Languedoc-Roussillon, Aude, Villepinte, France

Magnificent Dutch barge from 1905, renovated in 2019. The interior, very warm, offers 3 distinct spaces: a relaxing living space composed of the living room, bathed in light thanks to its brass portholes offering direct views of the Canal and its parquet flooring . Comfortable and cozy atmosphere with dining area, relaxation lounge area and bar area: everything invites you to rest. The living room is extended by the kitchen: professional stainless steel equipment, 4-burner stove and hotplate, large oven, work surface. To follow, you will access the 3 guest cabins: refined, each has its private bathroom and toilet, portholes in the bedrooms and bathrooms to enjoy the landscape at every moment. Then at the front of the barge, the crew cabin and at the rear, a small additional cabin. The exterior is just as charming and invites you to long moments of relaxation: the time of a lunch-dinner on the terrace (sheltered by an electric awning) admiring the landscape which passes before your eyes or the time of a nap in the sun, you will be spoiled for choice when it comes to organizing your days. Completely overhauled in 2019, this barge offers the possibility of living at the dock or sailing, at your convenience, to Narbonne...or even further. Moored on the Canal du Midi, not far from Carcassonne (Cite and Canal du Midi listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites), it can navigate on all the canals of France, the Rhine, the Rhone thanks to its length of 26.5 m and its 4.65 m width. Whether you are looking for an unusual place to live every day or for a few weeks a year (second home) or whether you dream of operating guest rooms or a cottage in an atypical place full of charm, you are in the right place . My opinion: a rare opportunity for an extraordinary life or an atypical tourist reception project, in harmony with nature.
