Property ✧ the only protected element is the adjacent clock tower (actually owned by the village) and all of the interior of one of the rooms, however the village would be very protective of any external changes, nonetheless it is in presentable condition
main building circa 300m2 on 2 floors plus attic
✦ caves cicra 350m2
whilst having potentially 900m2 with the caves excluding the attic (probably unusable, but suitable for mezzanines) this sounds large but given the impossibility of moving anything around this would result in limited number of huge private rooms, badly positioned bathrooms, and probably a lot of pods, whilst most common spaces would be in the cellars (sounds bad, but actually great in hot summers)
no garden but the old garden which has a stone brdige over the lane to it, is public
✦ tower has a roof terrace but onyl really for amusement
✦ 35m2 1st floor terrace at north-west
✦ 40m2 south facing 1st floor terrace
✦ west-facing 1st floor balcony
