Real Estate For Sale: 1 bed Villa-House in Mirepoix Ariege Midi-Pyrenees France

An opportunity to own part of a fascinating piece of history with genuine wow factor. This one bedroom studio apartment is a perfect lock up and leave in one of the most handsome and unique castles of the region, set in its private mature parkland. Recently finished, the apartment features an open planned living, dining and kitchen space. There is a sliding door which cleverly hides away the sleeping area which has been fitted with a fold away double bed and a new ensuite bathroom. The apartment is characterised by fresh, modern lines and a light, natural palette. Situated on the first floor on the left of the grand sweeping Louis XIII stone staircase, the apartment is very private and enjoys South West facing view across the nearby charming old-world village and snow-capped Pyrenees in the distance. The chateau is set in 5 hectares of private gated parkland with facilities that include a large pool and tennis court. It was originally a fortress dating back to the 13th century and still retains some of that dramatic flavour with its formidable high walls and garrison-like openings. The rooftops and elegant interior spaces speak to a more bourgeois, classical later period and together the ensemble represents one of the most elegant and fairytale-like castles of the region.
