Price: € 325 000 | Ref.: 3694 | Views: 5

The building has its origins in the 18th century. It is a 300 year old winegrower's house with an attached wine storage. It has been expanded over time and recently completely renovated with great care, with an eye for detail and preservation of authentic elements. Today it has become 3 ready-to-move-in living units that can also be combined. The building is surrounded by a beautiful garden of more than 4,500 m2. The property is located in a small hamlet of la Tour-sur-Orb, away from the hustle and bustle, with a beautiful view of the immediate wooded area. This environment offers many possibilities for various outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling or water sports in the Lac du Salagou. Nearby are several charming villages (Lunas, Bedarieux, ...) and larger cities such as Pézenas, Béziers and Montpellier. Because of its location in the foothills of the Massif Central and the Gorge du Tarn, and 60 km from the Mediterranean Sea (Cap d'Agde, Valras plage) there is lots of nature to enjoy.

Exterior

The garden used to be a vineyard. The vines are gone and replaced by a green oasis. The garden of about 4,000 m² is located between the house and the village and is fully fenced. It is gently sloping and has some flat spots where you can enjoy the peace and sunshine. Throughout the garden there are several fruit trees. Among others there are apple trees, pear trees, light and dark fig trees and several nut trees. Here and there, there is also a grapevine that has found its way back into the garden. At the back there is a well and a small canal (le béal de Vereilles) that runs through the garden. Enough space for the installation of a swimming pool.

Other information

The fuse box has been updated and there are solar panels with a battery system. Hot water is available in the main house with a large electric water heater in the garage and a separate water heater in the basement for the loft.
