House in Neffiès, Hérault

Located in the sought-after winegrowers’ village of Néffies, this exceptional property combines character, space and proven income potential, offering a rare lifestyle opportunity on the edge of the village, just a short walk from the historic centre.

Set within beautifully maintained, fully enclosed mature gardens, the property immediately conveys a sense of privacy and tranquillity. The grounds are thoughtfully arranged, with generous garden areas leading to a heated swimming pool (3.5 x 8m), surrounded by terraces designed for outdoor living and entertaining. A separate access point with dual gates provides secure off-street parking, while also allowing independent access to the gîte.

The main house is both elegant and welcoming. A spacious covered terrace overlooks the gardens, creating a natural extension of the living space. Inside, a bright open-plan layout features a comfortable lounge with an efficient Jøtul log burner, flowing seamlessly into a fully fitted kitchen with central island and pantry — ideal for both everyday living and hosting. This level also includes a separate WC, ample storage and direct access to a large garage with space for up to two vehicles.

A striking staircase leads to the first floor, where the property’s character continues. Five well-proportioned bedrooms offer flexibility for family living or guest accommodation, including two suites with their own bathrooms and dressing areas. One bedroom benefits from access to a dedicated laundry space, while an additional shower room with WC serves the remaining rooms. This floor opens onto a front terrace with far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside, with steps leading back down to the garden.

The adjoining gîte, officially rated 5* Meublé de Tourisme, is a key feature of the property and provides a turnkey income stream. Beautifully presented, it offers a private entrance and terrace, leading into a charming vaulted living space with feature fireplace. A separate fully equipped kitchen and shower room are located on the ground floor, while upstairs two bedrooms comfortably accommodate up to four guests. A summer kitchen and additional covered terrace further enhance the guest experience. The gîte benefits from strong occupancy rates and generates approximately €40,000 per year, with clear potential for further development, particularly outside the peak season. The property is sold fully furnished, allowing immediate continuation of the business.

Both the main house and gîte have been fully refurbished to a high standard, offering modern comfort while retaining their original charm. Features include reversible air conditioning, central heating, double glazing, insulation and a water softening system, ensuring year-round comfort and efficiency.

Néffies is one of the region’s most desirable villages, known for its vibrant yet authentic atmosphere. Within walking distance are a bakery, post office, two well-regarded restaurants, a wine and tapas bar, and regular community events. The nearby town of Roujan (just 5 minutes away) provides additional amenities including a supermarket, garden centre and medical services. The property is ideally located within easy reach of Pézenas (20 minutes), the Mediterranean coastline, and the airports of Montpellier and Béziers.

Combining generous living space, refined outdoor environments and a successful, established gîte business, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home with both lifestyle and investment appeal in the South of France.
