Available with various amounts of land, this is a fabulous opportunity to purchase a large Mas requiring restoration with 3 hectares of land on the slopes of Canigou, at an altitude of 800m just outside the village of La Bastide. Included in the sale is a renovated one bedroom Bergerie situated next door to the Mas; the vendors may also consider selling an additional three other structures which, combined with the Mas and Bergerie, could be developed to offer a number of separate dwellings, each with varying amounts of land; the property would lend itself particularly well to a Chambres d'Hotes (Bed and Breakfast) and/or Gites business.

The whole estate occupies an area of approximately 134 hectares (335 acres), the land is fully fenced and consists mainly of grazing fields, pasture and woodland (predominantly chestnut and ash); set within this space are four main properties: a large Mas and a mid-sized Mas both of which need to be fully renovated, plus a fully working bergerie with electricity and water (currently used to house sheep), plus a one bedroom stone farmhouse which has been renovated and is currently used as a home by the present owners.

The buyer is offered this property in three different options:

Option 1

Main Mas
With 750m2 of living space this Mas represents a wonderful renovation opportunity. Distributed on three levels (roof has been removed), many original features remain such as bread ovens, chimneys, arches, terraces and balconies. All utilities run to the site while the views over the valley are spectacular. Three years ago the vendors were quoted by a local builder to roof the Mas and install two storeys inside at a cost of 60,000EUR - a full renovation (excluding fixtures and fittings) was 110,000EUR

Stone-built cottage
Situated a short distance from the main Mas, this former Bergerie has been renovated in a traditional style, offering 75m2 of accommodation and featuring exposed stone walls, beams and a wooden floor. It includes a fully fitted kitchen and dining area, lounge, office, double bedroom with high ceilings and a bathroom.

The properties are offered with approximately 3 hectares of land (7.5 acres), situated at an altitude of 800m. This is a beautiful and peaceful spot with incredible views onto the Roussillon plain and Mediterranean Sea.

Natural spring water, electricity, telephone and waste system are connected to the property

Asking price: 241,000 Euros

________________________________

Option 2

As per option 1 with 60 hectares (150 acres) in continuation of the property with views of the Roussillon plain and the Canigou mountain range.

In addition a stone built Bergerie, with a surface area of 100m plus a modern extension of approximately 500m. Water and electricity are connected to the building which is currently used to house sheep. A ruined farmhouse is also included in option 2 - as this appears on the cadastral plan it should be possible to restore with full consent from the Mairie. The 60 hectares of land is composed of natural prairies which are pastured by the sheep in addition to several woods comprising chestnut, oak, birch and other indigenous trees. The property is fenced and includes 3 main natural springs which provide a constant and abundant water supply.

Asking price: 367,000 Euros

Option 3

As per option 2 with a total land area of 134 hectares (335 acres) plus a further ruined Mas offering a 100m2 footprint in a very pretty location.

Asking price: 630,000 Euros

There are numerous fresh water springs on the property while it also offers complete autonomy in wood burning. Orientated towards the south-east with views towards the Roussillon plain, Perpignan and the Mediterranean. The towns of Céret and Amelie les Bains are 25km away while the Spanish border lies 45km to the south. The vendors are flexible with regards to how much/little land the next owners would like to purchase. A fantastic opportunity in a beautiful and natural setting.
