A rare and precious property

Let’s begin the tour: we walk along the lake, already under its spell, and the automatic gate opens – suspense!!!
There, we discover a superb villa sitting proudly amidst flowerbeds, paths and other landscaped features. Charming is the word that best describes it, typical of the villas in this corner of Occitanie, with a slate roof and a beautiful façade…
Built in 1976, it has been completely and tastefully renovated using high-quality, high-performance materials. Its large bay windows, facing the lake of course, allow you to enjoy the scenery at all times!
We enter via the lovely sheltered side terrace, complete with an awning and flanked by beautiful flower beds. Here, we discover the living area with its well-equipped, light-filled open-plan kitchen, and the beautiful combined living and dining room, where an imposing stone fireplace with an insert provides cosy warmth and reinforces the rustic mountain style. This living space covers a total of 53 m². You’ll be captivated by the view through the floor-to-ceiling windows; the water is truly magical and the lake draws us in constantly, like a magnet!!!
A hallway adjoins the living area, leading to a bedroom with a view of the lake (of course), a bathroom and a separate toilet. This layout, with a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor, is a real bonus to consider as it’s highly sought-after!
At the end of the corridor, a front door opens onto the semi-enclosed garage area – practical and functional when you’ve just come back from the shops!
Back in the living area, a staircase leads us upstairs to two interconnected bedrooms, with space for an office if desired – to be adapted to suit your needs.
Back in the garage area, we can access a summer kitchen with its fireplace, laundry and storage space. This room is a real bonus with its large bay window facing the lake, and right next to the adjoining carport is a space for storing firewood. A space that will be perfect as a pantry, for barbecues and cooking during meals with family and/or friends.
Technical features: aluminium double-glazed windows, high-performance wood-burning stove, fibre insulation, new slate roofing, compliant drainage system – everything is ready for you to move in!

Moving on to the exterior, we never tire of admiring the views, the landscaped gardens filled with flowers and trees.
The large enclosed plot surrounding the house features a vegetable garden, a chicken coop, an additional carport, workshop sheds and a large wood store. These outbuildings are a real asset and will be perfect for meeting your space requirements.

This property is a real gem, nestled amongst beautiful trees and peaceful countryside, enhanced by the tranquillity of the water!! So let’s not wait any longer – we look forward to welcoming you for a viewing; you’ll love it as much as we do, here in our beautiful Occitanie!
