| A deceptively large maison de vigneron currently run as a successful Gîte and Chambres d’Hôtes business. The house is situated in a small village with a good range of shops and a school. It is only 30 minutes from the Mediterranean beaches and 30 minutes from St. Chinian, Roquebrun and the mountains of the Haut-Languedoc.
The house consists of five independent apartments with a total of 12 bedrooms, a large garage (60 m2), a games room (50 m2) and two large terraces (70 and 20 m2). The owners live in the largest apartment and rent out the other four.
Because of the ideal location of the house, bookings are taken all year round from local people as well as from holidaymakers and house hunters. The present and potential income can be discussed with the owners at the time of viewing.
