After a small laundry room you come to a large vestibule equipped as a comfortable library. Beyond the library is a large living room that leads directly onto the large rooftop terrace. It is magic to sit there in the evening, an oasis of tranquility above the streets. The terrace looks over the canal tile roof tops of the bastide and the spires of the Cathedrale Saint-Michel, yet is private.

At the east end of the apartment are the three bedrooms and the two bathrooms. There is a bath, a power shower and great wardrobe space. All the windows are double glazed. There is air conditioning and electrically controlled blinds and shutters. The whole apartment is very light and well equipped. It also looks onto the terrace.

In the winter the people of Carcassonne regularly take to the nearby slopes and historical, archaeological and wine destinations are within easy reach. Toulouse and Barcelona are also popular destinations. Watersports, bird watching, hiking and Orchids are all nearby.

Parking

There is parking both metered and free, within the bastide itself. The apartment is two short blocks away from the boulevard where there is a lot of parking available. It costs 2.50 Euros per day with a pay and display system (free between six in the evening and 9am and weekends).

The boulevard that surrounds the Bastide is one-way (sens unique) - anticlockwise. The part of the Boulevard most convenient for the penthouse is on the Boulevard Barbès, just on the left after Place General de Gaul and just before the Dôme, where the Boulevard turns to the left and becomes Boulevard Camille Pelleton. You will have a very good idea of scale and layout by entering the apartment address (37 rue Aimé Ramond, 11000, Carcassonne) on www.mappy.com
