Former 16th-century abbey – Character property at the gateway to the Loire Gorges.
Built in the 17th century, this character property has been an abbey, then a popular restaurant, and more recently has hosted seminars, retreats and training courses. Today, it awaits a new project, led by lovers of places steeped in history.
Located in the commune of Vézelin-sur-Loire, close to the superb Loire Gorges, the property enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining easily accessible: one hour from the centre of Lyon, close to Roanne, Feurs, Balbigny and Saint-Germain-Laval. SNCF (TER) train station 9 minutes away.
The main house, with 450 m² of living space, comprises:
- on the ground floor: a cosy living room with a fireplace insert, an elegant dining room with an alcove, a large study (or second living room, depending on requirements) leading to a bedroom with shower room and toilet, a professional kitchen and practical ancillary rooms.
- Upstairs: ten bedrooms, each with its own shower room and toilet, as well as a meeting room.
The attic is insulated and in very good condition.
The property is in good condition overall. Modernisation work on the upstairs bedrooms will improve comfort while respecting the character of the place.
Several outbuildings are arranged around a large courtyard:
- A separate guest house (104 m²) with kitchen, living room, shower room/laundry room with toilet; upstairs, a large bedroom and a mezzanine for extra sleeping space.
- A separate studio with a beautiful view of the property's surroundings.
- A superb two-room workshop totalling nearly 180 m² with a large fireplace and bathroom facilities, ideal for artistic or craft activities or as a creative space.
- Former stables, which can be used for storage or as a shelter for vehicles.
- Large carport.
The fully enclosed grounds cover an area of 5,435 m².
It features a beautiful swimming pool (12 m x 6 m, liner changed in 2023) with a concrete deck and a shelter with water and electricity.
The property is ideal for a large family home or a hospitality project: guest rooms, seminars, retreats, artists' residence or mixed use.
