Nancy Wood, Independent Agent, says: | | This property will afford quick return with holiday rentals. A coat of paint and some furniture is all it needs to start letting. And they'll come in droves with the new golf development being undertaken by Lacoste. | This village house was renovated in the late 50s and while it may lack of lot of old-world character, it is well presented and offers 3 large bedrooms, one with a balcony, a large lounge and an eat-in-kitchen. It is tiled throughout and therefore will be low maintenance during change-over between holiday renters. There is also plenty of space to add ensuite bathrooms too, without removing walls or adding partition walls.
If you think more outside space is needed, then there is an opportunity to turn one of the bedrooms into a large terrace. Of course that will turn the house into a 2 bedroom property, but it is still a big house and one can always add a sofa bed in the living area to accommodate additional guests.
In addition to the house, there is an unattached plot of 129m2 currently with a garage and garden, about 70 metres away. This plot has now been deemed constructable. In order to make the most of any building, you will need to demolish the existing garage and start from scratch. There are no services to the plot yet, but they are just a few metres down the road. The CU has been applied for and any sale will of course be conditional on obtaining the CU.

The property is situated in a village that lies in the heart of Languedoc, the largest wine growing region in the world. The villagers are a very friendly lot and have opened their hearts to newcomers. There is a very active social life in the village which gives one the opportunity to integrate quickly. The village also is the home of 4 independent winemakers in addition to the "Cave Cooperative", which allows one to readily participate in the economy of the region.
The village is nestled on the plains between the Montagne Noir and the Pryenees, It is also 2 minutes from the Canal du Midi and 10 minutes from Lac Jouarres. The Mediterranean coast is 25 minutes away. This is a perfect location to avail oneself of the diversity of region: barging on the canal, sailing, white-water rafting, water skiing, wind surfing, hiking, caving, and snow skiing/boarding. One is also able to make easy day trips to Spain, which is only 90 minutes away.
For those who are golf-enthusiasts, there is a golf resort development underway within 5 minutes of the property, which will boast a championship 18-hole courses with accompanying club-house amentities. Until then, the area is serviced by golf clubs in Carcassonne and Beziers (25 minutes) and Mazamet (1 hour).
The area is well-serviced by Carcassonne Airport (35 minutes) with daily flights from England and Ireland or by Toulouse International Airport (90 minutes). Fast-train service from Paris also arrives at Narbonne (25 minutes) twice daily.
