Superb Hamlet of 4 Houses and Swimming Pools Converted for Hig

Property Description

Superb 4-house hamlet conversion and holiday rental business
A stunning hamlet conversion at the foot of Joucas that has created a well-established rental business with 4 independent houses, each with private pool and garden.
Three of the houses are 3-bedroom and one is a 2-bedroom. Total occupancy is 20 people in its current configuration. 40% of rental guests are repeat bookings, and the business consistently yields a 6-7% return. It would suit an investor or someone looking to live on site in one of the houses, while renting out the others, or receiving friends and family without feeling invaded.
The houses have a contemporary Provence design that is absolutely what renters are looking for now, with open-plan living spaces and south-facing exteriors. Two of the pools are heated.
The village of Joucas with its grocery, café and restaurants is a 5-minute walk, and this is a quiet country setting, with views to other hill-top villages and the Luberon mountain.
Apart from the elegant design and comfort of each house, the key selling point here is the perfect location, which is within 10 minutes of the key Luberon destinations of Gordes, Roussillon, Menerbes, Bonnieux, Lacoste and Goult.
The sale of the property includes its rentals website: the domain registration dates back to 2011 and is well ranked on Google for relevant searches. The sale also includes furniture worth approximately 50,000 euros, so the houses are ready to continue as rentals.
