Renovated family home in Lavelanet, featuring 5 bedrooms, garage, parking, terrace, garden and solar panels

A spacious, bright and beautifully modernised property, offering a wealth of indoor and outdoor living space, a lovely garden, stunning views towards the Pyrenees and the added potential to create a swimming pool.

The detached house has been fully renovated and includes a fully equipped kitchen, a large living room and 5 bedrooms, as well as generous additional space on the ground floor. Set in a peaceful and pleasant neighbourhood, yet just a few minutes from the centre of Lavelanet and all local amenities.

On the ground floor, the garage provides space for two vehicles and also includes a workshop, utility/technical area, washing facilities, and an extra shower and WC.

Also on this level is a charming "smoking" room, warm and inviting, with a fireplace and an opening onto the orangery. This part of the house also includes a study or potential studio, together with the bright orangery overlooking the garden, providing a particularly pleasant additional living space.

Upstairs are the main living areas. The modern, fully fitted kitchen opens onto the terrace and enjoys lovely, far-reaching views towards the Pyrenees. The bright living room features a wood-burning stove and large patio doors for access to the terrace on two sides.

A spacious hallway leads to five bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study and another as a second, air-conditioned sitting room. The bathroom and separate WC complete this floor.

All the bedrooms have wooden floors, while the other rooms have tiled flooring.

The kitchen and living room open onto a large east- and south-facing terrace, offering lovely open views across the garden and, in particular, towards the Pyrenean mountains. On a clear day, you can see the Château de Montségur, as well as the peaks of Soularac, Saint-Barthélemy and Fourcat.

The property also benefits from a large, established and fully enclosed garden, with a gated entrance and several private parking spaces. The 1,170 m² garden includes an old chicken coop, several fruit trees, rose bushes, a blue spruce, a magnolia and a variety of other established plants.

The layout of the grounds also makes it possible to consider installing a swimming pool, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

For comfort, the house is equipped with programmable electric radiators with motion sensors, a wood-burning stove in the living room and two heat pumps.

The roof is fitted with 18 Axitec photovoltaic panels, each rated at 330 Wp, giving a total installed capacity of 6 kWp. Installed in 2020, they come with a 15-year warranty.

The house also benefits from a video security system, solar-powered roller shutters on almost all windows and doors, PVC double-glazed windows, and two hot-water cylinders.
