Elegant property near Beziers

Landscaped garden of 5,568 sq.m

If ever there was a French chateau straight from a fairytale book but with great factual potential then this elegant property near Beziers is surely it! With all the architectural characteristics and details, right down its “pepper pot” towers, of a classical chateau this gem, plus its exceptional swimming pool, has to be seen to believed!

Yet its potential is far from fiction, because everything about it, including its very reasonable 1.19 m euro price tag, spells class and quality making it beyond doubt an ideal candidate for a sound investment with all the ingredients of a superb return.

In recent years the three-storey 400 sq.m chateau has been substantially upgraded, from top to bottom, so that all of its six bedrooms can now provide a high standard of accommodation. And with 180 sq.m of loft space plus a cellar of 150 sq.m there seems no limits to the possibilities for a new, imaginative owner.

The private, landscaped grounds are of some 5,568 sq.m with a ‘gatekeeper’ lodge and a fine stock of mature, centenary trees and shrubs that are typical of the Languedoc and its favourable climate.

Getting to the outside world from this remarkable property presents no problems. On the contrary, just 15 minutes away is the ancient city of Beziers with its abundance of cultural and gastronomic delights. The Mediterranean coast and those fabulous beaches are only 30 minutes away.

Also, within 20 minutes, you can be on the fast A9 auto route that will speed you northwards to Montpellier, with its international airport, and onto the Carmargue. Or south to Narbonne, with its excellent TGV rail connection to Paris, or you could carry on to the Pyrenees, Spain and Barcelona, which are just a few hours away.
