Property ✧ excellent value as a small satellite, though its size is small and spaces pokey however not a significant issue given as its capacity would likely be quite low, perhaps 2 ensuite, 2 basic, and 6 pods
quite likely not as large as claimed (round number!)
✦ parcel 843 105m2 probably also 844 20m2; in several parts:
✦ + rear/north has 3 floors with 2 windows plus attic (~30m2 =100m2) with access via an alley to the road to the 1st floor, as the ground floor at the back is recessed with only one window
✦ + front/south has 3 floors with 3 windows plus attic with very low windows (~30m2 =100m2), onto a car-free lane, probably a small cellar too
✦ + centre at less than 3m deep spans the two parcels with probably 3 floors rising above the others (25m2 =75m2) but might not include the 2nd parcel; has no windows except maybe top, only a door onto the alley which could have windows added above; would need lintels to interconnect with the others if not already
✦ there's possibly a hotchpotch of up to 3 stairs amongst so if interconnected their space could be reclaimed
✦ rear roof could be removed for up to 25m2 terrace, however might be better at the front, but best on the centre as the highest point, yet which still sides onto next wall (east), if rebuilt here the 2nd floor could have windows around its 3 sides
✦ the front ground has nice old full height doors as was apparently a woodworker's shop or something
✦ back has 2.5 windows across, front 3
✦ at least some walls notably the front are half-timber
probably a fair bit of work to bring up to standard
✦ there's a tiny public square almost in front that could do with some guerilla gardening, and occasionally hosts music and events
✦ the adjacent property (parcel 845) is abandoned with 40m2*3 plus a section at the rear
quite likely not as large as claimed (round number!)
