Located in the highly sought-after Capucins district, in the heart of Carcassonne, Valentin DESBOIS presents this exceptional property offering nearly 370 sq m of living space in a rare and privileged setting. Behind its elegant 1950s facade lies a unique residence, tastefully renovated throughout, where spaciousness, light, and charm captivate from the moment you arrive. The exceptional character of the property is immediately apparent upon entering through its magnificent solid wood Lauragais door. An entrance hall with impressive dimensions, enhanced by high ceilings and an atmosphere worthy of an art gallery, harmoniously leads to the various spaces within the property. These include a garage with an electric gate, a laundry room, several storage areas, and a 27 sq m room suitable for a studio, professional office, workshop, or wellness space. This level also provides access to two apartments, each comprising a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom with WC, offering ideal potential for a seasonal rental business, bed and breakfast, or for independently accommodating family and friends. Beyond this level, the exterior reveals a true haven of peace in the heart of the city. Situated on a wooded plot of over 1,050 sqm, the property boasts a secluded garden, offering a truly remarkable sense of tranquility. The swimming pool, elegantly integrated into the garden, along with a spacious covered terrace, allows you to fully enjoy summer days in a peaceful setting. The garden also offers direct pedestrian access to the banks of the Aude River and to a large free parking area just a few meters away, perfect for walking or cycling - a real asset for a hospitality or seasonal rental business. On the first floor, a large landing, illuminated by a skylight, leads to the main residence. The living area spans nearly 57 square meters and, thanks to large bay windows opening onto the south-facing terrace, offers breathtaking views of the garden. A magnificent Nordic wood-burning stove enhances the space, creating a warm and refined atmosphere. An elegant, separate 30-square-meter lounge with a custom-built cherrywood bookcase completes the living areas. The house also features a fully equipped kitchen and a pantry. The first-floor sleeping area comprises two magnificent master suites, each with its own shower room (one with a toilet), and a third bedroom with a separate bathroom/toilet and a separate WC, providing a comfortable and functional layout. The top floor houses two further large master suites with toilets, measuring 18 and 23 square meters respectively, offering even greater comfort and privacy. A fully convertible attic completes the property, offering numerous possibilities for additional development. Formerly operating as a bed and breakfast, the property already generated approximately EUR25,000 in annual revenue, with an estimated potential of up to EUR60,000 per year thanks to the various spaces dedicated to hospitality and rentals. In terms of comfort, the house boasts high-quality amenities including reversible air conditioning, excellent energy efficiency, and equipment perfectly suited to both a primary residence and a high-end hospitality business.

North of Carcassonne, just 30 minutes from the city, Valentin Desbois presents this family estate nestled in the heart of a protected natural environment. Set on over 5 hectares, including two small ponds and a vast forest, it offers total immersion in nature and a feeling of absolute freedom, ideal for those seeking peace, space, and authenticity, while remaining easily accessible. The spacious and welcoming main house (built in 1890) is ready to move into and offers ample room for family and friends. It comprises four bedrooms and three bathrooms, as well as a large living room, the true heart of the home. The enclosed and secure 2,000 sqm garden features a 12 x 5 meter swimming pool and a 6-person spa, all enclosed by an elegant wrought-iron fence, creating an intimate and private relaxation area. Adjoining the house is a barn of nearly 90 sq m (969 sq ft) with a ceiling height of over 6 meters (20 ft), offering remarkable potential for expansion or the creation of new living spaces, depending on your plans. The entire property could also be used as a gîte (holiday rental) or for short-term rentals. No work is required: the property is ready to move into in optimal comfort. The other parts of the estate (1673 sq m/17,000 sq ft) are completely separate and preserve the tranquility of the surroundings. The restaurant, currently operating under a commercial lease, enjoys an excellent reputation and a prestigious setting. The operators are reliable and stable, ensuring the continuity of the business. The secondary residence, not connected to the main house, is rented as a primary residence by the restaurant owners. It has four bedrooms, including a master suite, guaranteeing comfortable, consistent, and secure occupancy. These two properties alone generate an annual income of EUR54,000 excluding taxes and charges, without impacting the quality of life of the private residence. The property also features numerous garages, basements, and storage spaces, catering to both personal and professional needs. Animals are currently present on the premises (chickens, pigs, donkeys) and can be kept. Additional land is available for purchase, further enhancing the potential and unique character of this exceptional location. Property tax: EUR7,500. Price: EUR945,000 (seller's fees included).
