luxury mill for sale Saint-Cyr-sous-Dourdan, France

A renovated miller’s home and his 13th century mill awaiting restoration in the midst of the Upper Chevreuse Valley. Nestling in a verdant setting, this property borders a protected natural area near to the banks of the river Yvette. A set of wrought iron gates gives a glimpse from the street of a first, abundantly wooded garden and a vast paved courtyard, leading to the main house, “the miller’s home”, restored several years ago. Adjoining the latter is the old mill, dating from the 13th century. Following the French Revolution, this ordinary flour mill belonging to the Vaugien seigneury was used for grain, then hemp and tanbark before, finally, being rebuilt by the Cordeliers-de-Chevreuse monks using stone from the Ile-de-France chateaux. A second, west-facing garden behind the buildings, composed of flower beds and a lawn, can be directly reached from the living room. A second entrance on the north side makes it possible to park cars at a distance from the main entrance. An outbuilding, bordering the south side of the paved courtyard and delimiting the property, belongs to the neighbours.
