The lessor may, at the end of a three-year period, in the forms provided for by article L. 145-9 and at least six months in advance, repossess residential premises rented as an accessory to business premises if they are not used for residential purposes. The repossession may only be exercised if, after a period of six months following the notice issued for this purpose, the premises are not being used for residential purposes.
However, repossession under the conditions indicated in the first paragraph may not be exercised on premises allocated for hotel or furnished rental use, or on premises used for hospital or teaching purposes.
Similarly, repossession may not be exercised where the tenant establishes that the deprivation of enjoyment of the residential premises causes a serious disturbance to the operation of the business or where the commercial premises and the residential premises form an indivisible whole.
In the event of a partial repossession as provided for in this article, the lease rent is reduced to take account of the areas removed without this repossession in itself constituting a significant change in the elements of the rental value mentioned in article L. 145-33.
