former wine cellar produce hot water for the swimming pool and the Maison de Maitre. The other house is heated by inertia radiators. This magical home offers a perfect balance of elegance, comfort, space and quality of life. It is an ideal property for a luxury family residence or for various business models, with B&B, gites and the possibility of creating further accommodations subject to planning permission. Easy access to everything at short distance.
