A large, light village house in Cazedarnes, one of the most sought-after villages in Herault. The house is just off the village's pretty main square.

It is currently a ruin - with all the furniture and junk removed. All the walls are stone - which when rendered - would look superb. Many of the original wood beams are also present.

Architect plans (similar to those shown) have been drawn up - turning the house into a beautiful 4-bedroom house - with a courtyard. The sitting room/dining room would open out to the courtyard.

The 2nd bedroom - on the first floor - would have a large dressing room and bathroom - and would overlook the courtyard below - letting in lots of light.

A top bedroom would also have its own shower room - and a window overlooking the cobbled village street leading to the village square.

The front of the house could also be restored to expose the original stone.

The village is a traditional Languedoc wine village - with a central core of beautiful stone houses with terracotta roofs. The countryside around is exquisite, and forms part of the St Chinean appelation - one of the finest wine growing areas in the region.

The village is only 5 minutes from the town of Cessenon - and 10 minutes from St Chinean itself.
