Description
Nestled within the picturesque village backdrop of Languedoc-Roussillon, Aude, Lagrasse in the heart of France, stands an authentically French countryside residence that embodies both charm and opportunity. This spacious 8-bedroom property, now available at a reduced price for a swift sale, promises its future owners not just a home, but a chance to partake in an idyllic lifestyle amidst rolling hills and sun-drenched landscapes typical of this illustrious region.
Living in Lagrasse offers an appeal unmatched by the hustle and bustle of city life, with the village renowned for its historical allure and the gentle flow of the Orbieu River nearby. Famed for its medieval abbey and considered one of "Les Plus Beaux Villages de France" (The Most Beautiful Villages of France), Lagrasse sits only 16 km from this splendid abode. Here, the well-preserved streets whisper stories from times gone by, offering an authentic taste of French provincial life, perfect for expats and overseas buyers seeking something profoundly unique in both lifestyle and investment.
The climate here is a tapestry of Mediterranean warm summers and mild winters, making it an all-year-round destination. Picture spring strolls through blooming vineyards or late summer evenings with a glass of local wine under a canopy of stars on your own 90 m² terrace, which is bordered by ancient olive trees and an azure pool—a perfect retreat to indulge in all seasons.
Now, on to the house itself. Spanning across a generous-sized plot of 4210 m², this property boasts:
- 8 Bedrooms each accompanied by a shower and toilet, ensuring privacy and comfort
- Spacious living area over 60 m² creating a haven for communal gatherings
- Private apartment with separate entrance to ensure personal privacy
- Large terrace and preserved walled garden featuring ancient olive trees
- Inviting swimming pool for those sun-soaked days
The house itself is in good condition but offers exciting potential for the right visionary. There is a bit of renovation adventure needed, particularly in the left wing of the apartment due to previous fire damage—making it a perfect fit for those with a penchant for DIY project. This section demands about €97,000 HT for repairs, providing an opportunity for customization that adds personal touches and increases in value.
Lagrasse delivers a tranquil village life but is equally in proximity to all necessary amenities:
- Grocery store, pharmacy, bakery, and doctor mere minutes away
- Easily accessible Carcassonne Airport, just a 25-minute drive
- Reach Paris, the UK and beyond with seamless connections
- Larger cities like Montpellier and Toulouse are about 1.5 hours away
Daily life here is peppered with leisure activities or simply soaking in nature's beauty, from vineyard tours and wine-tasting experiences to hiking trails exploring the sweeping Corbières hills, the region boasts of rewarding pursuits for both mind and body. Community events often rekindle the village’s medieval roots, and regular markets showcase the best of local produce and artisans' crafts, enhancing the allure of rural living.
This is not just a purchase, it's an opportunity to weave one's own chapter into a tapestry of history and culture. Living in a home here isn’t just about the walls but the life that fills them. You’re looking at more than just a house; you're considering integrating into a landscape that hums with the simplicity and satisfaction of a life well lived.
Don't let this rare chance slip by; whether you're an investor or an expat dreaming of a French escape, this property offers not only a house but a way of life deeply rooted in the essence of southern France. If you feel drawn to continue this legacy, I encourage you to reach out promptly to explore what could soon become your own corner of this enchanting world.
