... where time seems to have stopped, located in the middle of a beautiful hilly, varied and natural Mediterranean landscape. In the small towns of Cessenon sur Orb and St. Chinian, accessible by bike, if desired, one finds a large choice of shops, restaurants and other amenities. The bigger sparkling towns of Béziers and Montpellier, both with their own High-Speed Train Station and international airport, are respectively a 25- to 60-minutes’ drive away. The sandy beaches of the Mediterranean Sea are only about 35 minutes away. The house dating from the 1990’s , was designed and built by an architect. It is characterized by its highly original design with patio, multiple roof slopes and terraces, as well as by a very comfortable level of brightness. Practically each room offers a lovely view over the greenery. The property offers a built area of over 310 m² including a living area of approx. 169 m² comprising a very large open-plan space with living room, dining room and kitchen, multiple terraces (partially covered), 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms including a summer bathroom, a large garage, a patio and various storage areas. The plot (6,047 m²) is easily accessible via 2 different entrance gates (via 2 different streets) which reach out to the house via a meandering graveled driveway. On-site parking is easy on one of the outside parking spaces or in the double garage. The villa is set in the middle of its own grounds, partially fenced and partially surrounded by tall trees. There are numerous olive and oleander trees, as well as hedges, mulberry trees and flowerbeds. Since this property is actually located entirely in the buildable area ( zone UC ) of the local planning rules, it should be able to provide sufficient possibilities for extensions or other property development. The freeform shaped infinity pool is close to the house and is equipped with large, comfortable steps that provide an ideal place, while sitting in the water, to relax and to enjoy the southern French summers. A uniquely designed property where the Mediterranean climate can be fully lived during the four seasons. Its privileged location, unique design and development potential in the middle of a UC zone make this property : “one of a kind”. Exclusive listing. Viewings by appointment
