8 Bed House for sale
Tuchan, Aude, Languedoc-Roussillon, France
Full Description
Nestled in the heart of the charming wine village of Tuchan, surrounded by the renowned Fitou and Corbières vineyards and the dramatic landscapes of Cathar Country, this remarkable former olive mill dates back to the early 16th century. Meticulously renovated to a high standard, it offers a rare blend of historic character, modern comfort and exceptional outdoor space.
Set on a generous 1,428m² plot, the property enjoys a wonderfully private setting despite its central village location. The beautifully landscaped gardens, mature trees and swimming pool create a peaceful oasis rarely found in the centre of a village.
The main house offers spacious accommodation arranged over three floors. The ground floor comprises an inviting entrance hall, a warm and welcoming kitchen with dining area, a comfortable lounge, a guest WC and access to the cellar. The first floor features five bedrooms, including two en-suite rooms, together with a family bathroom. On the second floor are two further bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities, and a large room currently used as a gym.
A range of outbuildings accompany the main house, including a self-contained summer apartment, a workshop and a barn, currently used as a garage and storage area, presenting exciting scope for further development, subject to the necessary permissions.
The property is particularly well suited to hospitality or holiday accommodation, and the sale offers the added advantage of leaving a substantial amount of furniture and equipment in place. Beds, bed linen, garden furniture and much of the equipment required for the existing business can remain, allowing a new owner to continue the activity with minimal delay and, in practical terms, be ready to welcome guests almost immediately.
While rich in history and character, the property has been thoughtfully upgraded to provide modern-day comfort, with underfloor heating, reversible air conditioning and energy-efficient heating systems ensuring a pleasant living environment throughout the seasons.
A truly unique property offering space, privacy and versatility in one of the most picturesque villages of the Corbières. Whether acquired as a prestigious family home, a hospitality business or a luxury holiday retreat, this exceptional property offers the rare opportunity to combine a character home with an established, ready-to-use hospitality setting.
