Description of property
The whole property has been maintained to a high standard with a great deal of style and is ready to move into, the furniture could also be bought separately so all you will need will be your suitcases! As the gite has been successfully let, there is a business ready to take over with very little work. In addition, if only one bedroom in the main house was required, the other two could also be let for B&B thus making further income as they have a separate access.
The pretty village of Cordes-sur-Ciel is 10 minutes by car with commerces, schools, restaurants, supermarket amongst others and , of course, the market on Saturday mornings. Two train stations at Cordes Vindrac and Laguepie are available.
