Discreetly positioned just above street level, this remarkable property has been transformed into a characterful loft-style home with distinctive industrial aesthetics.
Where large gates once allowed tractors to enter with freshly harvested grapes, elegant arched openings now frame the space, flooding the interior with natural light and creating an impressive sense of scale. The building's original purpose is still subtly present, giving the home a unique atmosphere that blends history with bold architectural design.
Reimagined in 2018, the property now offers 267 m2 of living space, where generous volumes and open perspectives take centre stage. The main living areas are positioned above a vast 130 m2 garage at street level, enhancing both practicality and privacy.
At the heart of the home lies an exceptional 122 m2 open-plan living space, embodying the true spirit of loft living. High ceilings, expansive volumes and a seamless flow between kitchen, dining and living room areas create a space designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort.
A place full of character, ideal for long gatherings with family and friends or relaxed Mediterranean living. The layout is predominantly on one level, offering ease of movement, with six well-proportioned bedrooms featuring reversible air conditioning and individual washbasins.
Two of the bedrooms are located on an upper level, accessible via a staircase, providing additional flexibility and separation of space. Every detail reflects a commitment to comfort and contemporary living.
An infrared sauna, heated swimming pool, high-performance insulation, and an excellent DPE rating of B underline the quality of construction and energy efficiency. Solar panels (9 kW), thermodynamic water systems, and private water wells further enhance its eco-conscious credentials.
Outdoor living is equally appealing. A generous 100 m2 terrace extends the living space towards the heated pool, creating a natural focal point for summer living, while a second terrace offers additional privacy and versatility. At street level, the large garage and additional outdoor space offer numerous possibilities-whether for storage, hobbies, or future projects.
A further highlight of the location is the proximity to the Orbieu river, just a few minutes' walk from the property, where you can enjoy swimming and cooling off during the warmer months.

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.
