This stunning 17th century townhouse is in the heart of the medieval city of Carcassonne, within walking distance of shops, cafes and restaurants. The high ceilings and large windows give this home a real sense of space, light and luxury. There's a roof terrace, with views of the city and the black mountains. The airport at Carcassonne is 15mins away. As well as the perfect 'lock and leave' home this would also make a very attractive letting proposition.

Location:
The property is located in the centre of Carcassonne on a quiet residential street. Carcassonne has a fantastic array of restaurants, bars, theatres, food markets, shops etc, all of which are on the doorstep. The Cite Mediavale (as the old walled town is known) is a short walk from the property.
The fortified city of Carcassonne looks like something out of a children's storybook when it's seen from afar. A Unesco World Heritage Site since 1997, it's most people's idea of the perfect medieval castle.
The city is surrounded by vineyards and castles and ancient villages. The nearest golf course is at the domaine d'Auriac, 5 kms away. The Mediterranean can be reached in 50 minutes by car. Perpignan, Toulouse, the Pyrennees and the Spanish border are also within easy reach.
Carcassonne Airport with budget flight connections to the UK and elsewhere is 6 kms away and the railway station is just 1 km from the property. There are also airports at Beziers and Toulouse.
