A unique property combining history, nature, and profitability
Charming stone farmhouse of 140 m² on a 5,275 m² estate – Perfect for a guesthouse or holiday rental project with its 5 tourist accommodations totaling about 80 m² – a visit is a must if you're ready to change your life
The Domaine des Petites Sœurs is located 800 meters from the historic center of Vence
Situated in a protected site recognized for its religious architecture (subtle facade decoration) and its garden featuring a variety of species, this stone farmhouse dating from 1804, formerly a religious retreat (just a few minutes on foot from the heart of Vence), has been tastefully fully restored. It offers a peaceful, authentic, and green living environment with strong potential for rental and tourism development or family reunification.
The estate is located in a sought-after residential neighborhood and boasts a unique charm for a personal or professional project based on tourist rentals.

Very good profitability with excellent traveler reviews

Strong development potential:
5 additional cottages to renovate spread over the grounds (3 buildings of 16 m² convertible into studios + 1 stone cottage of 20 m² with a mezzanine accommodating 4 people + 1 11 m² building suitable as a master bedroom already with a bathroom) – sound roof and structure – (ideal for gîtes or guest rooms)

Estate perfectly suited for a tourism, events, wellness, or family reunion project
With 6 renovated tourist accommodations, the estate could generate an estimated annual rental income of over €110,000.
By developing only the rental activity on the existing studios, you generate an 8% gross yield based on a sale price of €1,350,000
If you rent out the house year-round for €2,200/month, the yield increases to 10% gross based on a sale price of €1,350,000
If you rent the house seasonally for 16 weeks per year at €450 per night, the yield rises even further, approaching nearly 12%
