Located just 25 kilometres north of Carcassonne in the peaceful hills of the Montagne Noire, this property combines modern comfort, village convenience, and natural features. Positioned on the edge of an historic medieval village, all daily amenities—including local shops, dining, schools, and healthcare—are easily reached on foot within five minutes.

Constructed in 2005, the house has been designed to maximize natural light and capture panoramic views across the countryside toward the Pyrenean peaks. The ground floor opens into an expansive living area that forms the focal point of the interior, featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace and flowing into an open-plan kitchen. Practical service spaces include a separate pantry, a utility room with WC and sink, and direct internal access to a generous 24 m² garage and workshop area.

The accommodation is highly versatile and well suited to family life or hosting guests. The ground-floor layout includes a primary suite with its own private bathroom (bath, washbasin, and WC), a second bedroom with an integrated shower room, and a dedicated home office that can easily serve as a fifth bedroom. Upstairs, two mezzanine-style bedrooms offer character living quarters, one of which includes a separate WC and washbasin. Additional storage is available within the roof eaves.

The standout feature of this residence lies within its 5.000 m² of private grounds. A private river flows through the land, highlighted by two cascading 6-metre waterfalls that create a serene, acoustic backdrop. Adjacent to the main house, a south-facing dining terrace shaded by a wisteria canopy offers an idyllic setting for outdoor meals while taking in the views of the garden and distant mountain scenery.

Whether sought as an exceptional family home, a tranquil holiday retreat, or a distinctive base for a tourist accommodation business, this property represents a rare market opportunity in southern France. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the unique setting and features.
