Property ✧ this area offers a lot but is less accessible and a less appealing property due to fronting a road junction (albeit one-way through village), nonetheless the rear and interior would be calm; however in the same price range Ambroix is both close to here, has pleasant surroundings itself, and is a much better positioned property of similar capacity, this therefore is really just for comparison
✦ old hotel that's previously been extended, amazing area, and partly usable but needs major refresh with careful replanning and double-glazing at the front
✦ 20 bedrooms
✦ 500m2 parcel
✦ front building 115m2 *3 but 50m2 rear abuts the next and thus has no windows
✦ rear building in an L 65m2
✦ 35m2 deep courtyard with outside stairs to roof terrace
✦ first side buildings 20m2 *3, the top could be removed to extend the terrace, or indeed add a higher section having some views
✦ second side 20m2 2 floors with 70m2 roof terrace
✦ third side 50m2 below terrace 2 floors, ground being (low) garage
✦ ground floor actually crosses all the buildings in part
