Farmhouse Gite Complex & Campsite on 2 Acres between Carcassonne & Mirepoix

Property Description

Summary
This traditional 18th century farm building was built at the beginning of the French Revolution and in the 1980s some of the outbuildings were converted to provide 4 dwellings which have been used as holiday gites ever since. In addition to the houses, there is a large barn and three storage areas at one end of the main building which offer the potential for further development. There are two open-sided barns, one used as a shady games area and the other providing covered parking with a spacious workshop to the rear which houses the main pool filtration system.

The buildings are set in approximately 2 acres of wooded park and a small campsite with 6 pitches occupies one side of the property, along with a shower block and parking spaces. There is a 12.5 x 5m swimming pool and children’s paddling pool in an enclosed, terraced area.

Sanitation and Drainage
All the houses drain into a modern waste treatment plant installed in 2013 with capacity for 25 people.

Campsite drainage is dealt with by a cesspit and ‘dégraisseur’ or grease trap.

Property Location
The property is located 25 minutes from Carcassonne airport and 55 minutes from Toulouse airport. Exit 22 of the A61 at Bram is just 10 minutes away.

Fanjeaux lies on the boundary between the hills of La Piège and the hills and vineyards of the Razès, on top of the escarpment overlooking the plains of Carcassonne, Bram and the Lauragais. The Pyrenees and the Mediterranean are both around one hour away. Both the Pyrenees and the Montagne Noire are visible from the property.
Village facilities include a bakery, grocer’s, doctor’s surgery, pharmacy, butcher, restaurant, bar-cafe, post office, tea room, petrol station and several artisans. The school takes children up to secondary school age and there is a secondary school in Bram with a school bus service.
The complex is being sold with all gite equipment, website and current advertising included. This is an ideal opportunity for a couple or family wanting to escape to rural France.
