It’s a gloomy, rainy spring day here, and all I want to do write a bestselling mystery series, at this desk, in this historic mansion, while a storm howls outside.
This historic mansion is listed with the French Heritage Society as it was built between the 15th and 19th century and is remarkably well-preserved. It contains 8 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, reception rooms, and the grounds even contain an orangery. The hotel is near Alliers, a town historically famous for its spa, casino, and racecourse. The mansion is also 70 miles from Lyon.
Price? On the market now for $163,000.
The dream: indulge in becoming an eccentric hotelier and slowly renovate this ancient house while writing novels and entertaining your guests (and probably some ghosts too?). The house is so inspiring, imagine what stories took place here, the drama and intrigue. 🗝🚪🔍🖋📚🍷🌫
