This magnificent property is located in the greater Ceret area in the Pyrénées Orientales, about 10km to the nearest village and school (with school bus at the end of the road), half an hour to the nearest town with all amenities.
This is a unique property, ideal for lovers of nature and an authentic medieval atmosphere. The main house has been completely renovated and has panoramic views. The rooms are large offering much space and there is a lovely south facing terrace with a stunning view across the valley to the mountains and Spain beyond.
The property offers many possibilities as there is already about 500m² renovated in the main house; the 2 Gîtes, outbuildings and barns are partially renovated or to be renovated totalling over 500m². The location is absolutely quiet, being right in the middle of nature, with its own water, clean air, and mountain climate, with the Mediterranean Sea just one hour’s drive away. The property is reached by a private lane about 2 km long. There are many hiking trails directly around the property. |
