Estate Spanning 42 Hectares

Property Description

An exceptional private estate in the heart of the Aude – 42 hectares of enclosed land, peace and unspoilt nature.

Set within the Carcassonne–Limoux–Bram triangle at an altitude of 300 metres, this fully enclosed private estate extends over 42 hectares and offers a rare way of life, completely secluded and free from any disturbance. Bordering woodland and surrounded by protected countryside, the property provides a true sense of escape, making it ideal for projects centered around nature, sustainable farming or hospitality ventures.

The former 19th-century farmhouse has been carefully renovated and offers approximately 388 sqm of living space, including a separate 53 sqm gite. The interior spaces are warm, flexible and well balanced, comprising a large fitted kitchen, a sitting room with fireplace, a master suite, four further bedrooms, a gym and various utility rooms. Comfort, simplicity and authenticity have been brought together while respecting the character of the original building.

Outside, the scale and character of the estate truly come into their own. The 42 hectares of fully fenced land include a mix of meadows, woodland and walking tracks, as well as a natural pond (etang), a productive orchard of 850 almond trees and a large area suited to permaculture, agroforestry or a wildlife park. With no neighbouring buildings and complete tranquillity, the site offers outstanding potential for eco-lodges, unusual accommodation or a green tourism project.

A 155 sqm garage, workshop, kennels and a range of additional facilities complete this forward-thinking, largely self-sufficient estate. Just 15 minutes from local amenities, this distinctive property is perfect for those seeking space, nature and sustainable projects in an exceptional setting.

Stone property with superb views. Three living rooms, two fitted kitchens and a pantry. Master suite plus seven additional bedrooms. Two bathrooms and two shower rooms. Dressing room, wine cellar, boiler room. Terrace of about 45 sqm. Individual sanitation system compliant with standards.

The estate is ideally located just a short drive from Limoux — known for its blanquette wine and lively festivals — and less than 30 minutes from the renowned medieval city of Carcassonne. Shops, restaurants, local artisans, administrative services, weekly markets and schools are all available in the surrounding towns and villages. The surrounding area offers a wide range of leisure activities, including walking trails in the Malepère forest, cycling routes, wine tours of local vineyards and visits to the landmark sites of the Cathar region. The Mediterranean coast and the mountain resorts of the Pyrenees are also within easy reach.
