Get ready to tour this French mansion for sale in the wine-producing Aude region of France! This French mansion dates back to the early 1800s and has undergone a loving restoration with an eye for luxury while preserving the historical details of the chateau. Our tour begins with the 11,700 square foot main house, set over three floors, each with majestically high ceilings and impressive windows. There are a total of 8 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms in the chateau, as well as 5 oversized entertaining rooms (gallery, library, salon, formal dining room and a lovely terrace with a bar) on the main floor. This property has been renovated to include a commercial kitchen that can cater a large event or can simply be a chef's dream.

The total property is 12.3 acres of manicured grounds, including an ornamental lake and old-growth trees that are as old as the property itself. Importantly, the property has water rights to the Canal du Midi, which allows for these lush plantings and water features. The grounds also house two bars and an outside entertaining area which can be conveniently opened up and closed when not being used. The gardens are landscaped with attractive walkways, unusual plantings and stunning sculptures that make an afternoon stroll a delight.

The property also boasts a fully renovated Mediterranean-style 3 bedroom 2 bath house with a lounge, kitchen, private garden, terrace, two bathrooms and its own separate entrance. There is also up to 16,000 SF of additional development potential with the existing stables and other stone agricultural outbuildings.

Located only 25 miles from the Mediterranean, this chateau is near Carcassonne and is in close proximity to 5 international airports. Enjoys a Mediterranean climate while still being only 2 hours away from the ski slopes in the Pyrenees!
