Originally built in 1972 and then fully renovated and improved in 2008 this substantial family home is situated in a countryside setting just two minutes from popular Céret. Electric gates open on to a wide parking area in front of the house with a car port to one side with room for three vehicles, a path leads to the front door which opens on to the ground floor where all the bedrooms are to be found: master bedroom with large ensuite dressing room, ensuite shower room and separate WC, 'L' shaped children's' bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a guest suite with dressing area, ensuite shower room and double patio doors opening to the outside, a fourth bedroom with doors to the garden (currently used as a gymnasium).

A central staircase leads up to the main living floor situated at garden level: large open-plan lounge with cathedral ceilings and mezzanine above, separate dining area, suspended fireplace and a full wall of sliding glass doors leading out to the south-facing terrace and garden beyond. WC with wash hand basin. The separate kitchen features a stunning series of wall and floor units incorporating the latest in appliances, to the rear there is a separate laundry/larder. Doors lead out to the conservatory dining area / breakfast room which offers lovely views of the garden and surrounding countryside beyond.

A staircase leads up from the lounge to a large mezzanine office area, 5th bedroom with shower, wash hand basin and WC, plus a snug kids TV room / play area (limited head height).

Directly in front of the main living area is a wide wooden deck with installation for an open fire in the middle helping create an amazing atmosphere for evening entertainment; the deck continues around to the side of the house and on to surround the large (12m x 5m) swimming pool. Beyond the lovely garden (1.5 acres) is laid mainly to lawn with a variety of Mediterranean trees and Palms; at one end of the garden there is a tree house with zip line and trampoline etc. to amuse some lucky children.

Towards the bottom of the garden there is a separate workshop and storage building that could transform into additional accommodation if desired, while the pool machinery and tech room is housed in a further storage area next to the house. The property benefits access to the local irrigation canal which feeds a deep storage tank from where an automatic irrigation system feeds out throughout the garden; in addition, cabling has been laid throughout the garden to enable most areas to be lit at night time.

The house is right up to date with most rooms having been prepared with network points to facilitate internet access in addition to being wired for home cinema installations and house-wide audio solutions. There is a brand new oil-fired central heating system while the property has been completely re-insulated and features brand new doors and windows throughout - hence the exceptional 'A' energy rating figure.

To summarise: a magnificent family home in a most desirable location with truly excellent views. Lots of room to entertain and welcome guests while still retaining a cosy and homely feel; a smashing house with many fun and useful mod-cons.
