In the heart of Carcassonne's old town, just steps from the medieval citadel and the train station, you'll be captivated by this charming apartment nestled in one of the city's finest Haussmann-style buildings.

This 200.51 sq m (Carrez Law) apartment, spread over two floors, boasts elegant and light-filled interiors, generous living spaces, and two private terraces offering breathtaking views of the Pyrenees and the Montagne Noire.

A rare find, ideal as a primary residence, pied-à-terre, or a quality investment in a unique and sunny setting.

The restoration of the ashlar facade was completed in 2024 to highlight the heritage features of this 19th-century building, designed by one of the city's iconic architects. That same year, 2024, a new, high-end boiler was installed to improve the thermal comfort of this small condominium and achieve energy savings.

Behind the carriage entrance with its cast-iron motifs lies an elegant hall with old-world charm, featuring a marble staircase, wrought-iron railings, and decorative details.

The second-floor apartment welcomes you with an entrance hall, leading to a spacious 45-square-meter living area comprising a living room, dining room, solid wood flooring, a marble fireplace, moldings, and a dressing room, as well as a magnificent view of the Bastide heights and the Church of Saint-Vincent. Adjoining this is a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, bathtub, and toilet; a second bedroom with a built-in wardrobe; and an office with bookshelves, a marble fireplace, and a closet. The kitchen is bright and spacious, with ample storage. A bathroom with a shower and a separate toilet complete this level.

Upstairs, the second apartment has been designed to combine family harmony with individual independence and is accessible via an external terracotta-tiled staircase. The landing opens onto an entrance/living room with black and white tile flooring, leading to a 15 m² terrace offering panoramic views of the city rooftops and the Aude countryside, with no overlooking neighbors. The two attic bedrooms are charming and peaceful, one of them featuring a corner zinc terrace. The apartment layout also includes a spacious laundry room (which could be converted into a kitchen) with a double antique washbasin, a bathroom with shower and toilet, a wardrobe, and attics converted into storage spaces.

Secure parking spaces are available for rent on a yearly basis near the property.
