Description
Divonne-les-Bains — Maison de ville de 161m² avec jardin et local indépendant sur rue de 34m².
Idéalement située Grande Rue, cette propriété rare conjugue vie urbaine et optimisation patrimoniale.
Derrière sa façade de caractère, la maison dévoile de beaux volumes et un beau jardin avec une agréable terrasse suspendue de 25m², tous deux exposés plein sud et sans vis-à-vis.
La maison séduit par son séjour lumineux au charme haussmannien, avec parquets massifs et cheminée en marbre. Cet espace de réception est à proximité immédiate de la confortable cuisine contemporaine.
Côté nuit, la maison propose 5 chambres, dont 2 avec salle d'eau privative. Elle offre également un bureau.
Partout, le charme de l'ancien s'allie avec élégance à une décoration plus actuelle, créant une atmosphère chaleureuse et raffinée.
En complément, la maison bénéficie d'une cave de 56m².
Enfin, véritable atout, un local indépendant sur rue de 34m² offre de nombreuses possibilités : revenus locatifs, activité professionnelle ou extension de la surface habitable. Les honoraires sont à la charge du vendeur. Les informations sur les risques auxquels ce bien est exposé sont disponibles sur le site Géorisques : www.georisques.gouv.fr.

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
