A small paradise with great potential,
in the heart of a private valley in Wallonia
Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac, closed to traffic and accessible via a private road bordered by meadows and woods, this exceptional estate reveals itself as a world apart. 17,192 m² of land in a small, entirely private valley, with no neighbors, no main roads, and no surrounding farmland—only the river bordering the property, the forests, the meadows, and the silence. Just a two-minute drive from the center of Andenne, this location combines remarkable accessibility with complete privacy, two qualities rarely found together at this level.
The heart of the estate lies in its former tannery —a characterful building steeped in Wallonia's industrial heritage, transformed by a profound restoration carried out between 2011 and 2018 over seven years of meticulous craftsmanship. A new partial timber frame was installed beneath a multi-layered insulated roof with 15 cm of rock wool, along with a completely new electrical system, heating system, plumbing, and drainage system with its own wastewater treatment plant. New double-glazed merbau windows and doors —a tropical hardwood renowned for its durability and elegance—lend the entire structure a cohesive and refined visual identity. What was built here was built to last.
The main house, measuring 150 m², offers three bedrooms and is ready to move into. The renovated tannery houses five attractive apartments —a sixth is possible—offering approximately 500 m² of living space shared between the apartments and common areas. All apartments meet current fire safety standards, with fire-resistant partitions and doors conforming to fire department guidelines. Two of the apartments have been approved as bed and breakfasts, and planning permission for two additional guest rooms has been granted—a significant advantage for any tourist accommodation project. A large courtyard and ample parking complete this residential complex, which boasts remarkably smooth traffic flow.
The outdoor spaces offer a lifestyle like no other. The12-stall stable —complete with a riding arena, paddock, adjoining meadows, shelter, barn, and tack room—provides a comprehensive and rare equestrian facility, ready for immediate use. The500 m² swimming pond, fed by the river with official authorization and reaching a depth of 2 meters, offers a natural swimming experience in the heart of nature. Two wellness areas —each equipped with a Finnish bath, sauna, and shower, one with a terrace and dock on the pond, the other with a terrace and outdoor shower—make this estate a place of complete rejuvenation, ideal for guests staying in upscale guesthouses or for personal use.
The potential of this estate is as unique as its character. The rental income is around €8,000 per month, confirmed by current management. Numerous projects are possible: gîtes, bed and breakfast, boarding stables, co-housing, or a retirement residence. The estate boasts its own 99-meter-deep well, equipped with a pumping and purification system using filters and UV light—an unlimited water reserve that can be distributed either as a supplement to or replacement for mains water. Fiber optic internet is available. This property awaits only the vision of its next owner.
Andenne is a town in the province of Namur, ideally located at the crossroads of Wallonia. Just a two-minute drive from the town center, the property benefits from excellent accessibility while maintaining complete privacy. The Meuse River and its valleys, the nearby Ardennes forests, and the rich Walloon historical heritage create a living environment that attracts a steadily growing clientele of guesthouses and bed and breakfasts.
Belgium offers buyers an attractive tax framework for rental investment — rental income from unfurnished properties rented to individuals is generally taxed based on the indexed cadastral income, often significantly lower than actual rents. Capital gains on resale are not taxed after five years of ownership. An ideal context for long-term wealth building.
