Discover this exclusive medieval property, primarily remodeled in the 17th century, located in the two-thousand-year-old city of Carcassonne, at the foot of the Château Comtal! Spanning nearly 335 square meters, comprising 10 rooms, including several living rooms and bedrooms with high ceilings, this building boasts marble fireplaces, carved wood in the Neo-Gothic style, and, most notably, a hidden 200-square-meter private garden at its heart. This family home, passed down through generations, is truly unique. Step inside the former House of the Inquisition, a legendary building whose 13th-century foundations have withstood the test of time. Within its ancient stone walls, you will discover a building largely remodeled in the 17th century, yet retaining rooms and spaces where the writings of history can still be read on its walls. Mullioned windows, arrow slits, a mysterious underground gallery, and walled-up connections to the former episcopal palace all bear witness to its history. Last renovated at the beginning of the 20th century by a passionate antique dealer to restore its medieval appearance, this property offers you much more than just an address: become the guardian of a fragment of the medieval city of Carcassonne, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that attracts 2.5 million visitors annually. A unique opportunity for history enthusiasts and lovers of exceptional heritage. An art and decoration shop currently occupies the ground floor until the end of November, at which point the property will be vacant, allowing future owners to fully renovate the building, whether for a primary or secondary residence, or to establish a prestigious bed and breakfast or restaurant. The roof and covering were completely redone 20 years ago. Quotes for renovation and restoration are available upon request.
