Set in its own grounds in the heart of the popular village of Villeneuve-Minervois, this delightful property offers many possibilities for comfortable family living and business or artistic ventures. The main house, on 2 floors, was built around 1920, and has retained many of its period features such as beautiful marble flooring throughout the ground floor, a stylish 1920s staircase and lovely quarry tiles on the first floor.
Walking into the entrance hall, to the left is the spacious living room (34m2) with an attractive stone fireplace with insert. To the right is the fully fitted kitchen and dining area (26m2), leading to a laundry room with separate w.c. Sliding doors open onto a sunny back patio with built-in barbecue grill. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom (13.5m2), with a marble fireplace and door opening onto the patio.
The 1920s staircase leads up to the first floor landing, where you will find a double bedroom (14m2) with adjoining bedroom (8.4m2), 2 further double bedrooms (14.5 and 16.6m2), a large family bathroom with bathtub and shower cabin, double basin and w.c; a shower room with washbasin; and separate w.c. All the bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, and there are 2 large linen cupboards on the landing.
Wooden stairs lead up to the 2nd floor attics, 3 rooms totalling 110m2, which are ready to convert into additional living space if so desired, as they are already fitted with windows and radiators.
The separate guest house, built in local stone, was originally the wine cave, and the first floor has been lovingly converted into a stunning 120m2 living space with high, beamed ceilings, a light-filled living area and open-plan kitchen with woodburner. The double bedroom with ensuite bathroom is cleverly partitioned off from the living area, while not interrupting the flow of space. French windows lead from the dining area and kitchen onto the 27m2 veranda which runs the length of the building, overlooking the garden, perfect for alfresco dining and enjoying the magnificent sunsets of the South of France. The 120m2 ground floor offers a multitude of possibilities, perhaps as a gallery or wellness centre, and has a laundry room.
Adjacent to the main house is the double garage and pool house. Stairs lead up from the garage to the luminous first-floor 92m2 studio/workshop, with 4m beamed ceilings and a woodburning stove.
The property is accessed through electric gates, and the central courtyard provides plenty of parking space.
The house has oil-fired central heating, and a energy-efficient solar-powered water heating system.
The surrounding gardens are laid to grass, with several mature fruit trees and vegetables, and surrounded by lush greenery that provide complete privacy. The lovely 12x3m pool is securely fenced off from the garden.
The versatile accommodation offers many possibilities for a creative or business venture, and its location in a beautiful Minervois village with its tree-lined avenues, makes this an opportunity not to be missed for anyone dreaming of living in the South of France.
Villeneuve-Minervois benefits from excellent amenities, including grocery store, pharmacy, baker, butcher, greengrocer, wine shop, hair salon, 2 restaurants and café, sports hall, football stadium, and a truffle museum! Situated in the 'golden triangle' of black truffle production, there are several events throughout the year honouring this gem of the culinary world.
The closest airports are Carcassonne (18km), Toulouse (85km), Béziers (72km). Train services (tgv) from Carcassonne and Narbonne. There is a regular bus service to Carcassonne.
