Less than 15 minutes from Carcassonne and the medieval town, in the foothills of the Montagne Noire, this imposing château is set on 10 hectares, against a very green background, bordered by a stream. It features over 1100m² of floor space, with 13 comfortable and beautifully decorated bedrooms, large lounges and dining rooms, Caunes-Minervois marble fireplaces, sanded and varnished parquet floors, a sports and relaxation room with sauna, hammam and jacuzzi. A grand staircase leads to each floor of this prestigious complex. The terrace, adorned with an elegant canopy, offers unobstructed views over the park and its pond. The chapel completes this unique setting, built in 1885 for the estate's owner in 15th-century Gothic style. The chateau is still privately owned, and the roof was restored in 2016. The history of this place lives on, with its authenticity and magic still intact.
