Estate Spanning 42 Hectares

Property Description

An exceptional private estate in the heart of the Aude – 42 hectares of enclosed land, peace and unspoilt nature.

Set within the Carcassonne–Limoux–Bram triangle at an altitude of 300 metres, this fully enclosed private estate extends over 42 hectares and offers a rare way of life, completely secluded and free from any disturbance. Bordering woodland and surrounded by protected countryside, the property provides a true sense of escape, making it ideal for projects centered around nature, sustainable farming or hospitality ventures.

The former 19th-century farmhouse has been carefully renovated and offers approximately 388 sqm of living space, including a separate 53 sqm gite. The interior spaces are warm, flexible and well balanced, comprising a large fitted kitchen, a sitting room with fireplace, a master suite, four further bedrooms, a gym and various utility rooms. Comfort, simplicity and authenticity have been brought together while respecting the character of the original building.

Outside, the scale and character of the estate truly come into their own. The 42 hectares of fully fenced land include a mix of meadows, woodland and walking tracks, as well as a natural pond (etang), a productive orchard of 850 almond trees and a large area suited to permaculture, agroforestry or a wildlife park. With no neighbouring buildings and complete tranquillity, the site offers outstanding potential for eco-lodges, unusual accommodation or a green tourism project.

A 155 sqm garage, workshop, kennels and a range of additional facilities complete this forward-thinking, largely self-sufficient estate.
