Maison de Maitre

Built in 1805, this charming property is located in the heart of a village with all amenities, in a very quiet location what is very exceptional, in the greater Narbonne area, Languedoc Roussillon, Occitanie, South of France. Passing a large wrought iron gate, a mature garden with many flowers, a pond and various citrus trees are surprising the visitor. A large staircase with a banister covered in flowers and the air full of sweet honey taste, leads up to a large terrace overlooking the garden. From here is the access to the main house and the BBQ-lounge with sliding doors all long. The main house offers 4 bedrooms and an attic to convert. In an independent dwelling are the 3 Gîtes with each independent access, a large games room and at the far end is the heated indoor swimming pool. The mature garden, entirely walled, is accessible for everybody and offers various places to hide away. Plenty of storage space, an atelier and 2 large garages complete this property. Definitely a visit is a MUST.Description of the buildings The property offers in total 424m2 of living space.

The Gîtes have doble glazed PVC wood imitation windows. At the moment they are only used during the season. It would be easy to get the gas central heating installed in the Gîtes to extend the season. Comments An unusual property sitting in the old center of a village, very quiet and only a few steps from all amenities and restaurants. In a short driving distance is Narbonne and a bit further the Mediterranean sea. The letting business gives a good income and could easily be extended with a longer open period, even all year round. A good opportunity for a change of life style in a sunny pleasant climate.
