camping car parkup 10mins walk open all year for vanlifers but the property itself could also allow one spot

Property ✧ not reaally a good option as partly usable buildings are a safer bet, however it is a good location with direct access, if not huge variety
✦ scope for negotiation as urgent sale (but unlikely demand) wanted and been on market for a long time
✦ warehouse building but solid as fairly recent (some roof trimming need fixing), big windows and easily refit but needs all including
✦ 380m2 of garden with south-east exposure, but potential to acquire perhaps 250m2 more to the south
✦ currently a single parcel with a cottage that will be split off having the bigger garden and selling for 120k
✦ 2 floors of 240m2, entrance could be glassed in for extra 25m2, and could be extended as orangerie for additional space though this would arguably be better moved alongside the lane adding at least 70m2
✦ no stairs; no opening windows thus most would need replacing immediately
✦ good height for mezzanines and top floor has good views
✦ 20m x 12m

the old hotel restaurant de la gare 270m2 plus attic sold for 56k in 2019 and nothing has been done with it thus may return and is much more usable, albeit on the road which can be busy in summer but not other times
