Buying a chalet in the Morvan
Becoming a chalet owner on the Domaine de la Cabane Verte
The 42 residences on the Cabane Verte estate are owned by individuals and companies who think it’s a great investment, both smart and fun.
If you are interested in purchasing a chalet, please contact the management.
Why become a homeowner?
You’ll have your own residence on one of France’s most beautiful lakes, so you can enjoy year-round holidays and benefit from rental income that covers your costs… without doing anything.
You occupy your chalet at your convenience by booking your stays with reception. Hotel services included: we even make your bed and prepare your chalet before you arrive. You can enjoy “Bistrot” catering on site or “chalet takeaway”, also for New Year’s Eve.
Full concierge service on site 7/7 all year round:
- Technical management: troubleshooting, maintenance, minor improvements, management of subcontractors.
- Housekeeping: cleaning, laundry, maintenance of small equipment.
- Rental management (web promotion, pricing, networking, 7/7 reservation service, administrative and commercial management of your contracts), welcoming your guests (welcome booklet, tourist information, etc.), installation and cleaning, etc. This service is extended to include management of your chalet’s resale (sales mandate).
Prices for services are known in advance (no surprises, this is not a syndicate). You rent the land and pay an annual rent to cover management costs (renting the land to the Town Hall, upkeep of green spaces by ESAT, upkeep of the estate and common infrastructures). There are no property or real estate taxes, and no notary or transfer fees. VAT can be reclaimed.

The Domaine team is in constant communication with the owners. A person dedicated to the owners ensures the relay. We also offer :
- Book your stays 7 days a week (in advance or at the last minute) via reception (by telephone or e-mail) and via the intranet booking tool; you have access to the booking diary in real time.
- A shared space for information on all the technical aspects of your property (equipment, interventions, etc.); you can communicate directly with the managers via the platform.
