luxury mill with reception room for sale Île De France, France

A mill built between the 13th and 19th centuries, with a holiday cottage and outbuildings with potential to be converted, in the Chevreuse Valley. This former mill standing on the banks of the River Yvette, behind the walls of a tree-filled, more than 3,200-m² garden, can be reached from a quiet street. The property is historically linked to the neighbouring chateau and brings together several constructions erected between the 13th and 19th centuries. Today, it boasts more than 620 m² of living space spread over fifteen rooms and two houses. The main residence, which is a former canon foundry, was built around 1840 for the artillerymen in Versailles. It spreads over approximately 340 m². Its facades possess wide openings onto the garden, courtyard and outbuildings. The four-storey building includes a fast reception room on the ground floor, topped by a half-level on a mezzanine, as well as six bedrooms. Behind the facade covered in Virginia creeper, the old, three-storey, 18th-century miller’s house, which is now a holiday cottage, boasts 240 m² of living space. It contains ten rooms, including six bedrooms, and has a separate entrance. The outbuildings total a surface of more than 300 m²: to the north there are the restored walls of the approximately 80-m² former medieval mill, while to the east there is a vast, almost 230-m² barn. The building has a convertible loft with a surface as large as the barn’s ground floor. The property is completed by the former stables which have been converted into a 30-m² self-contained studio apartment.
