Elegant detached 'Maison de Maitre', built in 1890, offering around 150m2 of habitable space with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, large garden with pool, garage and non-adjoining constructible plot of nearly 300m2.

This well-proportioned house was completely renovated in 2004, preserving many period features throughout.

Ground Floor: a wide hall opens onto a living room and kitchen on one side and onto a dining room and bedroom (with en-suite bathroom) on the other. A door from the kitchen opens onto a large terrace on the side of the house with swimming pool and fully equipped summer kitchen.

First Floor: there are 4 bedrooms (one with an en-suite shower room) and a family bathroom. The entire attic floor has been converted into a further bedroom, approximately 18m2 of which has full head height. There are some lovely views of the village and countryside beyond from this room.

Outside: there is a secluded graveled front garden with mature trees for shaded eating and a gate to the side terrace. This terrace is fully tiled, with a 10x5m salt pool, which is heated by solar energy. To the end of the terrace is a raised fully fitted summer kitchen. From the summer kitchen there is access to a shower room and to the garage. Across from the house is a non-adjoining parcel of land that is currently a vegetable plot but which is constructible.

On the whole, the property is in very good condition and very well maintained. It would make a great family home or an investment property, with good summer rental potential.

The department of Herault is in the Languedoc-Roussillon region located in the south of France. It is surrounded by the Pyrenees-Orientales, Ariege, Tarn and Aude departments.

Widely regarded as possibly the most dynamic department in Languedoc Roussillon with Montpellier as its capital and the popular seaside resorts of Sete and Grande Motte bringing in millions of tourists every summer, the Herault department is certainly busy and growing.

But despite all the activity along the coast, the interior of Herault is as beautiful and unspoiled as it has always been. The Herault countryside is glorious, driving away from the coast into the foothills of the Black Mountains you can get lost in an ocean of vines.

Villages in the department of Herault are incredibly pretty. Roquebrun is stunning, with its bridge and old water mill on the river Orb. St Guilhem-le-Desert is also beautiful - and one of Languedoc's top tourist spots.

Herault is also a favourite of Brits looking to move to the area. Pezenas and Lodeve are both popular towns - Pezenas used to be the region's capital and is becoming quite chic.

In short - the department combines beautiful countryside with the buzz and glamour of a major city (Montpellier).
