Grounds
The 72ha of land is made up of 32ha vineyards, 4ha of woods, with the rest being meadows and shrubland. There are many mature trees including 250 olive trees, and 600 lavender plants. Around the pools and the property there are many Mediterranean plants, shrubs and flowers.

General condition
Renovated buildings are in perfect condition with high standard renovation for the 2 Gîtes (self catering apartments for lease). Gas central heating for the old manor and electric convectors for the other dwellings. Some bedrooms have reversible air conditioning. Windows and doors are wooden with double or single glazing and wooden shutters. All outside walls and some interior ones are in exposed stone. Floors are terracotta tiles or parquet and there are exposed beams in some bedrooms. Water is supplied by two bore holes. There is an automatic watering system for the swimming pool area.

Comments
This large character property, offering two beautifully renovated Gîtes (self catering apartments for rent), as well as an owner’s and a care taker’s apartments, has recently been renovated. It has the potential to convert three other buildings and probably further planning permission for 10 or 12 more houses (under negotiation with the authorities). It is located in a peaceful environment with open views on the surrounding vineyards and rolling hills and within walking distance of a village with all amenities, bars and restaurants. Within easy reach of Carcassonne and its international airport, a motorway and the beaches, this is a beautiful property with great potential for a Gîtes business.
