Fall in love with this charming property in a lively historic village in Southern France near all necessary amenities and international transport links. Set over three levels, this substantial 4 bedroom family home is set within its own private Mediterranean style garden that it fully enclosed/ fenced with an electric gate.

The ground floor features a large and luminous open plan living and dining area; perfect for family gatherings and to relax and enjoy life in Southern France. A kitchen featuring granite countertops and backsplash with a substantial pantry also provide further living space for this historic home. There is also a ground floor WC. Two large garages provide further usable space as storage for cars, bikes or other items or even to use as a home gym, art studio, art gallery space or further living areas. On the first level, which is accessed by an internal staircase but also has a separate outside staircase, there are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all a good size and benefitting from natural light.

On the second level, a 4th bedroom completes the picture alongside further storage areas that would also be suitable for a home office, children s playroom or even yoga area. This historic home has been built with local stone, some of which is left exposed to showcase the history of the property.

Over the years, as the house has been further developed, it has benefitted from additional charming features, including marble and granite walls, floors and fireplaces as well as exposed wooden beams throughout several areas of the house. Benefitting from central heating and double glazing, the home is comfortable year round and would be a perfect family home or holiday home. The Mediterranean style garden features olive trees and mature cypress trees which all provide privacy, but is of a manageable size including an area that is currently lawn but would be suitable for a pool (subject to necessary permissions). This lovely property is walking distance to the historic centre of the medieval village, which is popular with local residents and visitors and also just a 10 minute drive to a bigger town (Limoux) which has all the necessary amenities. The village itself has, a school and a nice community feel with a mix of permanent residents and some holiday homes, making it a popular choice.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £12,992 more.
