Full Description


The Auberge de la Source Bleue is for sale. A former coaching inn dating back to 1826, superbly restored in 2019, located directly on the banks of the Cusancin, a first-category trout river, the Auberge-Restaurant de la Source Bleue awaits you. Currently operating as a bed and breakfast and gourmet restaurant, this solid stone farmhouse would also be ideal as a large family home, 11 km from Baume-les-Dames and less than half an hour from Valdahon. Warm interiors and exceptional exteriors. Step through the door of this beautiful stone building and be enveloped by its warm atmosphere... And the superb bar immediately welcomes you with a special house beer. The wine cellar is also nearby! Between the bar and the dining room, a fireplace adds to the cozy ambiance, especially in the autumn. The restaurant currently seats up to 56 guests. An impressive covered terrace, built in 2019 as an extension of the dining room, allows for up to 150 additional covers during peak season, with seasonal staff of course. A professional kitchen (Lotus range and Rational ovens) with a separate dishwashing area currently prepares fine local cuisine 5 days a week. It is offered as an Option, as is the existing Category Iv liquor license. Outbuildings and a garage complete this level. Upstairs: two superb suites are rented with a very good annual occupancy rate. Potential to create two more suites... Also on this level are an office, a laundry room, and two rooms with two shower rooms/WCs. On the second floor, you'll find the private space, converted into a rooftop terrace, with a beautiful living room featuring a pellet stove, two bedrooms, and their own shower rooms/WCs. Over 400sqm in total, spread across these three levels. Outside, the enchanting setting of the Cusance Valley unfolds before you, nestled between the river and a nearby cliff. The green spaces bordering the Cusançin (a well-known trout stream!) are all privately owned, as is the established water right, including the feeder canal, which would allow you to create a trout pond or even a carp fishing pond. The property comprises 80 ares and 47 centiares in total, encompassing the building, outbuildings, and the banks of the Cusançin. A true paradise, a feast for the eyes and the palate! Parking for 30 vehicles extends from the restaurant terrace. The septic tank meets current standards. Property taxes are Eur920. A Category Iv liquor license and professional equipment, valued at Eur58,000, are available as an option. A very attractive prospect for someone looking to take over the existing business. Details available upon request. Ideal for a family holiday, or for taking over an existing bed and breakfast business with meals or a restaurant. See you soon on the banks of the Cusancin River, when the weather is nice.
