A hacienda with a privileged location in the south and stunning views!
Enjoy all the qualities of a life in freedom surrounded by vineyards, nature, and distant views! Superb location for this quality property, nestled in a hilly landscape with breathtaking views. It is situated on the edge of a small picturesque hamlet where time seems to stand still.
The center of St. Chinian is just a few kilometers away, offering a wide range of shops, terraces, restaurants, and other amenities. The region provides numerous outings and excursions. From the property, you can walk or bike or even mountain bike in complete tranquility for hours.
The cities of Béziers and Montpellier (each with their own TGV station and international airport) are approximately 30 and 70 minutes away, and the Mediterranean beaches are about a 40-minute drive. The Roman city of Narbonne is located about 30 kilometers away. The villa was built, under architectural design and on a crawl space, in the years 2003/2004 in a regional manner and in a Mediterranean Hacienda style, around an inner courtyard. It features spacious rooms. This is a home where you immediately feel a vacation vibe, even though it can be perfectly lived in year-round. The property offers a gross surface area of 580 m², including a living area of over 225 m². The villa is almost entirely on one level and offers, among other things, an open-plan living room (97 m²!) with a beautiful height featuring exposed beams, a fireplace, and several doors leading to the terraces and patio, 5 bedrooms, 3 shower rooms, 1 bathroom, and an office. Additionally, this unique property offers a large garage, a summer kitchen with a fireplace, a patio, several covered terraces, a boiler room, a technical room, and poolside areas.
The house has been built sustainably. For example, the partitions have been extended into the ceilings for better sound insulation, and underfloor heating has been installed on the ground floor, which has never needed to be connected. The interior walls have additional insulation made of cellular concrete, and the numerous covered terraces are equipped with ceiling insulation to keep cool during the hottest days of the year. Of course, the property is equipped with garden lighting and an alarm system with several cameras.
The property is habitable immediately but requires some finishing work. This has been taken into account in the price.
The architect aimed to create a harmonious ensemble with a pleasant dose of light in each room and a view of the patio or surrounding nature. Today, it is evident that he has succeeded perfectly! Access to the plot (11,350 m²), which seems to blend with the surrounding nature, is via a private access road or a second entrance through the neighboring hamlet. The garden, which requires relatively little maintenance, includes a landscaped area around the house with mature Mediterranean vegetation including oleanders, ornamental grasses, olive trees, and pines. The lower part of the garden houses an olive grove in the process of being created and has been intentionally kept in a controlled wild state, offering a wide variety of aromatic herbs. In the garden, one immediately feels a sense of relaxation and the art of living, in line with the worldwide reputation of this region (Top 5 in CNBC’s ranking!).
The ensemble is completed by a salt-filtered swimming pool. This vast pool (approximately 15m x 8m!) in a freeform design is made of shotcrete with a submerged beach and finished with a prestigious Diffazur brand coating and filtration system. The overflow system enhances the magnificent view of the vineyards and the rolling Mediterranean landscape.
A uniquely designed property that can be enjoyed optimally during all four seasons in the Mediterranean climate. The rich, varied, and distant views make this property perfect and a good investment opportunity.
