A step away from Le Somail and the Canal du Midi, Ginestas is one of those villages of the Aude Minervois where people come for village life within easy reach of Narbonne, Lézignan and Béziers.
Projects here take two forms: a new house on an estate plot or on an individual plot, and the renovation of village houses — two very different jobs, both of which we can take on because we are housebuilders and masons alike.
In a village like Ginestas, the local planning scheme (PLU) and the surrounding buildings shape the architecture: half-round clay tiles, render in local colours, simple volumes. Our traditional southern models — covered gallery, half-round clay tiles, single-storey — fit in naturally, and every plan is adapted to the plot: orientation, wind, access.
Before you commit to a plot in Ginestas or in the neighbouring villages (Le Somail, Saint-Marcel-sur-Aude, Mirepeisset and others), we check free of charge what can really be built: planning rules, services, access and the nature of the ground.
