Argens-Minervois, Languedoc-Roussillon 11200

Priced to sell This property benefits from an exceptional situation and is located in the Minervois Corbires 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 Gtes have been renewed to a more modest level but can be immediately rented out. Further there is a reception room of 200m with a catering area, ideal for weddings or other events, to be approved. The large outbuildings can all be converted into living space and even further construction is allowed.
