Main Description
A detached single-storey house on a select new lotissement built in 2007 in the foothills of the Pyrénées. Situated in
an historic and distinctive Catalan village. All the usual facilities are within a five minute walk. The village is a few
kilometres from the celebrated town of Céret. Within a five minute walk are the beautifully landscaped lakes that
form the village leisure facilities, with swimming, boating, adventure trails and a fine fishing lake that is home to the
very active angling club.
Built and equipped to a high standard and in immaculate condition. Access to the house is controlled by motorised
gates and CCTV.
The plot has an area of 1350m2 with a developed garden. It is connected to an irrigation canal. An automatic
sprinkler and drip-feed system is installed over the entire plot. Irrigation subs are ?75 a year but water is otherwise
free. The plot is bordered on two sides by a bassin d'orage and a small stream, lined with oak trees giving on to
vineyards and grazing pasture. Situated in a calm and tranquil setting it has a wonderful view of the mountains from
the terrace. The latter has a comfortable area of 25m2 and benefits from a small 'microclimate' that permits one to
lunch outside in the sun on most days in January. A large, motorised awning is fitted to provide cool shade. The
terrace extends round the side of the house providing an extra 23m2 of space. The current owner is allergic to
swimming pools, so there is no pool. However, there is plenty of space to install one; either adjacent to the terrace or
in the garden area.
There are four bedrooms; an en suite shower-room to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom. Bedroom four is
currently used as a study. The living area is open plan and is attractively light and airy. It has a well equipped, high
quality kitchen. There is a double garage with two automatic doors that would allow use of one as a DIY workshop if
desired.
The house benefits from a low-energy RIBO reversible central air conditioning system with individual controls for
each of the bedrooms. The system is powerful, virtually noiseless and extremely efficient, rendering the house
beautifully cool in the summer months and warm in the winter. Because of its design and air filter system, the house
remains relatively dust-free and very easy to maintain.
