Single-storey Provençal house with swimming pool and outbuildings in the hills above Castres

In the sought-after hills above Castres, secluded and in a commanding position, this property reinterprets the style of a Provençal house to offer a unique and multifaceted living space. Nestled within over 2,000 sqm of landscaped grounds planted with cherry trees, it boasts unobstructed panoramic views.

The main house opens onto a spacious and inviting living area, bathed in natural light and featuring a striking wood-burning stove. A fully equipped kitchen extends the convivial atmosphere, complemented by a pantry/laundry room. The sleeping quarters comprise two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom.

Designed for sunny days, the house is arranged around a large pergola-covered terrace that leads to an exceptional outdoor space: a garden of Mediterranean plants borders an organically shaped swimming pool, set within a stunning wooden deck on stilts, suspended to offer breathtaking views.

A true highlight of this property is the addition of two fully equipped and independent outbuildings. The first adjoining outbuilding, measuring 40 sq m, has been boldly renovated and features a loft-style layout with a living room, kitchen, shower room, and a private terrace. A mezzanine bedroom adds a unique touch. The second outbuilding, a separate contemporary studio of 25 sq m, includes a kitchen, shower room, and its own private terrace overlooking the pool.

A large carport for two vehicles and motorcycles, ample outdoor parking, a full crawl space, and a cellar ideal for storage complete the amenities of this exceptional property.

A multifaceted property, ideal for an intergenerational family project, a hospitality business, or an independent creative space.
