Property Description

Situated in the beautiful countryside of the Vienne in the centre of France is this very rare opportunity to purchase a fully conforming and licenced for commercial use stocked 5-hectare carp fishery with 2 houses overlooking this stunning picturesque lake. The lake has not been used for commercial use in the past 15 years and has only been fished by friends, family, fishing associations and local tackle shops for promo weekends of new tackle yet a record has been kept of all the fish caught with the lake record currently standing at 30kg ( 66lbs)

The lake was stocked many years ago and contains mirror carp, grass carp, common carp, pike, zander, black bass, perch and plenty of silverfish, the French owner will not agree to drain or net the lake, as he is passionate about this lake and insists draining a lake compromises the biochemistry and ecologie of the lake which holds natural food sources for the fish such as freshwater muscles. The fish caught are extremely healthy and dated photographic proof along with weights are available during a visit, the current estimated value of recently caught stock is around 150 000€. The lake also has a small stock pond where the owner has a Kio Carp breeding programme in place, the main lake holds some huge koi carp as well.   The potential to create a thriving business here is huge, as this lake is a hidden gem that has never been marketed to the carp fishing industry, therefore something new and untouched. A recent 72-hour fishing weekend with 4 French anglers produced over 48 fish all over 20kg.

The lake has a total of 10 swims 5 of them have wooden cabins, and the other 5 are open swims for bivvies and a toilet shower block, which has seen others I would classify this as 5-star accommodation in comparison. The complete walk around the lake is 1km with vehicle access available right around the lake, although the owner does not allow cars around the lake.

The property comes with 2 houses, the first house comprises an old stone farmhouse renovated and comprising of on the ground floor, entrance hallway, large open plan kitchen - dining lounge, with French doors leading out onto the South facing terrace and overlooking the lake, a large living room used as an office and library at the moment, with direct access into the garage.1st floor 4 bedrooms and a toilet. House two is a newly built property that's just about to be completed and requires final cladding externally and comprises a large open plan lounge-kitchen-dining room with 3 sets of French doors out onto the terrace, 2 double bedrooms, a bathroom and a toilet.

The property sits in an isolated position surrounded by approx 4 hectares of land and a lake of 5 hectares, it even has its own paintball park, which would be ideal for combining fishing and camping side by side and this property is a must to view to really appreciate how rare this is and what it has to offer.
