Jonathan Grix, Independent Agent, says: | | Ever wanted to own a hamlet? These former hamlet houses, surrounded by forests, have been renovated to provide a wonderful family home and gite with the possibility to add a further two gites. | Two of the former hamlet houses have been combined to create a large family home with 5 bedrooms, lounge, dining room and office. Renovated in 2003, including new electrics and central heating, the house has maintained its character with exposed stone walls, wooden floors and grand fireplaces, there is even a traditional wood fired bread oven to make your own fresh bread and pizzas. Water is provided from a nearby well and the property has mains electricity.
In addition to the main house one of the other two properties has been converted into a gite that is successfully rented during the summer months. The fourth house could also be converted to a gite as well as the attic of the main property that benefits from it's own entrance; hence there is the possibility to have three gites providing a good income.
The property is surrounded by protected forests and your nearest neighbour is 1½ km away, so you can enjoy the serenity of the location and the wonderful views of the countryside and beyond to Carcassonne and the Pyrenees. The nearest town is only 6km away and here you will find all your needs including a grocery store, bakery, pharmacy, doctor and dentist.
The property is within 15 minutes of the famous Cathar site of Lastours, attracting 40,000 visitors a year. Here you will also find several restaurants including the Michelin starred Le Puits du Tresor. There are plenty of other local attractions for you and your guests to visit including; caves at Limousis and Cabrespine, waterfalls, Canal du Midi, numerous Cathar castles and abbeys and of course the medieval City of Carcassonne.
In addition to all the tourist attractions the area is a haven for walkers and all the local villages have marked paths ranging from easy to the more strenuous that reward you with wonderful views. If you enjoy golf then you will be pleased to know that Mazamet golf course, perhaps the most beautiful course in the area, is only 30 minutes away.
Carcassonne airport, served by flights from Stansted, East Midlands, Liverpool, Dublin and Shannon, is only 30 minutes away. For more flight options Toulouse airport is less than 90 minutes away.
