This property benefits from an exceptional situation and is located in the Minervois Corbières area, Languedoc Roussillon, South of France, in lovely countryside and at the same time near a village with all shops and a restaurant. Town, beaches and airports are also within easy reach. A beautiful lane flanked by olive trees leads to the property hidden behind the large park and a beautiful wrought iron gate. The numerous buildings are set around a very large courtyard with old plane trees. The main dwelling and the house with the B&B open onto the park with a large pond (to re-establish) and an orangery to be restored. Both houses have been restored to a very high and contemporary standing. The Gîtes have been renewed to a more modest level but can be immediately rented out. Further there is a fairly new reception room of 200m² with a catering area, ideal for weddings or other events. The large outbuildings can all be converted into living space and even further construction is allowed. Planning permit is easy to obtain since the property is already in a zone where touristic activities are allowed. It is a real dream for a business with all one can think of, as well as around wine tourism!Description of the buildings

Grounds
The grounds of almost 20ha includes
- 1ha of park with a water basin of 25m diameter, in need of restoration
- 16ha of arable fields all possible to irrigate
- 70 olive trees along a beautiful drive in
It would be possible to replant vineyards, the classification would be AOC and IGP.

The property has a protected Château brand for the wine as well as for the tourism activity which is sold with the property. The olive harvest gets pressed in the nearby specialised mill so own olive oil can be enjoyed.

The buildings being in the middle of the 20ha of grounds benefit from a nice protection belt and offer therefore complete privacy. The entire property can be irrigated with agriculture water. The park needs some loving care and will be quickly back at its glory.

The property benefits from town water and the several septic tanks are not conforming to the latest legal requirements and will need to get in order after purchase depending on the project. Easy access to the property.

General condition
The Maison de Maître has been renovated on the GF and first floor; the last level still needs to be renovated. The second house has been totally restored to a high standard and is ideal for a B&B business since all 5 bedrooms are en-suite, TV and wi-fi throughout. Heating by reversible air condition. The Gîtes have been recently restored too and are ready to be rent out. They are still very nice but not to the same standard as the 2 houses. Here is electric heating and original wooden simple glazed windows.

The numerous outbuildings are set around a courtyard and are structurally sound. All roofs have been renewed or restored of the actually used buildings and the wine cellar. The other buildings still need roof work as soon as they would like to be used. Those buildings are all empty except the wine cellar and most have lovely high ceilings. All buildings can be subject to planning permit converted into living space, what is very unusual. Even a certain amount of buildings could be built in addition to the convertible and existing ones.

Comments
A beautiful and rare property in a peaceful and superb environment whilst close to all! With a fabulous business ready to go. Huge scope for further development.  A property not to be missed out!
