Béziers, Languedoc-Roussillon, Address available on request

This property benefits from a unique situation and is located at the edge of an often visited village in the countryside of Béziers, Languedoc Roussillon, Occitanie, South of France. An area benefiting from a micro climate where locals are very much connected with nature. There is i.e. A production of essential oil, a lot of organic growing farming, many sports activities like 80km of maintained network for biking and hiking, climbing, several caves, mountains, forest, collecting mushrooms, chestnuts and more. For those more into culture and history, there are artists and galleries, a museum and many indoor activities. Only about an hour from the Mediterranean sea with its beautiful sandy beaches, all services are provided in the village or nearby. 

The unique Maison de Maître is just ideal for a business based on different income streams. Renting out different apartments, B& B with en-suite bedrooms, a Spa and proposing maybe even 'table d'hôtes' in an attractive location would make a good income for a family looking for a change of life.

2nd floor
Apartment ( 4) with 1 or 2 bedrooms: A bedroom is ready and very pretty, nice lounge dining kitchen, partition needs to be taken down and kitchen fitted, the shower room needs upgrading. A second bedroom could be redecorated and added to it.
Another about 140m2 could be converted into more apartments, a loft etc.
PS: none of those fireplaces in the Maison de Maître have been used, they are just decoration. The Stone fireplace in the Main-Apartment is used and works perfectly well and gives such a nice ambiance during the colder season.

Grounds
The Plot is 673m2 large with a lovely sunny terrace 42m2 on the Southern Entrance, terrace 20m2 in the Main-Apartment, about 150m2 of garden. As the water level of the river is usually low, the to be used garden area is far larger.

General condition
The Main-Apartment has been to a very high standard renovated and is in perfect condition. There is an underfloor heating powered by an exchange pump air/water which can be used for cooling in the summer it is as well connected to the fuel central heating for the Maison de Maître. The joinery is in wood with double glazing.
The Maison de Maître is very much in its original condition but very well kept and decorated. There is fuel heating throughout. We find still the old and charming single glazed wooden windows and wooden shutters. The electricity needs partly updating. Most of the shower rooms have been updated and have been kept in an original style with washbasins hunted with a lot of effort in antic shops. Some could benefit of an upgrade as future investment, depending on the taste.

Comments
This property is to my perception ideal for a flourishing letting business with a stunning owner apartment and 3 other apartments to rent out and on top 5 B& B. A table d’hôtes offer would certainly be a great success too. The Spa could benefit not only the in-house guests but be opened for the public, local inhabitants and tourists hosted in other accommodations nearby. A huge potential and the property would certainly make a very good living for a couple looking for a change of lifestyle!
