Set in a landscaped garden of climbing roses, agapanthuses and century old pine trees, Domaine de la Garrigue is a beautifully restored Maison de Maître where classic French character meets modern comfort. Just minutes from golden Mediterranean beaches and the lively port of Marseillan, this is a home that balances Languedoc countryside living with easy access to the coast.
Spanning approximately 450 sqm across four levels, the house enjoys garden views from most rooms, while its south facing terraces and pool capture the warmth of the sun throughout the day. Elegant reception rooms with parquet flooring open onto the terraces, including a dual aspect dining room and a living room with marble fireplace. A study allows work with a view, while a gym, playroom and games lounge with jukebox, TV and pool table ensure entertainment for all ages.
Five air-conditioned double bedrooms, each with its own en suite, provide privacy and ease for families or groups of friends. The master suite features an Emperor sized bed, dressing room and spacious bathroom, while the converted attic bedroom is ideal for a family, offering a large double bed alongside two singles.
Life flows naturally outdoors here. The bougainvillea-clad summer kitchen overlooks the terrace and pool, making shaded al-fresco dining effortless. The 3-acre garden is a true highlight, with its 12 metre saltwater swimming pool (heated during certain months), private tennis court and amazing treehouse. Meanwhile, long lunches on the terrace stretch into starlit evenings, perhaps followed by a late night swim beneath clear southern skies.
Perfectly positioned between Florensac and Marseillan, the estate places you close to the Étang de Thau, renowned oyster beds and the heritage of Noilly Prat vermouth. Weekly markets and summer festivals bring the port to life, while Pézenas, Sète and Béziers offer culture and character within easy reach. For beach days, Marseillan Plage and Cap d’Agde provide sweeping sands and vibrant seaside energy just a short drive away.
Domaine de la Garrigue offers the rare pleasure of vineyard charm with the Mediterranean close at hand, creating an exceptional setting for memorable stays in the South of France.
- Air-conditioning is featured in the bedrooms only.
