Charming, typical village house with garden in the Minervois riverside village of Puicheric.

Charming and spacious village house, formerly part of a country estate, offering almost 230m2 of habitable space, with 2 living rooms, 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, 2 artist’s studios and a beautiful walled Mediterranean garden, located in a quiet street in the centre of this attractive, busy village close to the Canal du Midi.
The house was completely renovated in the 90s, retaining its character and many interesting period features such as the old terracotta tiles, the staircase and carpentry. There are 2 entrances onto the house – one from the garden and one from an alley. On the ground floor, there is a living room (currently used as an artist’s studio), a kitchen/dining room, a utility room and another artist’s studio, which can be accessed directly from the alley. This could make a 5th bedroom, if desired.
On the next floor, there are 2 bedrooms and a bathroom, as well as a salon. The top floor currently constitutes an apartment with an open plan living room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.
Outside, the delightful south facing walled garden is around 245m2 and is completely private. There is a pleasant eating area directly outside the house and there is also a steam room/hammam and private parking for two cars.
This interesting property seduces with its character and charm. It has the flexibility to be either a large family home or a smaller home with a lettable part, working equally well as a permanent residence or a holiday home. It is well located in a village with tourist attractions, notably, white water rafting, and is close to other local attractions such as Lac Jourres and the Cite at Carcassonne.
