House / loft Limoux 1,000 m²

In the heart of Limoux, just a stone’s throw from the main square, stands a remarkable Napoleon III-style mansion, embodying the bourgeois elegance of the 19th century. Behind an unassuming gate, the property opens onto an inner courtyard leading to a majestic double-winding staircase. This leads to a vast paved terrace adorned with flowers and featuring an early 20th-century conservatory, before revealing the main façade of the residence. The reception areas occupy the main floor: a large, light-filled living room, a library, and a generously proportioned dining room, extended by a spacious kitchen with a utility room. Two master suites with dressing rooms and en-suite bathrooms complete this floor. On the upper floor, a wide corridor leads to four further bedrooms as well as a self-contained apartment comprising a living room, dining room, kitchen and utility room, offering true independence. On the garden level, accessible via two separate staircases, superb vaulted rooms open onto a walled park, offering perfect privacy, where a swimming pool, well and pond are situated. The property has retained many of its original decorative features: panelling, painted ceilings, fireplaces, stucco and frescoes, all testaments to its preserved architectural refinement. A staff house and a double garage complete the property. Situated in a region renowned for its vineyard-dotted landscapes, the Aude Valley and the iconic sites of Cathar Country, close to Carcassonne and about an hour’s drive from both Toulouse and the Mediterranean, this property combines a certain art de vivre with heritage and natural beauty.
