Villa for sale in Olonzac, Aude (Carcassonne, Narbonne), Occitanie

Unique historic villa, fully renovated set in 4.5ha of olive trees and countryside.

Built on 15th century Cistercian ruins, this charming substantial Mediterranean style villa has been fully renovated to feature high-end comforts including underfloor heating throughout and double glazing. Set in 4.5ha of olive and pine trees in the popular Minervois region of Southern France, this property really feels like a private retreat but is within 1 hour of international airports and the Mediterranean coast.

This is the dream property for anyone who enjoys entertaining with its spectacular stone caves including a projection screening room, games room with pool table and bar area, and wine cave.

Outside, there is a private pool, substantial terraces, and even a wood fired pizza oven. The property has five individual garages and several large workshop areas which can be used as a gym area, workshop, atelier / studio, or developed further (subject to necessary permissions). There is also an orangerie / veranda area with floor to ceiling windows with views out over the garden (currently used as a home gym and would also make a fantastic artist or yoga studio).

The property is surrounded by vineyards and is sunny year-round. The current owner even has olive oil made from the property's own olive trees!

This really is a unique property that would suit someone looking for a luxurious main home with large grounds and the workshop and studio space. Alternatively, it also has huge potential to build on for someone looking for a unique space to host events, and extend the buildings to create an exciting and lucrative revenue generating tourism business.
