Property Description

Summary
After 16 years enjoying the wonderful life this property has given us it’s reluctantly time with extra opportunities to offer our home & life to new owners .
We are offering a rare opportunity to purchase 3 adjacent plots.together or separately

Extra surrounding land is extendable by upto another 7.5 hectares by negotiation

(Also a possibility 3 rd adjacent lake which is just 70 metres from plot 2 by further vender negotiation.)

2 Bed barn conversion with off grid electric .triple glazing ,solar panels ,free power for life !

1 historic carte de Cassini carp fishing lake 3000sqm .(3/4 acre) registered as a fishing business with a little investment has the potential for a two year capital return rate

1 x 4150 sqm (1 acre) carp lake with converted vintage bus accommodation & mains water
All set in French beautiful countryside.

*Please note this lake has work needed to repair dam wall small leak*

Plot 3/ This character stone barn conversion currently has 2 bedrooms but there is ample room to expand to 3.
This unique property runs totally off solar power. The house has mains water. The annual running costs are approximately €2000 including water, gas & taxes.
The DPE rating is C which is very good for a property of this type.
If solar electric is not for you then getting it onto the mains grid is easy. The electricity supply pole is situated by the front gate so connection is straight forward.

The price reflects a non standard unusual property
it runs off deep discharge batteries & solar power see above for other options.

notaire fees are paid by the buyer in France .


The property would suit someone with a passion for fishing who would like a further income stream by also purchasing plot 2/&3
Or micro farm with add on 7.5 hectares of meadows
Equestrian hobbies or business would be ideal
I could also see it being bought by a handyman / developer /builder to do further improvements & upgrades which would allow it to be offered with the lake as a high weekly income.

The property and the lakes can be bought together by discussion making an extensive land totalling area 49766 sqm or just under 5 hectares in total.
A further 7.5 hectares of adjacent meadow land can be purchased as an extra within the sale
Making the possibility of a 12.5 hectare site !
And just in case that wasn’t enough a further lake 70 metres away from plot 2 can be discussed for sale too

Exterior
The old stone barn
On an ancient site pre 300 year is our old barn.
Set back from a country lane in its own large plot 1.5 hectares .
It has been set up as a green ecological home which had its advantages when covid struck .
It boasts
Triple glazed windows,heavily insulated, floor roof,
carbon neutral wood burner with rads ,( enough natural waste wood and pruning on site could supply you for life we have kept warm for 15 years and our wood pile keeps getting bigger !
Solar water heater , mains water is connected .
There is a well in the garden if you wanted to disconnect mains water & is useful for filling the above ground pool for free!
Koi pond next to the house.
The barn was created with an ecological ethos so offers
Solar tubes that create an abundance of hot water in summer via a solar twin coil tank & winter the wood burner takes over via back boiler with wood .
Electric is supplied by a series of solar panels which is then stored in long life batteries and called upon when needed .
Summertime is amazing we can run everything we need but winter some adjustments to lifestyle take place .You have an option of external supply from edf .The pylon is at the end of the garden ready to connect to a registered installation if that change was required .
Our running costs of the property are surprising low approx €2000 each year total !!!
Whether you want a small holding with horses,chickens,sheep, etc or bee hives , run an eco b&b the opportunities are many & varied.
We’ve loved our time here but it’s now time to hand over the baton .
