Opportunity:

Currently it is used as a spacious family home where we have been able to integrate in village life. Although it is in the village, the grounds are extremely private and barely overlooked. We are surrounded on two sides by vineyards whilst high walls or established shrubbery prevent neighbours from overlooking us on the whole.

The apartment in an adjoining building has very successfully provided rental income and when not rented, has proved useful when having extended family living or staying on long visits. It was renovated in 2005 with a new kitchen, bathroom and water heater as well as being redecorated throughout.

Both the house and apartment were rented by the week by the previous owners. In their current state they could provide a weekly income easily in excess of 3,500 / 4,000 euros in peak season. It is rare to find this style of property to rent by the week.

Due to its size and the outbuildings, we believe that this property could lend itself to becoming a centre for activity holidays with accommodation included. For example, providing painting or photography courses with a studio in the barn and accommodation in the house, or cycling holidays. With some non-structural work on the top floor, at least 5 bedrooms could be added, providing 10 in all, leaving the self contained 2 bedroom apartment for owner’s accommodation.

Being within 3km of the rue nationale, and located in a prime toutist area whilst still offering peace and quiet, it would in our opinion be viable as a B&B.

This is a great opportunity to purchase a large family home which is already renovated yet has potential for further development, if desired, and the ability to immediately generate an income.
