vineyards for sale Narbonne, France

In the heart of a charming village, nestled on a wine-growing estate, this property strikes a perfect balance between an exceptional terroir and modern winery and the authentic character of an old stone house. With its 8.7 hectares of carefully tended vines, this wine estate is a haven of peace blending tradition and modernity. The estate extends over an excellent PDO schist terroir, giving the grapes an incomparable quality captured in every bottle produced in the adjoining vinification cellar. The potential of each grape variety (Carignan, Grenache noir, Syrah, Maccabeo, Grenache Blanc, Mourvèdre, Grenache Gris) finds its full expression here, making the estate one of the region's leading references. Since 2004, the estate has been producing organic wines, demonstrating its commitment to environmentally-friendly practices. Here, nature has been preserved, and the passion for the vine has been passed down from generation to generation. The oldest vines were planted in 1892, the most recent in 2010. At the heart of the estate, a tasting cellar welcomes wine lovers in a warm atmosphere. The stone walls, oak barrels and intoxicating aroma of carefully matured wines create a unique atmosphere. In addition to its wine-making activities, this wine tourism estate offers a complete ‘country life’ experience. A magnificent nineteenth-century main house of 230m², a large holiday home of 185m², a smaller property of 68m², as well as a private house of 155m², combining the elegance of the past with contemporary comfort, offer 15 bedrooms for visitors wishing to extend their stay. These welcoming holiday homes, set in 2,500m² of wooded grounds, offer privacy and total immersion in the charm of the Corbières. A swimming pool is ideal for relaxing on sunny days, and the private house has its own very peaceful and secluded corner of paradise. In short, this wine estate brilliantly combines tradition and modernity, organic farming and respect for the environment, old-world charm and contemporary comfort. An invitation to enjoy a unique sensory experience in the heart of an exceptional terroir, where wine, nature and the art of living are elegantly combined.

A freehold holiday home that makes sense. Use it for your holidays, then when you are not using it, the operator, Domaine & Demeure will rent your home for you and simply share the rental income with you. Easy and hassle free. These properties are designed to be holiday homes rather than second homes or full-time homes. They are designed for people who want a holiday home in France without the stresses that come with trying to manage a holiday home from another country. For people who are looking for a hands off experience of owning a property in France they are fantastic. The basic principle is that you use the property for your holidays and then it is rented out by Domaine & Demeure when you are not using it. All rental income is shared between the owner (55%) and D&D (45%). There are annual management charges where owners pay D&D to manage their houses and the estate. These costs are based on the actual running costs of the estate plus a 20% margin for D&D to provide this service. I like to suggest to potential buyers that their share of rental income would typically cover the costs of the management charges so that they end up at the end of the year with a zero balance and so effectively have their property fully managed for free. Typically, owners do end up making a profit at the end of the year but I prefer that this profit is not the main focus of a decision to buy.
