Reimagined former farmhouse on the outskirts of Lille
Located just minutes from Lille in the heart of Wattignies, this remarkable property offering 448.3 sq m of living space elegantly reimagines the spirit of traditional 19th-century courtyard farmhouses.
Completely redesigned by the current owners starting in 2011, the estate now blends contemporary architecture, high-end amenities, and significant character within a prime setting spanning nearly 2,000 sq m.
Behind its preserved facades, the property is organized around a vast inner courtyard and features several independent living areas, offering rare versatility: it is equally suited as an exceptional family home, a professional workspace, a multi-generational residence, or a rental investment.
The main house forms the heart of the estate. Spanning three levels, it impresses with its generous proportions and a comprehensive renovation executed to exacting standards. The spectacular living area nearly 70 sq m with a cathedral ceiling is bathed in natural light and boasts a distinctly contemporary aesthetic. Pristine white interiors highlight the quality of the materials, built-in furnishings, and finishes. The layout includes five bedrooms, one bathroom, and two shower rooms, designed for both daily comfort and entertaining.
Outside, a vast south-facing terrace creates a natural extension of the living areas. The garden is harmoniously divided into a space suitable for a swimming pool (directly accessible from the house) and a more secluded orchard featuring fruit trees and a vegetable greenhouse a rare green oasis in the immediate vicinity of local amenities.
The property also offers significant income-generating potential thanks to four carefully appointed independent units. These include a high-end apartment comprising a suite, an office, a fully equipped kitchen, and a private terrace; two additional studio apartments; and a one-bedroom apartment (T2) that enjoys its own address and complete independence. The property generates an estimated monthly rental income of approximately €2,450 (excluding utilities).
Regarding parking, a large, secure, covered carport accommodates three vehicles, with additional parking space available on the property. A dedicated electrical connection is also included.
The property enjoys a highly sought-after location, right next to shops, everyday amenities, and renowned local establishments (food lovers will appreciate the proximity to the Croquet bakery/patisserie). Bus routes provide quick access to Lille while allowing residents to enjoy a leafy, residential setting.
A rare find on the market, blending the charm of a converted farmhouse with contemporary standards of comfort and functionality offering a remarkable balance of quality of life, heritage value, and rental yield.
