Let this restored vigneronne house wrap around you and take care of you, just as it has done for the same family for generations. A stunning renovation has preserved original details, such as colourful cement tile floors and marble fireplaces, while adding every modern comfort, including ducted air conditioning. As in traditional winegrowers' houses, a huge garage takes up the ground floor, still holding the old wine tanks (cuves) and grape press. The garden surrounds the house and features a lovely swimming pool with terrace. The first floor holds the main living space, including four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The second floor opens onto a blank canvas beneath original exposed beams, its windows framing a magnificent view over the surrounding Mediterranean landscape, ready to be shaped by your own imagination. Behind the house stands an outbuilding to renovate to taste, whether as a holiday home or another business venture. Discover this rare base for full-time living, or a characterful second home in the heart of the Herault.

Abeilhan is a lively village with everyday amenities (pharmacy, press shop, restaurants, patisserie, post office), halfway between Beziers and Pezenas. The beach and airport are around 30 minutes by car.

* Property Layout
Ground floor: A large garage housing the original wine cuves and a pressoir sits alongside a summer kitchen ready for renovation. Behind the house, you will find an additional annexe with further renovation potential.

First floor: The main entrance opens onto a sitting room with an original marble fireplace, a dining area, and a fully equipped open kitchen. A corridor leads to three bedrooms, served by a bathroom (washbasin, shower, WC) and an ensuite bedroom with a dressing room and a bathroom (washbasin, shower, WC), plus a separate WC. The doors from the living room open onto a terrace overlooking the garden and the pool.

Second floor: Going upstairs reveals a spacious room under the original timber roof structure, to be finished. Two windows bring in light and open views over the surrounding countryside, and the space is ready to serve as a fifth bedroom or a private studio. A separate room has been dedicated as a technical room for the ducted air conditioning.

Exterior: A gate opens onto a garden surrounding the house, complete with a private pool and a terrace.

* Location
Abeilhan is a small yet charming village with some amenities such as a pharmacy, a post office, a press shop, some restaurants, and a patisserie. The village is only a 5-minute drive from neighbouring Servian. Here, you will find all amenities and a Super U supermarket. It sits at the beginning of picturesque rolling countryside that leads up to the Montagnes Noires further north. Like many villages in the region, it is entirely encircled by vineyards, many of which produce award-winning wines. The Mediterranean beaches are at a 30 minutes drive.

Located 15 minutes from Pezenas, which is a larger town and is home and is hugely popular with holidaymakers and 2nd home owners. It is a local centre for antiques and arts and crafts and hosts some of the region's finest restaurants. Pezenas' weekly Saturday morning market is also a huge draw.
