Property description
Exceptional property situated in the historic hart of a thriving market town with a navigable river.
The foundations of this impressive building date back to the 12th –13th century and are built on the vestiges of a roman stronghold. It was owned by the “Manlezun family” overlooking the Gèle valley and acted at the same time as a defensive position for the town as indicated by the stairs for access to the garden built into the base of the tower (no longer existing).
The property (450 m²), on three levels, is still showing a wealth of original features, beautiful ceilings, plaster mouldings, terra cotta, parquet, fire places and so on. History speaks all over the place.
Redecorated in the 18th and 19th century and now with all modern comfort. The centrepiece was and still is the hall with its impressive dramatic lime stone staircase and wrought iron ramp.
The entrance door opens up to a, partly covered, courtyard leading to the beautiful stone-decorated entrance to the main house.
The property also comprises separate accommodation offering possibilities to house private guests or for a property to operate as a business or just for one- or two families.
A small second house (70 m²) now in use as garage and apartment is also included in the sale.
Too much to talk about but who needs words when one experiences beauty? It’s the emotion that counts! Those seeking for a large town house with charm and history and enough accommodation to shelter even two families and wanting to enjoy peace and quiet and yet being on walking distance to all commodities, this may be the only chance you get!!
