Our property of the Week is proving very popular and generating a lot of enquiries, but it is lovely and well priced so it is no surprise!

A substantial detached French Longere Farmhouse sitting in a 2.2 hectares plot comprising large apple orchard, pastureland, woodland (ideal for fuelling wood-burners) and small stream. The garden surrounding the property is hedged and private and is lawned with fantastic views over adjoining farmland.

Property with income potential

Fancy running your own vineyard, of course you do!

SLR00497 for sale in france   SLR00497 for sale in south of france

Set near to a lovely town bursting with art and culture, 20 minutes from the sea and not far from the A9 and A75 motorways in Languedoc-Roussellin. 

A change of lifestyle, a change of context, living closer to nature and creating noble products: wine, olive oil, truffles! 

Become a wine, truffle and olive oil producer in the south of France! Here on this small estate, on a very human scale, which can be run by a couple, find everything you need to produce quality, live close to the elements, and provide an income by the fruits of your labor, while living on site in the simple cosy home of 70m2. 

Find here 1 hectare of olive trees (230 trees) with a half in Lucca variety, in total producing between 260-500 litres of oil per year (2000 - 4000 kg of olives per year depending on the year).

And the vineyard, planted in wide rows and on wire, offering 1.5 hectares with 5000 plants, planted around its beautiful underground winery, with a production capacity of 80 hecto-liters representing about 8000 bottles a year (white and red combined). All winemaking equipment included (barrels, fibre-glass tanks, press, tractor, etc.) so no additional material investment required. 

In addition, 120 truffle oaks just starting to produce, so additional revenue coming! 
To live off of this activity, you must do all the work yourself (no full time employee), but that's the beauty of this place, it can be done by a couple (or family).

Raising funds from your UK property maybe the solution

I was clearing out some images from a very old computer this week when I came across some photos I had stored of the first house I bought in France back in 1991; there were also photos of me with a full head of hair, but we won't go into that!

I always remember when we first saw the property we could not quite afford it BUT it was so 100% right for us we had to find a way of getting the money together.

We did this with a re-mortgage of our UK property and it actually worked out that by changing lender and getting a lower fixed rate deal we were able to buy our house in France and have the monthly repayments reduced.

At the time it felt like we were getting the house for free, of course we weren't but with a lower payment going out of my bank account it certainly felt like it and it turned out that by putting my money into 'bricks and mortar' it was the best deal I ever did.

SO if you are considering borrowing to buy a house in France don't just go down the 'French mortgage' route, contact Tim Durkin and see what options you have closer to home for buying your dream second home in France.

We are proud to work in partnership with STAG Mortgage & Insurance Services. Tim Durkin is your specialist contact in this British owned and managed company.

Whether you have found the perfect French home for sale or still looking at the options for buying French property Cle France and Tim Durkin at Stag Mortgages and Insurance Services can help you to find the best solution to make it happen.

Raising the finance to buy your dream property in France can be achieved from various French and euro loans and mortgages available. However for those of you who would like the added peace of mind to deal with this at home, within the UK and in your own language then Tim at STAG Mortgages could be your best option.
