Village house for sale, Foix, Ariège

Magnificent character house ideally located less than 10 minutes from FOIX, in the heart of a village within walking distance of all amenities (kindergarten, post office, bus, bar, restaurant, grocery store, etc.).

Set in lush greenery, the large, shaded terrace offers a splendid view of the surrounding countryside and Foix castle.

The property extends over approximately 1.6 hectares of adjoining and non-adjoining land. A stable once housed the family horse.

The charm of the past is apparent as soon as you open the pretty iron gate, where you can admire the many sculptures and statues adorning the buildings and gardens.

It's easy to see the great potential of this property, which consists of the main house, itself enlarged over time by the acquisition of the village's old bread oven and various other outbuildings, making it highly atypical.

Whether you're planning a family or tourist project, this very spacious house (approx. 249 m² living space) has all the assets.

The first floor features 2 spacious lounges: one with a wood mantle fireplace and solid oak herringbone parquet flooring, giving access to the terrace; the other with a splendid ashlar fireplace. The entrance hall also leads to a library, shower room and toilet. Another room reveals a warmly decorated master bedroom with stone fireplace. The same level also features a laundry room, a fitted kitchen opening onto a bright veranda with another access to the terrace.

The elegant staircase leads to the second floor, with 5 further bedrooms, 2 shower rooms (one with toilet), 1 bathroom and separate toilet.

The top floor is reserved for the attic, divided into three rooms, one of which is already converted.

It's the kind of house that charms you at first sight and touches your soul, as much by its beautiful architecture as by its history, which I'd be delighted to tell you about during a visit.

I'll be happy to answer any technical questions you may have, and I'm sure you'll enjoy your visit...
