Terms of Sale
The property is sold fully furnished and equipped. The price includes both the building and the business: furniture, equipment, clientele, and future bookings are included. The allocation between the building and the business can be adjusted according to the buyer’s wishes or constraints.

The transfer can also be done by selling 100% of the shares of the SCI owning the building and/or the operating SARL, subject to usual agreements and conditions. In this case, the overall price will be reviewed according to the company’s situation and commitments at the time of sale. The owners can support the buyer for a duration to be defined.

Business figures, financial statements, plans, and the immersive Matterport virtual tour will be provided after a thorough buyer discovery and proof of financial capacity.

An exceptional address at the foot of the Cité
Built in 1890 by Alsatian brewer Fritz Lauer, this imposing residence full of history is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful buildings in Carcassonne. In the early 2000s, two years of complete renovation and the talent of a renowned Toulouse decorator restored its former grandeur. A more recent renovation campaign transformed it into a high-end, modern, and efficient guesthouse, while fully respecting its historic structure.

Located in the heart of the city, equidistant from the Medieval City and the Bastide Saint-Louis (about 700 m, approximately 8 minutes on foot), the property offers from nearly all its accommodations a direct, sometimes spectacular view of the Cité’s ramparts and its famous July 14th fireworks.

A recognized and profitable guesthouse
Supported by a recently modernized website, the house welcomes demanding international clientele year-round, who come for the refinement of the place, quality of service, and the pleasure of discovering the city on foot. Its reputation is reflected in a 9.4/10 rating on Booking from nearly 900 customer reviews over the past three years, and excellent visibility on booking platforms. Occupancy rates and turnover are remarkable for an establishment of this type, and the business still offers promising development opportunities.

No work is required: the takeover can be immediate and continuous.
