On the western shore of Lake Annecy, in the hamlet of Le Bessard, L'Oasis has been welcoming swimmers since 1948. Originally the Auberge du Bessard, opened by Alice and Louis Lacombe, it is a lakeside address that Annecy families have been passing down for three generations. Gravel underfoot, plane trees overhead, a view reaching across to the Tournette, and the kind of unhurried summer feeling that has largely disappeared elsewhere on the lake.
A new chapter begins. The venue has found a new owner, and the sale was handled jointly by BARNES Mont-Blanc and NOVAO Immobilier Conseil.
Over 500 sqm on the water, six kilometres from Annecy
Three things make this address rare. Over 500 sqm directly on the water first, in a commune where nothing new gets built at the water's edge any more. A terrace next, shaded by plane trees, open to the lake and reachable by boat from the jetty. And Sévrier itself, less than ten minutes from central Annecy by road, linked to the town by the Voie Verte, the cycle path running some forty kilometres along the lake.
Are you looking for this kind of asset on the lake ? Very little comes up. Sévrier shares its lakefront between a municipal beach, a watersports centre and a handful of long-established venues, in a commune of 4,300 residents. Every sale here counts as an event, and this one joins our recent sales around Lake Annecy, even though it is not listed there.
BARNES and NOVAO join forces on commercial property across both Savoie departments
This transaction also marks the first step in a partnership. BARNES Mont-Blanc and NOVAO Immobilier Conseil are combining their expertise on commercial property in Savoie and Haute-Savoie. Based in Sillingy, NOVAO works on business assets, commercial premises and hospitality. We bring the network and the high-end client base of a prestige house. NOVAO had already worked in La Clusaz and Megève, two markets we also cover.
The two approaches complement each other. A lakeside venue does not sell like a town-centre retail unit, nor quite like a residential property. It calls for reading the operating value, how rare lakefront has become and what a buyer can actually do with it. That is the point of this partnership.
Do you own a commercial asset around Lake Annecy ?
A lakeside business remains a hard asset to sell, and marketing alone does not always bring the right buyer forward. If you own this kind of asset and are thinking about selling, get in touch with the consultants at the BARNES Annecy agency to draw on both our buyers and NOVAO's experience with this type of venue. And of course, for any residential or investment plans, you can also browse our properties for sale in Sévrier.
