In late 2014 after selling our Spanish properties we decided to relocate to the South-West of France. We found a very special town called Mazamet, on the edge of the Haut Languedoc Natural Park. The town is located halfway between Toulouse and Béziers. Only two and half hours to the Spanish border town of La Jonquera. A four hour drive to Biarritz, and less than that to Marseille or Barcelona.

On the historic Boulevard de Lattre de Tassigny of Mazamet we purchased the Neoclassical Maison de Maitre designed by Léon Daures, the creator of the Arc de Triomphe of Albi, which we plan to restore to its former glory. We also founded the SCI 42 Rue de Strasbourg which owns a portfolio of rental properties in the picturesque town centre of our town. Our properties range from three bedroom homes with private gardens to fully furnished student apartments, all in the Champ de la Ville area. A three minute walk to restaurants, shops and services. The everyday management of the properties is done by Lopez Immobilier, 48 Rue Edouard Barbey as we believe in supporting local businesses.
