luxury property for sale Langres, France

Ref 4840: Country house with commercial potential for sale in Haute-Marne The abbey church, situated in the heart of a rural village with a genuine local character, offers significant potential for tourism. The parents of the current owners once ran a guesthouse there, as well as a restaurant renowned throughout the region. The property is set in a particularly pleasant, undulating and wooded setting, ideal for tourism and relaxing holidays. The surrounding landscapes, comprising vast forests and country lanes, contribute greatly to the area’s charm. In the immediate vicinity of the village, just a few kilometres away, there is also a golf course and several lakes and ponds, further enhancing the region’s appeal. The building features a beautiful Renaissance façade across three storeys, with its large mullioned windows. A gun port, situated in a corner turret on the right, serves as a reminder of the dark period of the Wars of Religion and the disastrous raids by German mercenaries (1567 and 1587). The windows were added in the 18th century. The abbey church has been restored in several phases since 1974 by the parents of the current sellers. Inside, the dining rooms are adorned with monumental fireplaces from the 12th and 16th centuries that immediately transport us back to the Middle Ages. The place exudes a unique atmosphere where the earthy charm of a Rabelais would not seem out of place. The property could be run as a business, featuring a professional kitchen and themed guest rooms. You will have the option of staying next door, in an outbuilding adjoining the abbey church, equipped with modern comforts.
