Spectacular restored historical chateau. Peacefully positioned in 18 hectares of park and farm land between Carcassonne and Toulouse. Independent 4-bedroom Cottage and swimming pool.
Tastefully restored by the present owner this property is the perfect balance of ancient and modern.
Presently run as a successful wedding venue but equally suitable as a private home with recently renovated 4-bedroom guardians cottage in the grounds and scope for further development if required.
Steeped in history La Commanderie was built in the 13th century by Guillaume de Plaigne, a Cathar Lord. In the 16th century, Barthelemy de Plaigne extended the Chateau by creating the Salle des Chevaliers. His daughter Anne de Plaigne then sold it to François-Paul de Béon-Massès-Cazaux, head of the order of St John in Toulouse, who, in 1685, established this domain as a Commanderie of the Knights of Malta. It remained in their ownership until the French Revolution.
In the 19th century, the chateau belonged to Mr de Nicol, who modernised the building, and it stayed in this family for a century, up until his last descendant Violette de Ferluc.
La Commanderie was bought in 1973 by the present family who have carried out extensive restoration works, enhancing the historical features of the property.
A sweeping double stairway leads up to the front doors and into a welcoming hallway.
Continue through to the summer drawing room which has large double doors leading out onto the rear terraces and landscaped gardens.

Unique opportunity to acquire a beautiful and tastefully renovated 4 storey, Italianate style Chateau with large gite near Carcassone, set in almost 25 acres of glorious land with mature gardens, expansive pool and a lake. Within easy reach of Toulouse and Carcassonne and international airports, this is an exciting opportunity to further develop the income potential of this elegant country estate with outbuildings and a chapel, it's the perfect setting for a wedding and events business or a residence. The attractive main house comprises of the old servants' kitchen and a boiler room. (Solar panels are being installed to heat the water in the summer months). A vaulted wine cellar, and a gym equipped with sauna, Jacuzzi and hammam spa, a housekeeper's bedroom and bathroom and access to full height cellars and workshop with exterior access, all on the lower ground floor. On the main floor is a lovely bright reception hall, library, kitchen, living room, study and dining room leading to a staircase with original painted plaster. To the first floor (on the half landing is a WC and access to the back staircase leading to the annex with 2 bedrooms and the gite). On the first floor is a wide "library" corridor with 4 large en-suite double bedrooms and an adjoining smaller 5th bedroom with access onto a corridor with WC. A further 196m2 of habitable space in the process of renovation with restored exposed beams, 2 bedrooms with a functional bathroom, a study, and a living room area, plus 2 further bedrooms and shower rooms to finish ( plumbing etc. all in place), are on the second floor. Next to the main house and accessible from the back staircase or outside and through the gravelled courtyard, there is the gite/loft of 200m2 spread over 2 floors, with 4 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an en-suite shower room. It sleeps 13 with the potential for 16 by opening the 2 annex en-suite bedrooms (one with kitchenette and stairs to a ground floor terrace). There is a spacious living room with a fireplace, a large dining kitchen, and TV area. All are serviced by fuel central heating system, a wood fire and a 200L water heater). The gite currently rents for EUR 3,900 per week. There is a further building, currently under renovation with 3 floors and could work beautifully as a function room and car park or something else (subject to necessary permissions). To the right of the main property is the chapel built in 1885, in a 15th century gothic style. This is in need of renovation at the moment but would provide a wonderful backdrop for weddings and events. Behind this the owners have plans for a large marquee for events which would be close to the old servants' kitchen, for the catering services to use. In front of the property is a 14m x 7m swimming pool (chlorine) with a concertina glass cover and a newly tiled sun terrace, plus a small lake with weeping willow. In the immediate grounds are plane trees, cedar and an enormous magnolia tree. The owners have plans to create a rose garden in front of the steps leading to the main entrance. To the left of the property, there are several stone-built farm buildings: workers' cottages, garages, storerooms and workshops. 4/5 cottages are currently rented long-term and bring a healthy income and are available to purchase if so desired. There is also a 2 storey stables to renovate, and a barn which currently is storing farm equipment. Road safety permitting, the old gates to the property could be reinstated with a long gravel drive leading to the main house. This would give the gite and dependencies separate access.
