A tour of the property

Entering through the impressive foyer (32 m2), you immediately feel the grandeur of the house. To the left, a 40 m2 sitting room overlooking the street, currently the owners’ private lounge. To the right, a 6 m2 office and a 3 m2 hall with access to two guest WCs and the 4 m2 laundry room, leading into the 26 m2 kitchen, which also connects to the 47 m2 dining room at the back.

A second entrance opens into an 18 m2 corridor, mainly used for storage, with stairs down to the 48 m2 cellar and a door through to the kitchen. Guests also enjoy their own 36 m2 family room overlooking the garden, with access to both the dining room and the owners’ lounge.

From the dining room, French doors open to the 60 m2 terrace, where guests can enjoy breakfast outdoors. The garden features a green lawn and a palm tree, with at its centrepiece the 7 x 14 m swimming pool (1.75 m deep), surrounded by sunbeds and fully fenced for safety. Beyond the pool, a small outbuilding contains a WC, shower and storage space, while to the right is a pétanque court.

Up the elegant wooden staircase, the first and second floors are dedicated to guest accommodation, with 10 bedrooms and 10 private bathrooms, each room spacious and bright – ideal for chambres d’hôtes.

Across the street, a 62 m2 garage provides practical storage or parking.

This property clearly shows its past as a luxury hotel, while today offering a turnkey layout for a thriving B&B.
