General condition
The Gîtes stay fully furnished and are in good condition; modernisation of bathrooms and maybe some kitchens would need to be done. The main dwelling needs complete restoration. The ground floor of the main dwelling and the West Gîtes have an oil central heating system. The others are equipped with electric convectors. There is simple glazed wooden joinery. There are often ancient floor tiles.

Regarding the work which will need to be done, it depends on what the future use of this property will be. If a family wants to run it as a Gîtes business, then the main residence needs total renovation and just some updating in the Gîtes. The size of the building would allow it to become as well a Hotel, then it would need a total renovation job.
