Lodève

The main residence is entered via a spectacular triple-height entrance hall, where an elegant stone staircase ascends to the bedroom levels on the second and third floors. From the entrance hall, a few steps lead to the independent apartment, which comprises a cosy living room with wood-burning stove, a fully fitted kitchen opening onto a south-facing terrace, and truly panoramic views—an exceptional setting for al fresco dining. The apartment also includes a double bedroom with en-suite shower room and is currently rented as a gîte, though it would make ideal private owner’s accommodation.
On the opposite side of the entrance hall are two large cellars housing the laundry facilities and a workshop. A further doorway leads to a magnificent stone-vaulted cellar with direct access to the street below.
The first and second floors accommodate six beautifully presented en-suite bedrooms or suites, each enjoying stunning views and private bath or shower rooms. The interiors have been finished with understated yet elegant taste, enhancing the property’s exposed stone walls, wooden beams, and traditional tiled floors.
One of the first-floor suites offers direct access to the beautifully landscaped gravelled garden and pool area, planted with shrubs, flowers, and mature olive trees. The bespoke heated swimming pool is surrounded by private sun terraces, while a covered terrace provides a welcoming shaded area for dining and relaxation.
The extensive garage, topped with solar panels, can accommodate up to three vehicles. From the garden, double French doors open into the converted barn, known as La Grange. This remarkable space features high beamed ceilings, travertine tiled floors, and a pellet burner for heating. Through a striking stone archway lies a contemporary fitted kitchen with marble-topped island and a separate WC. This impressive reception space is perfectly suited for hosting events, guest dining, or private celebrations. Stone-vaulted cellars are located beneath the Grange.

This truly remarkable property offers luxurious accommodation in a peaceful and picturesque setting. Whether as an elegant private residence or a proven tourism business, it represents a rare and compelling opportunity. The château is sold with some furniture and ready for immediate operation. The sale also includes a private parking area for several vehicles and just over four hectares of non-adjacent woodland.

The surrounding area offers an exceptional quality of life, combining unspoilt natural beauty with excellent accessibility. Nestled within the Parc Naturel du Haut-Languedoc, the region is renowned for its dramatic landscapes, vineyards, lakes, and extensive walking and cycling trails. The nearby market town of Lodève provides a full range of amenities, cultural attractions, and weekly markets, while the A75 motorway offers swift connections to Montpellier, Béziers, and the Mediterranean coast.
