Luxury mills for sale Saint-Yon, France

A 12th-century mill with 2 hectares of grounds, a river and veteran trees, only 40 minutes from Paris, in the Chevreuse valley. A stately wooden gate provides access to the main driveway, sheltered from view, which leads to a bridge straddling the river. There stands the mill, which was refurbished in the 19th century, but the first vestiges of which go back to the 12th century. With three levels, it is topped with a flat-tile roof punctuated with skylights and shed dormer windows, while its exposed stone walls are cadenced by many different-sized windows with wooden shutters. Fitted with double-glazed windows, all the wooden window frames have been restored. In addition, the property has a pedestrian entrance, via a wooden gate, accessible from the street. To the south and east, the grounds extend over approximately 2 contiguous hectares, including a vast meadow and woodland interspersed with veteran trees. To the northeast is an ancient pavilion in need of restoration.
