Property Description
Véronique Bessieres and Manon Chaubet, from Agence Sélection Habitat | Character Homes in the Countryside, are pleased to present: Located in the commune of Montcuq-en-Quercy-Blanc, in the heart of a hilltop hamlet offering peace, privacy, and authenticity, this unique property offers strong potential for a hospitality, wellness, or tourism-based project. This character estate is centered around a historic building dating back to 1833, offering approximately 163 sqm, extended by an additional 186 sqm, creating a harmonious ensemble of nearly 349 sqm. Currently operated as a hospitality business, the property features a distinctive layout, particularly suited to a professional project rather than a traditional family home. The main house offers warm and authentic living spaces. Accessed via a period staircase overlooking a partially vaulted cellar of 27 sqm, it opens onto an entrance hall with stone flooring (4 sqm). You will then discover a beautiful 34 sqm living room with fireplace and exposed stone walls, a 9 sqm kitchen, a second lounge of 15.5 sqm, as well as a large veranda with a recent outdoor-style kitchen, allowing guests to enjoy full independence. A hallway leads to a 15.7 sqm bedroom and a bathroom of approximately 5.5 sqm. Upstairs, a mezzanine provides additional space of 23 sqm (6 sqm under Carrez law), ideal as a relaxation area or occasional sleeping space. An attic space also allows for the creation of an additional bedroom (approximately 7.5 sqm Carrez). Outside, two balconies (7 sqm and 5 sqm) allow you to fully enjoy the peaceful surroundings and provide direct access to the extension. A major asset of the property, the extension is dedicated to hospitality and wellness activities. It notably includes a spacious 65 sqm yoga room, as well as two bedrooms (15.40 sqm and 15.31 sqm), each with water points (WC and washbasin for one, shower room for the other). On the garden level, a large activity or games room of approximately 62 sqm, with marble flooring and earth-and-lime walls, opens directly onto a large terrace of 47.75 sqm. This level also includes a corridor (10.35 sqm), a shower room, a separate WC, and a 10.45 sqm technical room used as a boiler room and laundry. Beneath the main house, an additional space offers an independent room of nearly 7 sqm with external access, ideal for an office or massage room, as well as a 9 sqm cellar used as a pantry. At garden level, an independent 14.4 sqm bedroom with an 8.8 sqm bathroom allows for easy development of a guest room activity. The estate also includes an independent guesthouse located at the bottom of the garden, currently operated as a B B. With a surface area of approximately 68 sqm, it consists of four bedrooms, each with its own shower room. This space could easily be redesigned as a fully independent dwelling. It benefits from its own functional (but non-compliant) drainage system. Outside, an in-ground swimming pool with a salt system, whose liner was replaced in 2020, blends perfectly into the natural surroundings. A 12 sqm technical room completes this area. Regarding features, the roof was redone in 2012 and is in excellent condition. The windows and joinery in both the main house and the extension are largely double-glazed, with large arched bay windows bringing in light and elegance. The property currently has four drainage systems, all non-compliant, with quotes already established for replacement by two new systems. A double garage plus a former wellness area (sauna, hammam – entirely in need of renovation) complete this property, offering multiple possibilities. Property tax amounts to €2,670 per year. This unique estate will appeal to buyers wishing to develop a seasonal rental business, wellness retreats, workshops (yoga, personal development, etc.), or a characterful hosting venue. Some adaptations would be required to convert it into a comfortable family home with multiple bedrooms.
