Notes/Property ✧ this kind of price in this region is rare, in this case likely mainly due to size and previous use as offices (requiring significant replanning to convert to apartments) however some parts are immediately usable; mostly good condition thus only interior refitting and the weird courtyard annexes
town centre and entire length of one end of a fairly quiet square soon to acquire a small garden directly in front of the building; the square currently has a restaurant and a cafe at the opposite end
✦ (garden is rated better due to variety both in the property and outside)
3 parcels, 133 east, ??south-east, 563 south
✦ circa 100m2 usable per floor * 4
✦ 15m2 roof terrace/orangerie however no views, could probably be enlarged to 30m2
✦ 35m2 courtyard and some balconies over it
✦ good large doors onto square for coworking
