In the lively village of Olonzac, nestled in the sun-drenched Minervois wine region of southern France, lies a rare opportunity: a spacious apartment on the top floor of a 19th-century château, built in 1891 for a local winegrower and his family.

Once two separate apartments, now seamlessly combined into one generous home, this second-floor property (no lift) stretches across the entire north-facing side of the building — offering natural coolness in summer and views over the surrounding village rooftops.

The apartment is part of a château divided into 10 homes, inhabited by an active and international co-ownership. The building is well-maintained, with recently repainted shutters (2023) and a shared garden with a barbecue area in front. A stone staircase at the front of the château leads up to the main entrance, where you'll find a spacious communal hall with bicycle storage. From there, a grand Caunes marble staircase takes you to the first floor and further up to the top-floor apartment.

Inside, the apartment offers a rare layout: a spacious kitchen of 30 m² perfect for entertaining, a luminous 29 m² living room with high ceilings and skylights (added in 2020), and a central passage with double doors leading to a daybed where you can relax and enjoy the open view.

There are three large bedrooms:

Bedroom 1: 14 m² with a 5 m² en-suite bathroom (shower cabin, toilet, sink)
Bedroom 2: 16 m² with en-suite bathroom (bathtub, toilet, sink)
Bedroom 3: 15 m² with en-suite bathroom (shower cabin, toilet, sink, built-in closet)

The apartment is accessed via two separate entrances on the top floor, illuminated by a skylight.

Heating is electric (radiators).

Parking: no private parking, but easy on-street parking and a free car park just 2 minutes away.
