Montalieu-Vercieu Property Description
Dating back to before the French revolution, this unique property offers a 6 bedroom farmhouse with outbuildings, two Water Mills and a Café/Restaurant (licensed).
The stunning centrepiece of the domaine is its 6 acre lake and nearly half mile of river with full private fishing rights.
The house, south-facing, is a large six-bedroomed farmhouse style building in local stone, with numerous outbuildings.
There is a large lawn to the front of the house, leading to the river and bordered by a stream. The garden has a large summer kitchen with water and electricity laid on.
Adjoining the house, with internal access, is the café/restaurant which overlooks the lake. The fully-equipped and licensed café/restaurant seats about 30 and has a magnificent view over the lake.
The lake is very much the focal point of the property. Covering 6 acres, it is well stocked with trout and carp. Originally larger, the far end of the lake has been filled to form a river, almost a quarter of a mile in length. The fishing in the river section is classed as "first category".
The fishing rights are feudal - granted before the revolution - and there is no closed season or other legislation that affects the fishing on the lake and river. This is the only property in the region with such rights.
To the south of the lake is about 11 acres of woodland, and there are fields and pastures to the north side. The river section is gently wooded.
