Luxury villa with courtyard pool in deep countryside
Tucked away in an 18th century rural domaine, this beautiful detached villa is located in rolling farmland between the Pyrenees and the Montagne Noire, 45 minutes from the Mediterranean, close to Carcassonne and just five minutes from the Canal du Midi. The villa, converted and equipped as a permanent home, set in its own garden of half an acre, with BBQ, chairs, tables, roses, flowerbeds, fruit trees, grapevines and shady pines, with views across fields of sunflowers and barley towards the heat-hazed Montagne Noir. Le Pigeonnier has been exquisitely restored around the original pigeon-tower to incorporate stonework buildings enclosing a sunlit courtyard and pool, with dining facilities, sun loungers and tubs of bougainvillea, plumbago and pelargonium. The elegant sejour with its massive fireplace, the dining room, and comfortable bedrooms, all with beamed ceilings, are furnished with antiques and lovely soft furnishings.The fully fitted kitchen, is matched by modern bathrooms.
