| | Nancy Wood, Independent Agent, says: | | This is a large and gracious village property with a classic facade. It lies central to an authentic country village in the midst of the Lanquedoc vineyards. | This is a great opportunity to be part of French village life, without compromising on standard of accommodation. This is a large property in excellent condition. It has been charmingly restored, retaining many original features, such as fireplaces and exposed wooden beams There are five bedrooms, an office and a charming walled courtyard and a rooftop terrace, for sunbathing in privacy. The courtyard offers complete privacy within its stone walls, some of them artistically left in their original state. This is the ideal spot to enjoy a glass of red or dine alfresco with friends and neighbours!
The front door, with its ornamental grill, gives access to a generous reception area, off which you'll find the lounge room with fireplace, kitchen with a massive fireplace and the courtyard. There is also a powder room on this floor. Go up the iron and stone staircase, and discover 3 huge bedrooms and a vast bathroom in which one could luxuriate for hours. On the second floor, there are two more large double bedrooms, an office, the roof terrace and a further shower room and WC.
The village lies in the heart of Languedoc, the largest wine growing region in the world. The villagers are a very friendly lot and have opened their hearts to newcomers.
