Carcassonne, Languedoc-Roussillon 11000

A formal five bedroom town house with very large landscaped garden and mature trees of 1100 m2 and an independent 2 bedroom apartment. Each bedroom in the main house has a dedicated shower room and WC. All is in excellent condition, much of it the work of professional tradespeople and artists. Phonic doors, the highest quality insulation, and well designed electrics are features. On the ground floor a series of large rooms with high ceilings give a welcome feeling of space. The first two reception rooms accessed from the garden side span front to back and flood the house with light. There is another large room currently given over to an office and this is opposite a generously sized kitchen. The kitchen leads to an enclosed breakfast room. A very large garden room completes the superb downstairs living space. And there is more. At the front of the house is a door to the street, and a multi-purpose room used as storage. A further storage (boiler) room leads to a large cellar with a well. The first floor features 4 themed large en-suite bedrooms. There is a further full height suite in the converted roof space. The separate apartment, one time owners accommodation, offers a living room, kitchen, and bedroom with adjacent shower/WC. A second large bedroom is on the mezzanine. Excellent condition throughout. Until recently it was run as a successful themed bed and breakfast, following the passions of the owners and appealing to a diverse range of clients. The property offers off-road parking and also a reserved space on road. Situated on the edge of Bastide St Louis, a full complement of commerce, culture and restaurants is within a short walk. The UNESCO World Heritage site of La Cité is eminently walkable. Carcassonne offers an airport linking directly to the UK, Ireland, Portugal, North Africa, Sardinia and Belgium, a TGV railway station, and a direct link to the motorway network.
