Le Figaro wrote:The hamlet of Courbefy, in Haute-Vienne, is for sale for 330.000 euros. There are ten days left to acquire the set, abandoned since 2008.
It is a sale to say the least surprising that unveils this Tuesday Le Parisien. An entire hamlet, that of Courbefy, in the commune of Busssière-Galand in Haute-Vienne, is looking for an aquerator. Located 40 km from Limoges, the now deserted complex includes 19 buildings and sports facilities including a tennis court, horse boxes, a swimming pool ... 330.000 euros necessary for its acquisition but for the moment, no one came forward.
The place, inhabited until the 1970s, gradually emptied under the effect of the rural exodus. Subsequently transformed into a kind of holiday village, it welcomed tourists and colonies. The last owners of the site, a couple from the Gers in the 1990s, failed in their attempt to develop a hotel and restaurant complex. Now abandoned and overgrown with vegetation, it is only visited by thieves, revelers and squatters ... To the chagrin of the inhabitants of the region who would like to see the hamlet brought back to life that reminds them of so many memories .
Only 10 days left to acquire the hamlet
Seeing their village become a ghost is truly heartbreaking for many locals, like Jean-Pierre Château, who remembers "this atmosphere of the old days" and "votive festivals that were organized until the late 1960s ”. The site's past was even prestigious, according to the nearby chapel or the ruins of a 2000th century castle. At that time, the village would have even counted up to XNUMX souls!
The community of communes of the Monts de Châlus "has studied the possibility of acquiring well but we must be objective, our small municipalities do not have the means to embark on such a rehabilitation project which would cost at least as expensive as the buyout of the hamlet, "lamented Bernard Guilhem, deputy mayor of Saint-Nicolas-Courbefy in Europe 1.Assisted last Monday by the Limoges court, the village could not find a buyer. He only has 10 days left to find a buyer, otherwise he will remain the property of Crédit Agricole.
