Rare opportunity – Industrial building with loft conversion potential

Former market hall to renovate or convert into a loft - 15 minutes from Morges

Located in a neighborhood with strong potential, this former individual market garden hall, once dedicated to the production of endives, dating from 1820, retains all its historical charm while offering large volumes and strong development potential.

Surface area and volumes:

Net usable floor area: approximately 260 m² per level, on two main levels

ECA volume: 2,645 m³

Description :

The ground floor houses several storage areas, accessible via multiple ground-level entrances and a loading dock in the northeast. The upper floor was partially converted into a large art gallery in 2011, offering a bright, open main room running its entire length.

Construction and condition:

Original masonry and concrete structure, hollow-core slab between levels

Gable roof, covered with terracotta interlocking tiles

Facades mainly rendered, with partial wood cladding on the southeast facade

Exterior joinery and windows to be modernized or repainted

Gas heating with diffusion via infrared air heaters

High-voltage electricity, up to standard (last OIBT inspection 2017)

Equipment:

Freight elevator to the upper floor

Old, out-of-service refrigerated unit

Floor-level rainwater harvesting system

New double toilet on the ground floor

Parking:

The entire ground floor could be used for indoor parking (work to be done if this is the wish to create parking spaces).

Potential and use:

This historic market hall is ideal for commercial, artistic, or mixed use, or for a spacious loft/studio project. The upper floor can be converted into offices, a gallery, or living space.

Work to be planned:

Refreshing of facades and joinery

Upgrading or replacing the glazing

Possible adjustments to meet standards according to usage

Location and accessibility:

15 minutes from Morges, 30 minutes from Lausanne and 50 minutes from Geneva

The Morges–Apples–Bière regional train stop is a 5-minute walk away.

With the regional train, Morges is accessible in less than 25 minutes
