Mill Montluçon (03)

Le Lys Bourbonnais, a specialist in mills and water rights, offers you: Mill with title and on-title of 215 m² (6 rooms), its miller's house gîte "Clef verte" 202 m² (8 rooms) in Combrailles (03/63) Eco-friendly renovations of buildings. Dam, pool, reserve and its sluices, abée, raw drop of 8 m, water chamber, mechanisms… Barn; small outbuildings. Wooded and lush site by 2 streams, on 3.8 hectares of meadows, woods, and a flowered park. Possibility of gîte or guest house activity. In the land of Combrailles still bourbonnaises, small streams make great mills. The stream that carries water from the south dam to the closed reserve of a shovel through fields has taken the name of the fortified house that overlooks this wild valley, wooded with a thousand species that thrive towards the sky or in the shade of small hills. This "Ruisseau de la Vallée" flows into its neighbouring stream meandering from west to east, "Riau de la Source", bathing the garden of the cottage dependent on the antique mill, which, with its large miller's house and barn, forms a picturesque ensemble typical of this region stirred by the eruptions of small volcanoes that have become harmless. The inscription of 1718 engraved on the granite stone of the mill's hall door certainly indicates an 18th-century building present on the Cassini map, but certain structures, like the abée of the reserve, carved in stone, or the beveled door linings, are evidence of the presence of an ancient mill much earlier. Moreover, alone and enjoying peaceful days without inconvenienced neighbours downstream by the stream's flow, the Moulin de l'Astre du Jour does not need to be regulated. Its existence suffices for its peaceful roll to grant itself the right of water, confirmed by an order in 2025. Dam, pool, sluice reservoirs, abée, raw drop of more than 8 m, coursier, wheel shaft (unfortunately without more wheel)… accessories of innate charm, or of a future wheel song, remain along this small tranquil valley surrounded by priories, churches (one with a twisted bell tower), old castles or more recent châteaux. The two parallel main residential buildings, the mill and the miller's house, have regained their charm thanks to recent renovations preserving original elements while also innovating with cutting-edge eco-friendly materials: in the mill: *mass heater prototype; in the miller's house: *geothermal energy 2024; steel radiators, internet or mobile control system (7-year warranty); everywhere: *PVC double-glazing window frames (golden oak style, small woods incorporated, brass locks and handles). This allows for a competitive DPE. Roofs: *mill late 2023 (recently insulated with wood wool); *house 2000s; *barn 2019. Sanitation: *mill: microstation 2006; *house: septic tank to be reviewed. The Moulin de l'Astre du Jour (south-west/north-east, about 215 m² usable): Ground level (south-west): between the reserve of the pool to the south, its towing path, and the mill, a flowered and paved courtyard welcomes pleasantly at the intermediate level of the building: * a long living room: 40.5 m², beams, terracotta, stone cladding and granite fireplace, with kitchen space (9 m², modular) _ leading, through *the entrance (8.5 m², miller's staircase down to the garden level) to * the old milling room (37.5 m²) above *the water chamber (drop, wheel shaft); the handcrafted oak staircase in the living room leads to the *convertible attics (50 m² on the ground + 46 m² next to the mill) under a roof finished in 2023 with small flat tiles from Doyet. Opposite, in the west lean-to: *clearing (3.5 m²), *bedroom 11 m²; *shower room with toilet (4 m²). Garden level (between house and mill): * 3 large rooms to finish arranging, including one of 31 m² + another of 16 m² (triple glazing window frames) and the mechanisms room with gears (27.5 m²); *water chamber in the east gable (10 m²); *boiler room 2020 (18 m²): prototype of an autonomous wood mass stove (for winter, with boiler); summer heating thermally by solar panels supplying the hot water tank.
