Villa du Canigou, a Characterful Residence in the Heart of Céret

Property Description

Nestled at the foot of the Albères, in the dynamic town of Céret, Villa du Canigou reveals itself as an exceptional residence, steeped in history and character. A true testament to the talent of Viggo Dorph Petersen—the renowned architect behind the Château de Valmy, Château d’Aubiry, and Villa Jeanne d’Arc—this maison de maître, restored in the early 20th century, has retained all its period charm.
From the moment you step inside, the elegance of the home captivates. Multiple rooms unfold beneath high ceilings adorned with intricate moldings, while original fireplaces, cement tiles, and terracotta floors tell the story of a bygone era. With over 300 m² of living space, the house offers a seamless and harmonious layout, perfect for a large family or those who dream of spacious living.
Outside, a 1,364 m² tree-lined garden ensures privacy and offers endless possibilities—imagine a Mediterranean garden, a relaxation area, or a swimming pool. The south-facing balcony provides breathtaking views over the surrounding hills, Château d’Aubiry, and Pic Néoulous, with a glimpse of the majestic Canigou in the distance.
On the ground floor, an independent apartment with a private entrance and one bedroom completes this remarkable residence, offering a valuable opportunity to host family and friends or to consider a rental project. A spacious garage further enhances this prestigious property.
