A Timeless Estate in the Heart of Nivernais 55 hectares • 16 ha pond • Historic mill • Restored house • Old mill. Outbuildings Imagine waking up to the sound of birds, facing a mirror pond of 16 hectares, in a property where every stone tells several centuries of history… Nestled in a secret valley of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, this exceptional estate encompasses 55 hectares of everything nature lovers, hunters, and those seeking an authentic life could hope for: a historic mill with red brick facades reflecting in the calm waters of a pond, a fully restored house with all modern comforts, and a green setting where woods, meadows, and streams succeed one another infinitely. Ideal Location — Accessible, yet at the End of the World Just 9 km away, the Cercy-la-Tour train station allows you to reach Paris in 3 hours via the Lyon station. Decize, 17 km away, concentrates all shops and services. Here, isolation is a luxury, not a constraint. A Sanctuary for Nature and Hunting Lovers 55 hectares in one block — it’s a whole territory that opens up to you. An alternating landscape of century-old woods, open meadows, and wetlands, majestic oaks, and century-old chestnut trees punctuate the park with remarkable biodiversity. At the center, the 16-hectare pond fed by several streams — including the Cressonne — is a true haven for fishermen and lovers of wild nature. The old fishery, still operational, with its main basin and fish reservoirs, testifies to a nourishing tradition passed down through generations. The icing on the cake: an engineering study has revealed that the site has an estimated hydropower potential of 3 kWh per day — a real path to energy autonomy. The Buildings: Authenticity and Comfort at the Rendezvous The Main House — 109 m² Fully restored in 2009, it combines the charm of the old — lime walls, exposed beams, functional stone fireplace — with modern comforts: underfloor heating (with water/water heat pump), double insulation, equipped kitchen. It offers a bright living room, kitchen, a bedroom, and a shower room on the ground floor; upstairs, two additional bedrooms under the beams and a bathroom. A warm home, ready to welcome a family or guests. The Mill — The Jewel of the Estate - a bedroom It steals the show. Its red brick facades reflect in the pond it borders, creating a scene worthy of the most beautiful postcards of Burgundy. Three habitable levels, period octagonal tiles, a wood stove, a bedroom with a fireplace… and, at the top, a spectacular frame known as "à la Philibert Delorme," shaped like an upside-down ship hull — an architectural feat from the 16th century, extremely rare. The Outbuildings — Unlimited Potential The stone barn (200 m²), the old pigsty (45 m², 5 rooms of which 3 are already converted into a laundry room, food storage, office), the woodshed (30 m²)… so many raw spaces to convert according to your ambitions. Here, space is not lacking. This Estate is Meant to Be Lived In — and Exploited An exceptional primary or secondary residence, but also a true heritage tool with high potential. Here are some ideas among others: Premium cottage or tourist accommodation The mill and the house are ideally suited for high-end guest accommodations. The exceptional natural setting, the pond, the bucolic landscapes: everything is in place to attract clientele in search of authentic escape and total disconnection. Prestigious Event Venue Country weddings, corporate seminars, creative or spiritual retreats, private events… The site — with its monumental barn, outdoor spaces by the pond, and out-of-time atmosphere — offers a dream backdrop for unforgettable events. Swimming Pool — An Evidence The generous and well-exposed land is perfectly suited for the installation of a swimming pool that would complement the leisure offerings of the estate — for personal use as well as for tourist exploitation. Energy Autonomy The identified hydropower potential opens the door to green energy production on site. A differentiating, rare, and precious asset in a time that values autonomy and sustainability. Properties like this one are practically non-existent. Not simply because it is beautiful — which it undoubtedly is. But because it is whole: a territory, a history, a soul. It does not await transformation; it simply awaits the right project, and above all, the right people to give it a new life worthy of what it is.
