Property with pool Gignac (46)
LOCATION Set in the heart of the Montpellier hinterland, this property enjoys an elevated position offering panoramic views. It is situated in a Mediterranean setting that has long been preserved through organic farming, nestled amongst vineyards, garrigue and rolling countryside. Its secluded location ensures absolute tranquillity, with completely private access. Situated near Gignac and Clermont l’Hérault, it combines the tranquillity of a country estate with good transport links. Montpellier and its airport are approximately 35–40 minutes away. The main roads are 5 minutes away and easily accessible. DESCRIPTION The property is set on a single plot of approximately 7.3 ha. It is a characterful estate centred around a fully restored 435 m² stone farmhouse (Mas), its outbuildings, a large swimming pool area and some land planted with vines. A fitted wine cellar allows the estate’s grapes to be vinified on site. The renovation of this very old farmhouse combines the character of the original architecture with resolutely contemporary fittings. The spacious rooms, stone vaults, materials and large windows lend the house an atmosphere that is at once elegant, light-filled and warm. An added bonus: there is an enclosed area set aside for a small equestrian facility with stables The property has been designed both for comfortable private living and for entertaining family and guests, with beautiful indoor and outdoor living spaces. BUILDINGS The MAIN HOUSE has a floor area of approximately 390 m²; it offers spacious rooms and comprises, in particular, four bedrooms, each with its own shower room or bathroom and toilet, and two large walk-in wardrobes, one of which is an air-conditioned loft-style space. The reception rooms play a prominent role in the house. Several stone-vaulted areas bear witness to the building’s ancient origins, whilst contemporary alterations have created bright and comfortable spaces. The kitchen was completely refurbished in 2021. Heating is provided by an air-to-water heat pump. The roof, which was re-tiled in 2008–2009, was insulated at the same time. A separate 45 m² FLAT, comprising two bedrooms and a shower room, completes the living area, providing accommodation for family and friends or for a caretaker. THE POOL AREA Outside, a spectacular 10 × 16-metre saltwater swimming pool is one of the property’s standout features. It is complemented by a fully equipped, top-of-the-range outdoor kitchen, a pool house and a spacious, furnished area ideal for entertaining. Together, they form a genuine outdoor reception area opening out onto the landscape. The farmhouse and pool area are enclosed, ensuring good security to protect children and pets. OUTBUILDINGS: A separate building of approximately 110 m² comprises a farm shed, storage areas and an air-conditioned office, as well as an underground cellar where the winemaking facilities have been fitted out. LAND The property comprises approximately 7.5 hectares, of which 3.4 ha are planted with IGP and AOP vines. The Mas is situated in the heart of the Languedoc garrigue. The entire estate has been fully organic for 20 years The estate is supplied with water by a productive borehole, and there is a spring that feeds a charming pond NOTE: Cellar and viticultural equipment are not included in this offer An enclosed area with a wooden fence for horses occupies part of the grounds; there are two stalls, each with a door and its own drinking trough, and a locked shed to store hay, straw and equestrian equipment OUR OPINION A unique property, which appeals above all through the combination of its historic architecture, the quality of its renovation and its spacious reception areas. The fact that it is grown using organic farming methods provides a healthy environment, making it a peaceful place for families, children and pets to live. This property is therefore equally suited to a project for a private residence with character or to a venture combining a lifestyle, hospitality and a wine-growing business to be developed, in a sought-after area of the Montpellier hinterland.
