Property:
Marchamp (01) – 1760 longère with 1.6 ha of meadow adjoining the residential area

In the heart of the village of Marchamp, a 175 m² stone longère with outbuildings, set on a single contiguous landholding of 1 ha 59 a 93 ca. The building opens directly onto the meadow parcel, which backs onto the wooded slope. Here, the land is as much a part of the property as the house.

The land:
The property comprises three cadastral parcels in section AP:
• 2 parcels totalling 16 a 21 ca: the building footprint, courtyard and surrounding grounds.
• 1 parcel of 1 ha 43 a 72 ca: an adjoining meadow on a gentle slope, opening onto the hillside.

This meadow is in an area listed in the departmental inventory of dry grasslands. These open habitats, on poor, calcareous soil, have become rare in the Bugey. Their ecological value depends on simple, consistent management: late mowing or extensive grazing, with no ploughing, soil amendments or planting. This inventory does not prohibit agricultural use; it provides guidance for it. Maintaining the parcel is essential to its conservation, while leaving it unmanaged leads to scrub encroachment.

The property is therefore suited to a buyer looking to make use of this land: small-scale livestock farming (sheep, horses or goats), mowing, or making it available to a local farmer. Depending on the circumstances, compatible use may also qualify for agro-environmental support schemes.

The buildings:
• 1760 longère, with one storey plus attic space.
• 7 rooms, including 4 bedrooms.
• 2 shower rooms and 3 toilets.
• Fireplace, double glazing, west-facing.
• Roof completely redone.
• Attached outbuildings (barns, storage buildings).
• Connected to the mains sewer system.
• Oil-fired central heating with radiators.
• Interior needs freshening up; work required.
• Property tax: €409.

Energy Performance Certificate issued on: energy consumption F (347 kWh/m²/year), emissions F (73 kg CO2/m²/year).
