This charming and spacious property is a 19th Century former winemaker’s house with converted barn. The 202m2 house is on three levels, plus a large cellar, with a garden of approx 120m2, and a fully renovated and independent gite of 79m2. The Main House : Upon entering through stained glass double doors, there is a lovely spacious hall (18m2) with an elegant Languedocienne staircase. All the rooms on the ground floor have high ceilings, orginal tiled floors and marble fireplaces. The kitchen is a good size (18m2) and wellequipped with a large gas hob, electric oven, American fridgefreezer and plenty of storage space. Off the hall there is a WC and laundry room. There is a large, lightfilled living room (34m2) which looks over the garden. The fireplace is functioning. Access to the garden is through a former stable with an ancient arch, flagstone floor and original manger. The first floor of the house has high ceilings and wooden floors, with marble fireplaces in each bedroom. Two of the bedrooms are southfacing with lovely views of the Pyrennees one of these has a private terrace. There is a third bedroom, a wellappointed bathroom with bath and toilet, and a second bathroom with a shower and toilet. The second floor comprises of a vast open space with high ceilings with roof windows. This is currently used as a yoga room and storage area. There are two store rooms, one of which was evidently used for making cheese, with the old racks still intact. The walled garden is a delightful, private space with established shrubs and trees. There would be room for a small pool. There is access to the cellar, which is under the whole house, thus 75m2. At the end of the garden the barn has been converted into a gite. The Gite : The ground floor comprises of a large, wellappointed living area (48m2) with fullyequipped kitchen and access through double doors to the garden. There are exposed stone walls and the space has been sympathetically renovated. There is separate street access for independent living. Downstairs there is also a WC. Upstairs is a large bedroom with a bathroom with WC and shower. There are exposed beams and views over the village to the Pyrenees. This gite could be used as a source of revenue either from holiday rentals (as has been done in the past) or long term rents. Equally, it is good guest accommodation or could be used as a workspace. This is a wellproportioned house, offering lightfilled and elegant living space with many character features. The garden is haven of peace and the gite offers many benefits. This is a real gem in the heart of beautiful Caunes Minervois, and we look forward to showing it to you.
