FOR SALE Residence with grounds and vines
in a peaceful and exceptional situation Approx. 200 m² living space
set in 21 hectares of land Price: 650.000€
This property is situated in the south of France in the region of Languedoc – Roussillon, in the Aude Department. It is 45 km south of Carcassonne and just 15 km south west of the market town of Limoux. The property, in the heart of the countryside, is surrounded by magnificent walking routes and is only an hour and a half from the beaches of the Mediterranean Sea and the ski centres of the Pyrenees Mountains.
The house faces south and was completely restored in 1992. It sits in the middle of beautiful grounds and vineyards. The 21 hectare estate includes 5 ha of AOC vines, Chardonnay, Chenin and Mauzac (the grape of Blanquette), and 0.60 ha of Pinot Noir. The wine production, certified organic, is rented out until 2015. This prize winning vineyard enjoys a microclimate and an exceptional situation. A potential buyer could immediately plant another 5 ha of new vines on adjoining land perfect for this purpose. The rest of the land, naturally terraced, would be suitable for fruit trees, olives, lavender or other aromatics.
The land would also be very attractive to horse-lovers.
The house is built in natural stone and sits harmoniously in the surrounding landscape. The rooms have been appointed to the highest standards, and comprise the following:
A large kitchen-diner opening on to a spacious living room with an open fire place. A wide stairway leads to the first floor with a living room, bedroom, bathroom with WC, mezzanine floor overlooking the main living room, a second WC and a wine cave. The house has under floor gas central heating, double glazed windows, solar power supply and an independent drinking water supply.
In front of the house, due south, is a spacious terrace in natural stone and a pond covered in water lily, giving a superb and unique view of the Pyrenees.
Next door is an open fronted building large enough to garage 3 cars, with a workshop, and a little further away still on the estate land there is a charming wooden guest house.
