Bellegarde, Languedoc-Roussillon 30127

The 'Mas'- A characterful estate to be reinvented at the gateway to the Camargue In the commune of Bellegarde, at the gateway to the Camargue and the edge of the Costières plateau, the landscape is shaped by garrigue scrubland and pine forests, where cicadas sing throughout the summer and the Mistral wind buffets the winter days. In this corner of the Gard region, the light is incomparable, with sunbeams piercing the foliage, drying the night's dampness, and warming the pebbles of the Rhône River that flows through the area. Calm and preserved, this authentic environment is nonetheless strategic, since it offers quick access to Nîmes (20 minutes), Arles (20 minutes), Avignon (40 minutes), but also to the Mediterranean (40 minutes from Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer). Mas Nègre, presented exclusively by the [.Vous.] Agency , is a charming old stone farmhouse. Its buildings, outbuildings, and extensive grounds extend at the foot of a hill in the commune of Bellegarde, in a peaceful yet not isolated location. The history of this property is both a family story, filled with memories, scents, and escapes into the surrounding countryside, and a story of the bond between humans and animals, as the outbuildings include a former stable and horse stall. The farmhouse now awaits the writing of a new chapter, as did the owners of a herd of bulls who settled there more than a century ago. Like the stones of the garrigue in summer, this page will be blank, since the property is to be renovated, making it an ideal project for a comprehensive renovation with heritage enhancement. The architectural charm of this property lies in its authenticity, the nobility of its stonework, and its exceptionally generous proportions. The 403 m2 of living space, complemented by 735 m2 of outbuildings and annexes, comprises a main farmhouse and a separate house, along with sheds and extensive cellars. The land is like a boundless playground, with approximately 8,000 m2 dotted with ancient trees. The possibilities offered by these areas are just as vast: 10 to 12 bedrooms can be created, complemented by 4 to 5 bathrooms and numerous reception rooms not to mention the outbuildings, which provide additional space and storage. By preserving the old framework and other authentic elements, the potential of this unique property is undeniable, whether for a main or secondary residence for a large family, a guesthouse/bed and breakfast project, a tourist vocation or even a place for seminars, wellness retreats, etc. There was a 'before' for this farmhouse: a time when several generations forged their bond over the years. There will be a spectacular 'after': that of the investor or family who will reshape this charming place and write their own memories, made of the colors, scents, and vineyards of the Gard region that change with the seasons.
