Overall, this house is packed full of rural charm, yet offers a good level of modern comfort with insulation, double glazing, effective heating, recent kitchen and bathroom facilities and a good eye for space and light in its renovation.

It is located on the edge of a small village which Is home to locals who have lived here for generations as well as to people who come to enjoy the cooler mountain air in summer, the warm atmosphere all year round and the excellent local produce. The village bar/restaurant is due to reopen soon, having been rebuilt. There is a small supermarket/grocery store which offers a surprising range of products. The owner is happy to chat to you about your needs and will try to source items that you require if he doesn't carry them in stock.

Village life is surprisingly vibrant. The summer fête is a lively affair with a popular flea market and culminating in a fancy dress party every year. The tennis court and sports hall are just down the road. A number of artists live in or near the village, drawing inspiration from the mountain scenery and deep peace of the forests and lakes. Horse riding, mountain biking, hiking and other outdoor activities are all on your doorstep. A short drive will take you to one of several local lakes for swimming or fishing. And if you feel like a little injection of urban energy, you can take a drive to buzzing Carcassonne or one of several quaint market towns in the area. Further afield, a day trip to the Mediterranean is easily within reach and the Pyrenees, for the skiing, are not too far away either.

This house has potential as a long or short-term rental investment, family home or second home. With good internet access it could be a great distance-working base. Contact me for more information, including a short video tour.
