Description
Nestled in the heart of Montcléra, a picturesque village in the Lot, this ancient stone auberge offers an exceptional opportunity for restoration. Originally a traditional French inn, it could be transformed back into a restaurant, a guesthouse, or a spacious family home.
Property Overview
Upon entering, you step into a welcoming reception area with a stone-built bar and large fireplace, perfect for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. This space flows into a generous lounge and dining area, where two expansive French windows allow natural light to flood in, enhancing the charm of the original stone walls and exposed wooden beams.
A shower room and WC are conveniently located near the reception area, leading to a cave, which houses the central heating system.
From the reception, stone steps lead to a passageway that provides access to the large kitchen, which has additional steps leading back down to the reception area. The passageway also features an exterior door to the rear garden, an enclosed space with great potential to become a peaceful retreat.
A wooden staircase from the kitchen leads to the second floor, where there are six spacious bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate toilet.

This property is an ideal project for someone with vision, whether restoring it as an auberge or restaurant or creating an expansive family home.
