A Large, Luxurious Home, Its Guest House And Its Annexe Buildings Set In Pleasant Parklands In

A large, luxurious home, its guest house and its annexe buildings set in pleasant parklands in Narbonne, first daughter of Rome. Seen from above, the buildings are laid out in an L-shape. They include the main house, spanning approx. 280 m² with 8 bedrooms, an adjoining outbuilding, set out as an 80 m² guest house with 3 bedrooms, a garage and a shed.

This property, just a stone’s throw from the centre of Narbonne, is kept out of sight of onlookers by approx. 4,630 m² of wooded parklands. These grounds shelter a large swimming pool, with a pool-house, and a vegetable garden.

The main building spans up to four levels in the right-hand wing, giving it the appearance of a tower with a slate roof. The other buildings have tile roofs. In front of the facade, an age-old magnolia and cypress trees stand tall in Mediterranean-style parklands, enhanced with large, natural, versatile areas, bordered by immaculately trimmed hedges. An ornamental pool with aquatic plants, colonnades and Art Deco style ornaments embellish the garden. Tall entrance gates and a driveway leading from the main road are not currently used, the owners preferring to access the house via a side entrance in the parklands.

Originally the holiday home of a wealthy merchant, this residence is now in the town, despite initially having been secluded, surrounded by vines and fields. Its impressive facade made it possible to conceal the wine storehouses at the back.
