Full Description:
With origins dating from the 13th Century this magnificent monastic property is in a countryside setting within 59 hectares of its own parkland, orchards and farmland.
A unique property comprising numerous buildings set around a series of courtyards and a cloister. The habitable part of the monastery offers 3,900m2 of space while a further 3,400m2 is set across a series of outbuildings. The most imposing element is a 500m2 Chateau built in the style of French architect Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc which is in need of some restoration. Other buildings include a new accommodation block, built in a style which is sympathetic to the rest of the property and offering 390m2 of space; two further stone-built accommodation units, three chapels, a number of libraries, kitchens, dining rooms, offices, workshops, farm buildings and an enormous wine production facility a part of which is currently leased out (flexible). Many aspects of the property have been restored by the resident monks, using traditional techniques and materials to stunning effect; of particular note is the cloister they have built using stone and wood which they sourced, cut and fashioned by hand to a professional standard.
In all there are dozens of rooms within the property of varying sizes from huge refectory and large chapel to small bureaus and monks’ cells – a full description here would run to many pages. Suffice it to say that this property offers a vast potential to the next owner and would transform particularly well into a hotel or wellbeing retreat, wedding venue, conference centre, corporate headquarters, school, multiple lodgings, vast private home or a combination of the above. If you have a similar project in mind and are considering the south of France then this property should be on your shortlist.
With no immediate neighbours the property is surrounded by flat farmland planted mainly with vines; the nearest village is just a couple of kilometres away while the popular market town of Narbonne (with TGV station) is only 10 minutes by car; the international airports of Beziers, Carcassonne and Perpignan are all within 40 minutes drive.
