Full Description
A Characterful Village House in Fabrezan with Courtyard and Lift and Independent Studio and two bed apartment.

Flexible accommodation with separate living quarters and an independent ground studio.
Private courtyard garden ideal for long lunches, evening aperitifs and outdoor entertaining.

Ground Floor
Two entrances open directly from la Place into welcoming living spaces that flow naturally around the heart of the home. The ground floor offers a fully equipped kitchen, salon/library, accessible shower room with Wc, lift access and generous storage space. Large entry room with laundry area. A second entrance provides independent access to the upper floors if desired.
French doors and a gentle ramp lead from the salon into the peaceful courtyard, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Independent Courtyard Studio
Nestled within the former convent buildings, the charming ground-floor studio enjoys its own entrance through an old stone archway. It offers open-plan living and kitchen space, a shower room with Wc and separate storage area, all enhanced by beautiful arched windows that hint at the property's historic past. There is a mezzanine level currently accessible by a ladder but easily sufficient space to put in a spiral staircase.
First Floor
Back to the main house, the first floor features a spacious principal bedroom accessible by both lift and staircase, complete with en-suite bathroom. A second room overlooking la Place currently serves as an inspiring office and reading room but would make a lovely second bedroom.
Second Floor Apartment

A House Full of Possibilities

The accessible layout also makes it particularly suitable for those requiring independent living arrangements or space for carers and extended family.
Village Life
Fabrezan is one of the hidden gems of the Corbières, surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills and Cathar-country landscapes. Despite its tranquil atmosphere, the village offers everyday conveniences including a bakery, restaurants, shops, pharmacy, medical centre, primary school and a lively artistic community.
