LOT - in the heart of Bretenoux, a lovely village : property for family and guest house, touristic project

Located in the heart of Bretenoux, this property includes two large houses, a commercial space, and a spacious garden at the back, sheltered from view. Part of the property already generates a good income and still offers great potential.

The main house, a typical Quercy-style home with its dovecote, has largely already been renovated, but there remains a floor area to complete. You could easily establish a beautiful guesthouse in this typically Lotoise residence. The house has retained many original features and blends old-world charm with modern, comfortable amenities.

The other dwelling is a house with 3 bedrooms, a living room, and an eat-in kitchen; this house is currently rented on a 1-year lease, and the commercial premises (independent and facing the street) is under a commercial lease. In other words, you already have a monthly income.

This property complex is a great opportunity to combine family life with a tourism project.
