Two charming houses with private courtyard and parking in friendly village on the edge of the Black Mountains

A chance to buy 2 adjacent village houses, with courtyard and large garage. The property lends itself to a number of different uses, and offers scope to further develop the garage and attached store-rooms. With 2 separate entrances, and space for off-road parking, this is a rare find.

The main house, set behind the courtyard, comprises a kitchen / dining room, living room and shower room on the ground floor, with a spiral staircase leading to a large bedroom and bathroom.
This house also has a cellar with access to an adjacent street, and a large attached garage with fitness room and storage space which offers conversion potential.

The smaller house, at the front of the plot, has a large open plan kitchen / living room with wood-burning stove, and a spiral staircase to bedroom and bathroom. This house has a large balcony with views to the Pyrenees.

Both houses have recently installed reversible air-conditioning units in the bedroom and living area.

A rare opportunity to acquire two separate houses together, set in a peaceful village in the Black Mountains, yet just 20 minutes from Carcassonne and its international airport. With individual entrances, off-street parking and a shared enclosed courtyard garden, this versatile property offers excellent potential as a family home with guest accommodation, rental opportunity, or multi-generational living.
The main house offers comfortable accommodation with a kitchen/dining room (22m²), living room (13m²) and shower room with WC (3m²) on the ground floor. A spiral staircase leads to a generous bedroom (18m²) with its own en-suite bathroom (5m²). From the kitchen, stairs descend to a full-height cellar (22m²), currently fitted as a laundry room and benefiting from direct street access.
Attached to the house is a large garage (35m²) with internal access from the living room. Beyond the garage is a fully equiped fitness room (17m²), with a mezzanine above and stairs leading to street level below. This space offers exciting scope to create further living accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions.
The second, smaller house is completely independent and full of charm. The ground floor comprises an open-plan living space with kitchen corner (20m²) and wood-burning stove. A spiral staircase leads to the first-floor bedroom (10m²) with built-in wardrobes, a bathroom and separate WC (7m²). From here, a delightful balcony (5m²) enjoys distant views towards the Pyrenees — an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of the setting.
Outside, the property benefits from two separate vehicle entrances providing off-street parking, along with a fully enclosed courtyard garden shared between the houses.
Both houses are equipped with recently installed reversible air-conditioning units, electric heaters in the bathrooms, full double glazing with insect screens, and some electric roller shutters.
Located in the friendly and traditional village of Villanière, surrounded by beautiful countryside with numerous walking and cycling trails, this property perfectly balances rural charm with convenience. The commercial centre at Pont Rouge is just 15 minutes away, while Carcassonne and its international airport can be reached in around 20 minutes.
