Description

A46973ISO24 - The property is offered freehold, giving the purchaser the opportunity to define and develop their own operating and investment strategy.

The property benefits from a strategic location in Lalinde (24150), on the road towards Sarlat and within close proximity of the town's main shops, services and business areas. It is located close to a supermarket as well as several established local economic and industrial operators, including Munksjö and Polirey, further strengthening the appeal of the area for commercial and professional activities.

Lalinde is also strategically positioned between Bergerac and the Périgord Noir, with direct access to the main routes towards Bergerac, Sarlat and many of the Dordogne's popular tourist villages. Its location, close to local amenities, business areas and traffic flows towards the Périgord Noir, represents a significant advantage for an investor looking for a visible and easily accessible site, particularly for self-storage or services aimed at both individuals and businesses.
The town is also served by a railway station on the Bordeaux–Libourne–Bergerac–Le Buisson–Sarlat line, providing an additional transport link for local residents, employees and visitors.
Beyond its tourist appeal, Lalinde has an established local economic base. The town has approximately 1,378 jobs and more than 350 economically active establishments, with a significant presence of commerce, transport, services, construction, professional activities and healthcare-related businesses.
Lalinde’s local business environment is also well suited to a potential small- and medium-sized commercial premises strategy. According to INSEE, 75.7% of establishments with employees in the town have between 1 and 9 employees, potentially providing a local customer base for offices, workshops, storage units and independent premises suited to small businesses and professionals.


Bergerac is approximately 25 km away, while Sarlat-la-Canéda can be reached in around 45 minutes and Périgueux is 55 minutes away, placing the property in an area benefiting from local, professional and tourism-related demand.


*All measurements are approximate and non-contractual.*

The property comprises four separate plots and includes:

Approximately 1,575 m² of built space, comprising:

* Approximately 100 storage units
* An apartment of approximately 130 m²
* An independent studio of approximately 55 m²
* Approximately 106 m² of office space
* Kitchen, storage and various service areas

A 2,172 m² plot of land classified as UB

The scale and configuration of the property provide considerable flexibility and allow a number of different investment strategies to be considered.

Planning note: In France, “UB” is a local planning designation used for urban development areas under the relevant local planning regulations (Plan Local d’Urbanisme – PLU). The 2,172 m² plot is classified as UB, which may offer potential for future development, extension or construction, subject to the applicable planning regulations, permitted uses and the necessary planning permissions. The UB classification does not, in itself, guarantee that a specific development project will be authorised.

Self-Storage with Potential for Recurring Rental Income

At the heart of the property are approximately 100 storage units, offering a configuration particularly well suited to a self-storage operation and presenting the potential for recurring rental income.

The sale concerns the freehold property and buildings only. The existing business and operating activity are not included in the sale.

This gives the purchaser the opportunity to develop their own operating strategy, including potentially letting the individual storage units, subject to the applicable conditions and regulations.

The main building could also potentially be subdivided to create several independent commercial units, allowing different businesses or activities to operate within the same property.

Depending on the purchaser's plans and the applicable regulations, a variety of configurations could be considered, including:

* Small retail units
* Professional practices
* Medical or healthcare practices
* Production or craft workshops
* Offices
* Other commercial or professional activities

The ability to accommodate several businesses or professionals on the same site could allow an investor to diversify tenants and potential income streams, rather than relying on a single activity or occupier.


Residential Accommodation

The property also includes an approximately 130 m² apartment and an independent 55 m² studio, providing significant additional flexibility and value.

The 130 m² apartment comprises:

Ground floor:

* Entrance
* WC

First floor:

* Large living area with integrated kitchen of approximately 78 m²
* First bedroom of approximately 17 m² with en-suite shower room
* Second bedroom of approximately 27.6 m² with en-suite shower room
* Two WCs

Features:

* Air-to-air heat pump and air conditioning
* Wood-burning stove
* Acoustic insulation
* Adjustable external sun blinds

Depending on the purchaser's plans and the applicable regulations, the apartment could be used as accommodation for the owner-operator, site manager or employee, or potentially provide an additional rental income stream.


Independent 55 m² Studio

The independent studio provides further flexibility and could potentially be used as separate accommodation, accommodation for a site manager or as an additional source of rental income, subject to the applicable regulations.

It comprises:

* Entrance with open-plan fitted kitchen of approximately 16.1 m²
* Utility room, WC and technical area
* Living area of approximately 20.4 m²
* Mezzanine of approximately 16.4 m² with sleeping area, shower and washbasin
* Private outdoor terrace of approximately 14.4 m²

Features:

* Reversible air conditioning

The independent nature of the studio adds further flexibility to the property and allows the purchaser to consider a number of possible uses.


Attractive Energy Infrastructure

The property also benefits from a range of energy-related installations which are particularly interesting given the size of the site.

These include:

* Photovoltaic solar panels
* Battery storage system and installation providing energy autonomy
* Mains drainage and lifting pump
* Air-to-air heat pump and air conditioning

The presence of solar panels combined with battery storage is an attractive feature for an investor looking to manage energy consumption and operating costs across a property of this scale.


2,172 m² Plot of Land in UB Zone

One of the particularly interesting features for an investor is the presence of an independent plot of approximately 2,172 m².

Subject to the applicable planning regulations and the necessary permissions, this plot could offer potential opportunities for future development, extension or construction.

It therefore represents an additional potential source of value and future capital appreciation, complementing the existing buildings and commercial activity.


An Opportunity for Different Investment Profiles and Strategies

Given its configuration and substantial floor area, this property could appeal to a range of purchasers and support several different investment strategies:

* An investor seeking a commercial asset with recurring income potential, particularly through the self-storage units.

* An investor looking to diversify income streams, by operating or letting different areas of the property separately.

* An investor wishing to subdivide the main building into several independent commercial units and let them to different businesses or professionals.

* A purchaser wishing to create a multi-activity professional hub, potentially bringing together retail, professional practices, healthcare professionals, offices or workshops, subject to the necessary permissions.

* A professional or group of professionals wishing to share premises and certain facilities, while retaining separate working spaces.

* An investor seeking medium- to long-term development potential, particularly through the 2,172 m² plot classified as UB.

* An owner-operator wishing to run a business from the site while benefiting from residential accommodation for themselves or a site manager.

This diversity of potential strategies is one of the property's key strengths. The purchaser could choose to focus on one core activity, or alternatively create a multi-activity, multi-tenant commercial property, with the potential to diversify both tenants and income streams.


A Particularly Unusual Investment Opportunity in Lalinde

This is a particularly unusual investment opportunity in Lalinde, bringing together within a single property:

Self-storage facilities, commercial space, residential accommodation, energy infrastructure and development land.

Beyond the existing storage activity, the configuration of the buildings also opens the possibility of creating a multi-activity commercial property, with different areas potentially being grouped and let to several businesses, professionals or activities, subject to the necessary permissions.

The combination of approximately 1,575 m² of built space, around 100 storage units, two residential units, office space, solar energy infrastructure and a 2,172 m² UB-zoned plot provides an investor with considerable scope to develop their own strategy and unlock further value over the medium to long term.

Additional financial, technical and operational information can be made available to qualified purchasers as part of their acquisition project.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
