Farmhouse with 2 delightful gites, pool & garden. CAPESTANG village edge. Dept 34

This is a lot of property, for the price! A lovely traditional home of about 200 years old, just outside the small, extremely popular, canalside town of Capestang, with a large, mature garden, loads of original features and plenty more possibilities. Room for a 3rd gite in the already converted, centre of the house, plus a delightful pool and amazing views across open countryside. This property would make a great Chambre D'hotes (B & B) as it is in such a good location.

6 bedrooms in the house & plenty more scope for further conversion; the current owners have lovingly restored the opposite end of the house and created two gorgeous, roomy 2 bed gites which are fully let throughout the spring & summer season. They are reluctant to leave their home here, but work & school issues mean they no longer live here full time.
There is an enormous 'barn' conversion in the middle; between the house & the first gite, which has been used as a studio & games room; this could easily become another gite with the addition of a kitchen & bathroom.

Capestang is a village which is popular with tourists but is not spoiled by them with the essential character of a southern French village still being retained. It is an area is full of antiquity and items of historical interest dating back to 3,000 BC. This village has been in existence for at least 1,000 years and parts of the old village wall and other buildings still exist.

It is a centre of the Languedoc viticulture region where the local wines have become exceptionally good over the last few years. Beaches are within 20 minutes drive. There is swimming in the sea, lakes and nearby swimming pools with other water sports. You can hire a boat for a leisurely ride along the canal, or hire cycles for a ride. It is a very good area for cycling and walking. Wine tasting, eating out and exploring old relics are also good options.

The locals are so very cheerful, friendly and helpful and overall it has a calm and peaceful atmosphere and is an ideal place to wind down.

Location in France

Herault, department number 34, is located in the South of France on the Mediterranean coast and has a fantastic year round climate. It is famous for its full-bodied red wines and for its oyster beds along the coast in the Bassin de Thau.
Montpellier is the capital of both the Hérault department and the Languedoc-Roussillon region, and is the driving force behind the regional economy with high tech industries in Agropolis and Euromedecine. The area has seen a dramatic transformation during the last 50 years. The rise of a strong left of centre local government has left a legacy of good housing, pedestrianisation of town centres and a public transportation network that is second to none.
Béziers is further to the south, renowned for its ancient bridge. It has a population of 70,000 and is the unofficial capital of the largest wine-producing region in France, with vineywards dominating much of the local landscape.
Elsewhere, the town of Sete is the most important fishing port on the French Mediterranean coast and Le Cap d'Agde is the largest purpose built tourist resort in the whole of Europe. It can accommodate up to 100,000 tourists at any one time. Nearby is Saint-Guilhem-le-Desert, one of France's most beautiful villages.
Flying into Herault couldn't be easier. There is an international airport in Montpellier and a smaller one in Béziers, with mainly flights from Paris. Although Ryanair now has a service from Bristol to Béziers three times a week. Montpellier has regular flights to and from the UK with Ryanair, GB Airways and British Airways. The fast and comfortable TGV train service also runs through to Montpellier.
In terms of french property, Montpellier is the most expensive city in the Languedoc-Roussillon and has experienced a 25 percent increase in prices over the last five years. Outside Montpellier, the trend remains similar, as the Hérault is an increasingly popular place in which to own property - but in the rural villages and hamlets further inland, there are still bargain french properties to be found.
