Set in the highly desirable Quartier Pasteur, this elegant period home offers the rare combination of peace and privacy while being just a short stroll from the vibrant heart of Carcassonne, with its cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions. Sympathetically renovated, the property successfully blends original architectural charm with the comfort and convenience of modern living.
The welcoming entrance hall, complete with vestibule, provides access to the principal reception rooms and opens through to the rear garden. To the right, the ground floor living space has been thoughtfully opened up to create a spacious and inviting open-plan living, dining and kitchen area of approximately 42m2. Filled with natural light from windows to both front and rear, this stylish room retains beautiful original wooden and tiled flooring and is centred around an impressive antique ceramic stove, creating warmth and character. The kitchen, partially separated by a low wall, is well equipped with a high-quality range cooker and traditional double enamel sink, with pleasant views over the garden.
To the left of the hallway is a second reception room of 15m2, ideal as a sitting room, office or professional consultation space for those wishing to work from home. Beyond this lies the attractive curved wooden staircase leading to the upper floors, along with a convenient ground-floor WC.
At the rear of the house, a further 15m2 study offers excellent flexibility and could easily serve as a ground-floor bedroom. Adjacent to this room is a walk-in cupboard with existing plumbing, offering excellent potential to create a shower room.
The first floor features a generous landing leading to a luxurious family bathroom of 11m2, complete with freestanding bath, separate shower, double basins and WC. Five bedrooms provide spacious family accommodation, measuring approximately 18m2,15m2,13.5m2,12m2 and 9m2.
Above, the attic offers further exciting potential. Already divided into two rooms plus an additional smaller area with plumbing connections, this 34.5m2 space could be incorporated into the main living accommodation with minimal work, creating additional bedrooms, a studio or hobby space.
The house has benefited from significant recent upgrades, including complete rewiring and replumbing eight years ago. The roof has also been thoroughly inspected and repaired where necessary, providing reassurance for future owners. A traditional “damp cellar, ” characteristic of historic homes in the region, not only protects the property from moisture but also provides ideal natural conditions for wine storage.
Outside, the charming enclosed garden is a true haven, shaded by a mature lime tree and designed for relaxed outdoor living. A dining terrace and summer kitchen with barbecue make it perfect for entertaining, while an additional enclosed storage area adds practicality. There is also ample space to install an above-ground swimming pool if desired.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial character home in one of Carcassonne’s most sought-after residential districts. Quiet, secure and exceptionally well located, the property is just moments from the city centre and the iconic unesco-listed Cité de Carcassonne. Carcassonne Airport is only 3.5 km away, with convenient public transport nearby, making this an ideal permanent residence, family home or elegant holiday property.
