This stylish and versatile house is tucked away in the middle of a small friendly village, nestling amongst the vineyards ten kilometres north of Beziers.
The house is just off the square near the general shop, bakery and post office. Formed from two adjoining properties and dating back to the middle ages, the main house was once the post office, while next door used to be the bergerie for the château.
Renovated in the mid 1990s, no expense has been spared to create a light and airy comfortable home, while retaining the original characteristic features - including floor-tiles, traditional chimney, and exposed beams. The street façade, deliberately unrestored, reveals nothing of what lies within.
MAIN HOUSE: The main house has a master bedroom with its own terrace and ensuite bathroom, three further bedrooms and large family bathroom. Downstairs there is a shower-room and loo, a large store-room, utility room with washing-machine and tumble-dryer. An inner door takes you through to a farmhouse kitchen, beautifully hand-crafted in chestnut wood, and sitting-room with traditional Languedoc chimney and Godin open wood-burning stove.
GUEST HOUSE: On one side of the yard are the stables which have been converted into a guest house with a double-bedroom, bathroom and upstairs sitting-room/bedroom leading onto a balcony and outside staircase. Downstairs is a kitchen-dining room with enamel wood-burner. To the side is a workshop and store-room.
BERGERIE: The Bergerie includes a garage with remotely-controlled electric doors shower-room and separate loo, and a store-room for garden furniture and bikes. On the first floor is a double bedroom and bathroom, as well as a large room, currently used as a ping-pong room, with a fireplace at one end and plumbing for a potential kitchen at the other. On the top floor (formerly the grenier) is a large double bedroom, with ensuite shower room, and a roof terrace with views over the village to the vineyards beyond.
OUTSIDE: A vine-covered paved terrace with a working well and an old olive tree leading out to a pool in a sunny enclosed area including a 'trompe-d’oeil' of the Languedocian landscape.
