Carcassonne is a unique hilltop town in Languedoc, southern France, and is renowned for its fortified city walls and medieval citadel.
Carcassonne is the capital city of the Aude and is cited as one of the country’s most popular medieval tourist destinations. The city runs on tourism, however there is some light manufacturing and a business centre in Ville Basse.
Carcassonne’s medieval influence is still very present today as the citadel, known as La Cité, remains intact with numerous watchtowers and fortified double walls which date back to the Roman times.
Those more accustomed to French culture may recognise the city’s name from its eponymous board game in which the player plays with tiles to claim land and build their very own medieval landscape.
One could never tire looking upon the city of Carcassonne. It almost looks like it’s been plucked from a fairy tale. Home to some 45,000 people, there are 50 permanent residence households within the city walls, but most residents live in the newer part of the city beneath the ramparts. This area is extremely popular with European expats due to its proximity to both Toulouse and Perpignan international airports.
The weather in Carcassonne is typical of France. Winter spans from December to early March with lows of 3°C and highs of 11°C. Spring is enjoyable with highs of 21°C and summer sometimes lasts as long as five months, with highs of 29°C in July and lows of 14°C by September. It rarely rains in Carcassonne, with the average rain days reaching highs of 11 in April and lows of 4 in July – a vast improvement on London’s 14 in high-summer!
If you’re interested in Carcassonne, there’s ample opportunity to set up a gite business on your property – which many expats do. Tourists typically spend one to three days in the city, meaning you’d meet lots of new people and make a little extra money.
Properties for sale in Carcasonne often come with scenic views of the country and, if you’re lucky, the UNESCO Canal du Midi, a 240km canal that is considered one of the greatest construction works of the 1800s.
If you’d like to be in the centre of Carcassonne, properties are limited to houses and apartments, as there is no room for new builds. However, you can find apartments for sale in Carcassonne for as little as €120,000. If you’d prefer a bit more breathing room and a garden of your own, there are an ample amount of farmhouses, villas and chateau-style homes in the greater Carcassonne area.
There are houses for sale in Carcassonne for as little as €180,000 in sought-after residential areas. If it’s an unobstructed view of the countryside and acres of land your after, prices start at €300,000.
Properties in Carcassonne vary greatly in size, with some homes offering as many as 16 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. That, however, comes at a price, usually in the area of €1,500,000.
