Property. Ref: EUR-527IWS Date Added: 01-March-2010 Map / Approx. Location

If you like village life, enjoy the outdoors, appreciate a stunning view all whilst being less than ten minutes from a bustling village near the Canal du Midi, I have the right place for you.
This stone built home was once a workers cottage perched high above the river. The accommodation is very well presented and could be either a great holiday home, a real escape from the rigours and hectic noise of everyday life, or a full-time residence, as it is now. Downstairs is a dining kitchen and living room plus an open area that can be incorporated into the living room. There is also a laundry room and the large windows that allow a perfect view of the river and the Alaric Mountain with the vineyards as far as the eye can see. On the first level there are three bedrooms and a bathroom.
The garden is absolutely magnificent. There is a summer kitchen and plenty of shade provided by the large fig trees. Completely enclosed with breath taking views and the relaxing sound of the river running by provides the perfect haven for writers or artists to find their inner selves. It's also a fantastic place for people who work under enormous pressure and who wish to leave behind the hustle and bustle of the city - whether for a few weeks a year or even permanently. This type of property comes up for sale infrequently and guaranteed to charm you.
