Property Details
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
FULL DESCRIPTION
This is an exciting opportunity for a purchaser looking to continue and extend a bed and breakfast business in this popular area of SW France. It is just 5 minutes from the Canal du Midi, less than an hour from 3 international airports, 35 minutes from beaches and the same distance to Narbonne.
Situated in the centre of the village of Ginestas, this fine example of a Maison de Maitre just typifies all we think of as French. The stunning facade has a raised entrance accessed by a double stone staircase. Step inside into a grand entrance hall (28m²) with a magnificent staircase, original floor tiles and a marble ornamental wall fountain. Either side of the hallway are the principle reception rooms, both facing the front of the property and both of a similar size (about 25m²). The dining room (26m²) and kitchen (23m²) are at the back of the building and open onto the walled garden and swimming pool. A pantry, office and WC complete the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor there are four elegant double bedrooms, all ensuite, of which three are about 25m², the fourth 19m². These rooms are fully renovated. The top floor consists of a series of five further rooms with a total floor area of about 85m². These could be kept in their current configuration, remodelled into bedrooms and bathrooms, or even into a single self-contained apartment.
Outside is an intimate, walled garden of about 300m² with a swimming pool of 7m x 3.5m. Mature plants and a shaded seating area, make it the perfect place to cool off when guests return from sightseeing. The village is lively, with three restaurants, cafe, and local shops as well as a weekly market held every Thursday morning.
There are many beautiful towns to explore in the south of France but Narbonne is up there with the best. It is just 15 miles from the Mediterranean Sea , and is known for its stunning architecture, rich cuisine and history. It sits on the Canal de la Robine. Walk along the towpath, or stop at one of the many charming shops and restaurants and don't forget to cross the 'Merchants Bridge'. There is a centuries old covered market, open every morning, where you can buy everything from olives to oysters!
All in all, there is much to attract visitors to the region. It is not difficult to imagine that a chic bed & breakfast business would do well here.
