This hidden gem is set in wooded grounds of 5000m2, creating a very private family home. It has been extended over the years to provide a large living area, all on one level, with up to 6 bedrooms.
The layout is designed to take full advantage of the magnificent garden, with terraces providing places to sit in sun or shade, to enjoy the surroundings and distant views of the Pyrenees. The swimming pool has a terraced surround.
The accommodation includes a spacious living / dining area, newly fitted kitchen, 4 bedrooms, a second sitting room and a study. Some redecoration is needed to bring the house up to date.
The property is set above the lively village of Villemoustaussou, in a sought-after residential area. It is only a short drive away from Carcassonne.

This lovely house is a great find! The owners developed the property from a hunting cabin in the 1980’s to create a large family home, set in a mature Mediterranean-style garden. The house is spacious and bright, with a versatile layout, a large swimming pool (10.5m x 5.5m) and plenty of space for outdoor living.
Heating is provided by heat pumps, which also provide air-conditioning in the summer. It is well-insulated and double-glazed.
A long cypress-lined drive leads from the electric gates, through the wooded grounds, to two parking areas and the double garage. The house is south-facing with a long terrace overlooking the garden and with a distant view of the Pyrenees.
The front door leads into a welcoming entrance hall, with cloakroom. The bedroom wing lies to the left and the main living space to the right.
The living room has an open fireplace and patio doors onto the terrace, and leads to the dining room behind, with another terrace to the back of the house.
The kitchen was renewed a few years ago and is sleek and modern with stone work surfaces and integrated appliances. There is a large utility room off the kitchen, and access from here to the garage. Outside the kitchen is a covered terrace with built-in barbeque.
Beyond the living room is a second sitting room with French windows, plus a bathroom and WC. This room could easily be used as a 5th bedroom with en-suite facilities.
Stairs lead from the living room to the study / 6th bedroom with views over the garden.
The bedroom wing is set slightly apart from the living space and comprises a master suite of bedroom, dressing room and bathroom, with its own terrace, plus 3 further bedrooms and a shower room.
It should be noted that some redecoration is required, and that the bathrooms are rather dated.
The swimming pool and garden are not overlooked and offer a peaceful location to enjoy the wonderful climate of the south of France.
The village of Villemoustaussou is well-served with shops, restaurants and amenities. There is a large retail park about 5 minutes away, and Carcassonne with all its attractions and railway station is only 15 minutes by car, as is the international airport.
