Other information

Expansion potential:

Fishing, nature or photography holidays would do really well here. There is a huge market for fishing holidays. Eco tourism is also a very viable proposition and the productive potager (vegetable garden) is run on biodynamic principles. There is also an opportuinity to make free electricity from the two waterfalls from the lake.

Competition / Market:

None in this area as we have the only large lake in the area and there are no restaurants or hotels near.

Reasons for selling:

Our children have grown up, granny is in a residential care home and my husband and I want to move to a smaller house now. We will be staying in the same area. Should the buyer want to buy the gite and the barn, it is possible to buy these plus the main house, the adjoining land and the lake. These can be bought for 100 000 Euros extra, otherwise we will keep the gite and barn as our retirement home. (Main house and adjoining land and lake over 4.5 hectares = 350000 Euros, Main house, Gite, Barn and all the extra land = 450000 Euros.)
