19th Century Character Building – A Unique Investment Opportunity in the Heart of Amélie-les-Bains

Located in the heart of Amélie-les-Bains, just steps from the famous thermal baths and the beautiful Saint-Quentin Church, this stunning 19th-century building immediately captivates with its elegant architecture, considered one of the most iconic in the town.

Offering approximately 442 m² of living space spread over 4 levels and 200 m² of terraces, the building currently includes 14 fully renovated and air-conditioned apartments, ranging from studios to three-room units. The property features large terraces with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and the town’s historic heritage.

Key Features of this Property

- Remarkable historic façade that naturally draws attention.
- Prime location in a renowned spa town with a loyal clientele year-round.
- Renovated apartments ready for immediate use.
- Generous spaces offering great flexibility in layout.
- An existing concierge service providing an excellent foundation for development and themed stay projects.
- 3 private parking spaces located very close to the building.

There is also the possibility to acquire an additional 14 covered and secure parking spaces, a real asset for tourism, hotel, or wellness activities.

Exceptional Transformation Potential

Beyond its current use, this building offers a rare opportunity to create a large-scale project that could contribute to the vitality of Amélie-les-Bains.

Its architecture, volumes, and location are ideal for establishing a high-end wellness center, capable of hosting:

- Yoga retreats;
- Qi Gong;
- Tai Chi;
- Meditation;
- Professional yoga training;
- Personal development workshops;
- Energy and holistic therapies;
- Fitness and rejuvenation stays.

Possible adaptations include:

- Converting several apartments into large practice rooms (yoga, martial arts, dance, Pilates, conferences, or training);
- Creating a restaurant with healthy, local cuisine on the first floor;
- Transforming the garage into a spa area with sauna, hammam, jacuzzi, and treatment rooms;
- Converting the ground floor apartment into a reception and welcome area;
- Establishing a conference, seminar, or study room on the top floor.

In the longer term, the project could evolve according to the future operator’s needs, maintaining some apartments while gradually redeveloping a hotel or wellness tourism residence.

Development Can Be Carried Out in Phases

The property allows for a gradual evolution of its use, for example:

1. Continue operating the currently rented apartments while developing a restaurant to increase income;
2. Create a spa and wellness area;
3. Gradually convert some apartments into activity rooms and training spaces;
4. Depending on the chosen project, transform all or part of the establishment into a boutique hotel, tourist residence, or a center fully dedicated to wellness.

This phased approach would allow the site to remain operational throughout the different stages of the project.

Renovations

Decorative enhancement of interior and exterior spaces as well as modernization of some facilities are needed to fully exploit the property’s potential.

Depending on the scale of the envisioned project, an overall renovation budget estimated around €700,000 would enable the creation of an exceptional establishment combining heritage, tourism, dining, accommodation, and wellness.

A Rare Opportunity

Whether you are an investor, hotel operator, restaurateur, or wellness center project leader, this property represents an exceptional chance to acquire an iconic building with numerous development prospects.

Its historic charm, prime location, and immense potential make it a unique asset on the market.

It is possible to acquire both the building and the operating SARL simultaneously, which can help reduce acquisition costs depending on the legal structure chosen.
