Question juridique clé
Whether the lease should be qualified as residential rather than commercial for extension purposes
Solution extraite
The contract was properly qualified as a residential lease; even if mixed use were assumed, the residential use was predominant.
Motifs extraits
The agreed destination of the premises had to be determined at conclusion of the contract. The tenant lived in the chalet and his brocante/breeding activities were secondary and described by him as a hobby; therefore Art. 272b CO limited the extension to four years.
