Still relatively undiscovered by the mass market, Marseillan is a beautiful little fishing village situated on the Etang du Thau. Once a significant port for wine shipments, the village now concerns itself primarily with the cultivation of oysters, the distillation of Noilly Prat and the pursuit of the l'art de vivre. Residence Rive Gauche occupies a commanding waterfront site at the entrance to the port with uninterrupted views over the etang, the oyster beds and the town of Sete which cascades down Mont St Clair into the Mediterranean. The port offers a wide range of restaurants and chic cafés and boutiques. Marseillan ville is about 150 metres from the port and offers a further variety of restaurants and cafes plus boulangeries, domaines, caves and a lively weekly market. Residence Rive Gauche will consist of 12 superbly appointed two bedroom apartments over three floors, ranging in size from 79m˛ to 104m˛. The building will be constructed using traditional materials and craftsmanship to designs which blend the traditional and the contemporary to spectacular effect. Enjoying a sunny southerly orientation the apartments will have uninterrupted sea views. Interiors at Residence Rive Gauche will invoke traditional French elegance with a modern twist. Fully integrated kitchens will feature top specification applicances and elegant bathrooms. Each block will have both a lift and staircase. Each purchase includes one parking space with further spaces provided for visitors. For added convenience a concierge service will be available to meet and greet guests and make essential bookings to help you get the most out of your stay. The apartments at Residence Rive Gauche are offered either as a leaseback or outright purchase. Management charges at the residence will amount to no more than €8 per square metre per annum for the standard leaseback options. Under the scheme the purchaser buys a freehold property which is then 'leased back' via a commercial lease to , our management company. In return we guarantee a rental income from the property, which it secures by operating the property as tourist accommodation. We also looks after all maintenance, inside and out during the period of the lease. With a range of investment options offering guaranteed and tax efficient rental returns when not in use and strong potential for capital appreciation, Residence Rive Gauche represents both a sound investment proposition and a coup de coeur. The Languedoc is rapidly emerging as a first class tourist destination. The region is nestled along a sun drenched 300 kilometre expanse of unspoilt beaches between the Cote d'Azur and the Spanish border. Blanketed in vineyards and punctuated with ancient market towns and thriving fishing villages, the pace of life is distinctly Mediterranean. Towns in the immediate environs of Marseillan include the 16th century market town of Pezenas, where Moliere lived and worked. Now a thriving artists colony, Pezenas exudes character and charm. Just 45km away the sophisticated University city of Montpellier boasts a superb range of restaurants, cafes and bars alongside theatres, galleries, colourful markets and exclusive boutiques. Less than 30km to the west lies the bustling wine town of Beziers where rugby, wine and bullfighting are venerated in equal measure. We believe that a purchase at Residence Rive Gauche represents an excellent investment opportunity with strong potential for capital appreciation in a stable, low risk environment.
