Property description

Located in the centre of a much sought after, extraordinarily pretty medieval bastide village, small circular town, typical of this region, on the main tree lined boulevard with shops, bars, restaurants and all amenities, this beautifully renovated 4 storey stone house has about 240m2 habitable space. The entrance, on the ground floor leads into a large hallway 5mx2m with stairs to the upper floors. A door leads off the hallway behind which are stairs down to a cellar 4mx4m, dry and cut out of the rock, this is where the central heating oil and wood for the open fires are kept. On the ground floor leading off the hall is a large living room 6mx5m and a fully fitted kitchen 6mx3m recently refurbished. The hallway leads out into a really lovely open stone courtyard.

The ground floor is tiled throughout and has its original marble fireplace, as do all the other rooms in the house. The original wide wooden staircase leads to a large landing 5mx2m with two very spacious double bedrooms 6mx5m and 6mx3m, both have fitted cupboards, marble fireplaces and the 'master' bedroom has a balcony overlooking the tree lined avenue and electrically operated roller blinds. There is an ensuite bathroom with WC, basin and shower off the master bedroom which also has a door leading out onto the landing and a door onto the balcony. The flooring is polished wood. Carrying on up there is a half landing to the back of the house which has a bathroom with WC and a laundry room which overlooks the courtyard. This could be shared by two bedrooms at the rear on the first and second floors.

The wide staircase from the main landing takes you up to the second floor where the layout is the same. On the third floor, the old grenier or loft space has been completely renovated and converted into a spacious light two bedroom apartment with fitted kitchen bathroom and living area. It has been divided into three spaces but has almost full head room throughout and windows on both sides. If you want to live in a lively small French town with all amenities you could not do much better than this. The lake of Montbel with fishing and water sports is only 3k away, Puivert 8k Limoux & Lavelanet 25k.The airports of Toulouse and Carcassonne both less than an hour. Skiing is well within a days run to Cavanac and Ax les Thermes.
