Description:
A large villa commanding some of the best panoramic views in saught-after Les Hauts de Céret – an excellent perspective from which to see the whole of the Tech valley below as it sweeps towards the Mediterranean with the Corbiere mountain range behind, breath-taking!
The house itself has been designed to maximise indoor/outdoor life with numerous shaded terraces and seating areas. The property sits in the middle of its own land, surrounded by oak and olive trees; of split-level design it offers a large lounge with feature fireplace and dining area beyond. Off the lounge is a glassed-in verandah in which the current owners have installed a bar area, further out is a large balcony overlooking the pool below and offering amazing views; around the corner to the south side of the house is a large outside seating area with awnings above to give shade, this terrace continues around the house to a summer kitchen area with large built-in BBQ and room for a dozen people to eat in comfort. There is a door back into the house here leading directly into the kitchen with separate pantry and laundry area behind. The kitchen is fully fitted with wooden units, gas hob and electric oven.
Running behind the kitchen along the spine of the house is a wide corridor off which there are four bedrooms, each with double french doors giving on to a private outside seating area. The bedrooms all have fitted wardrobes, the master has a large ensuite bathroom while the three others share two bathrooms between them.
By the two end-most guest bedrooms a wooden staircase descends from the floor above which, although originally designed as attic space, now offers a good-sized office and the other half which remains attic.
Outside there is a concrete and tiled pool with wide sunbathing area around, this area receives sunshine all day and boasts the most wonderful views over the valley below. The pool machinery is located directly beneath the pool area.
The house is approached by passing though double iron gates then along a sweeping driveway which ends at a turning area in front of the integral garage and workshop, off the side of the garage is a good-sized wine cellar with room for hundreds of bottles.
Les Hauts de Céret is 5 minutes drive above the famous town of Céret with its numerous restuarants, shops, bars and modern art museum. Céret has good schools and an excellent weekly market.
This house is one of the best in saught-after Les Hauts de Céret; its views, design and homely atmosphere combine to ensure it will not languish long on the market.
