#This property is an architectural gem, famous in the area for its unique art nouveau façade, fashioned in 1910 by the architect Étienne Gardien and sculptor Joseph Guilhem. It also offers a splendid interior, designed to impress and entertain, once enjoyed by the French ambassador to Finland. With its cement tiles, soaring ceilings, parquet floors, ornate mouldings, brass fittings and marble fireplaces it conjures up a feeling of opulence belonging to the time of King Louis V.
The building was sympathetically renovated in 2019, with full central heating, fibre broadband, quality bathroom fittings and modern plumbing. There is a lift.
On the ground floor you will find a large reception hall, bar, fully equipped eat-in kitchen (fashioned from Caune-Minervois marble) with range cooker and American fridge-freezer, spacious living and dining rooms and a private garden. Large glass doors leading out to the private courtyard garden.
Its imposing staircase gives access to 4 very generous bedrooms (of 25-35m2) ensuite bedrooms.

On the second floor are further large 2 bedrooms sharing a bathroom.
There is an apartment with 2 bedrooms on this floor so it could either be a large family home or a very special Chambre d'hotes holiday residence.
Set a few minutes walk from the centre of the Bastide in Carcassonne, you are close to the shops, the large Saturday markets and smaller mid week markets, musical events, theatre, great restaurants and bars, The train station is a 10 minute walk way away, and the airport only 4 kms.
Easy access to the autoroutes and coast.

A really good investment for someone
