Romantic 3-4 bed stone house with garden - very rare! - and lake views, in a fishing village near Narbonne.

A rare opportunity to own a unique character stone house in one of the most sought-after coastal villages in this beautiful region. Although in need of renovation (with a new roof in 2006 and refurbishment in 2013), it offers the chance to create a wonderful home full of personality. The property includes a good-sized terraced garden, a rooftop terrace with stunning views across the Étang de Bages, and a peaceful setting in a village perched above the salt lakes. Just 9km from Narbonne and surrounded by vineyards, hills, lakes and the Île de Sainte-Lucie nature reserve, this is a location that is as special as the property itself.

A rare character stone house in one of the region’s most popular coastal villages, offering wonderful views over the Étang de Bages, a private terraced garden and an exceptional rooftop terrace. While the property would benefit from renovation, it already has a newer roof (2006) and previous refurbishment (2013), providing an excellent opportunity to create a distinctive home in an outstanding location close to Narbonne.

The property is situated close to the village church at the highest point of the village, where parking is available. Small streets lead down towards the lake, and both the house and garden can be accessed from two of them. The front door opens from the north side into a stone-walled entrance hall, leading through to the main south- and east-facing living accommodation.

The spacious kitchen/dining room (26m²), fitted with a white kitchen, enjoys windows to the south and east together with a glazed door opening directly onto the garden. The thick stone walls help keep the house cool during the summer, while a wood-burning stove provides warmth in winter and transfers heat to the main bedroom above. A few steps from the hallway lead to the family shower room with WC, together with a separate WC.

A tiled staircase leads to the generous main bedroom (26m²), featuring windows to the south and east, exposed timber beams and terracotta floor tiles. A further short flight of stairs leads to the second bedroom (approximately 14m²), also with terracotta tiles, an east-facing window overlooking the garden, and a shower room.

At the next level is a third bedroom within the roof space, with exposed timber beams, terracotta flooring, an east-facing window overlooking the lake, a Velux roof window and a small shower area.

A few more steps lead to the rooftop terrace of around 15m². From here there are wonderful views across the lake, the village rooftops and the garden, with its fig, robinia and oleander trees. The terrace is completely private, making it an ideal place for relaxing, sunbathing and enjoying the scenery, while a raised deck provides even wider views.

A second door from the terrace leads into a small room that could serve as a bedroom or study, with a window overlooking the entrance side of the house. Below this, reached via a second tiled staircase with timber edging, is another room of similar size, currently used for storage, and requiring renovation. The stairs continue down to the entrance hall.

The private terraced garden of approximately 102m² can be accessed directly from the quiet village street, as well as from the house. At the lower level are a useful storage area containing the washing machine, and a gravelled seating area beneath the shade of the fig and other trees. A few steps higher is the terracotta-tiled terrace, which enjoys plenty of sunshine throughout the day.

The village offers a small grocery shop, two local fruit and vegetable producers, and several cafés and restaurants. Narbonne is just 9km away, with a bus service running three times a day for €2. Nearby Peyriac-de-Mer (5km) offers restaurants, bars and a supermarket. The nearest beach, la Plage du Doul, is 7km away, Narbonne Plage is 26km, Béziers 40km, Carcassonne 62km, and Spain can be reached in around an hour by car (96 km).
