Perched on a hill surrounded by its own private land, benefiting from fantastic 360 degree panoramic views of the rolling hills and even the Pyrenean mountains, this estate is exceptional.

Just a short drive away to the nearest international airports (Carcassonne and Toulouse) and close to all shops, schools, and bakeries, this private estate offers a living area of 575 m2, divided between a main house and several fully independent houses/apartments, which could serve as caretaker's or concierge's houses, holiday cottages, or guest rooms, subject to obtaining the necessary permits.

In addition, there are some outbuildings which provide further opportunity for development.

The property's wow factor is the fantastic private pool, outside dining area and terraces with breathtaking views that are really hard to beat.

The grounds are substantial and would be suitable for growing an orchard (olive trees or similar), for horse lovers and even, subject to necessary permissions, for other tourism or revenue generating opportunities such as camping and glamping.

While the property offers a genuine sense of privacy and tranquility, it remains conveniently connected-not just to local amenities, but also to international transport links.

Located less than two hours from the Mediterranean coast, the Pyrenees ski resorts, and even Spain, it is ideally situated for use as a permanent family residence or an appealing destination for holidaymakers and tourists alike.

Buying a Property in France

1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.

The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.

Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.

2. Paying the Deposit

Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.

3. On Completion

Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.

During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
