Rare opportunity to acquire a medieval property in the heart of Lagrasse with views of the river towards the 8th century abbey. Lagrasse is officially classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France. The village sits on the Orbieu river with the backdrop of the 779 AD Abbey of Sainte-Marie. Local shops, artisans, and restaurants are nearby, and various festivals and musical events are held in the village and its surroundings throughout the year. Located with an entrance on the Place de la Halle, the house is in a unique position to enjoy the daily life of the village, with regular markets and events nearby, while benefiting from a peaceful location at the back of the building. Offering private access to the river from the basement, it occupies a privileged position for swimming in the clear waters of the Orbieu. Thought to date back to the late 12th and early 13th centuries, the property, along with the adjacent buildings, holds significant historical importance. The original character and features of the building have been preserved, including wooden beams, tiled floors, stairs, as well as period windows and doors. The property has been under the same ownership for 40 years. Sitting on a plot of 265 sqm (plus a cellar) and spread over 3 floors, it features a 54sqm living/dining/kitchen area with a balcony extending across the river-facing facade, 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a 94sqm room on the top floor ready for development.
