The charm and quiet of a house in the Languedoc

The house is located 20 min north of Beziers in a hamlet of 35 inhabitants on the hillside of the Faugeres.

On the ground floor are a living room (sofa, armchairs, fireplace, television, DVD player radio, library, desk) opening on a large terrace. Right next to it is a dining room with an american kitchen equipped for 6 persons (with an oven and a dishwasher)

Outside, south oriented as well but partially shaded, you will find a terrace, ideal for suntanning, and a plot of land sheltered from the wind by pine trees and very nive for having dinner. By crossing a private street (for the other 2 houses) where the car is parked, you will have access to a quite garden of about 400 sq.m with a wooden swimming-pool semi-burried 4 m in diameter.
