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.

Forty-five minutes from Paris Montparnasse and four kilometers from Thoiry, this former 15th-century mill is an exceptional dream property. Three fully renovated buildings, nearly 575sqm of useful space, two and a half hectares of parkland crossed by a stream feeding a pond, a swimming pool, horse stables, and absolute tranquility less than an hour from the capital, with no compromise on comfort or charm. This estate is for those who refuse to choose between quality countryside living and proximity to Paris. It is suitable both for a large family in a main residence and for a high-end secondary residence project, guest rooms, seminars, or equestrian activities. The renovation of the mill has preserved the authenticity of the stone and exposed beams while providing true contemporary comfort. On the ground floor, a bright dining kitchen of over 35 sqm precedes a double living room of nearly 68 sqm, with a beautiful stone fireplace and views of the original water mill mechanism. Upstairs, four bedrooms, a bathroom, and two shower rooms offer all the necessary comforts for a large family. In the basement, a billiard room, wine cellar, laundry room, and boiler room complete the ensemble. Facing the mill, the fully converted old sheepfold constitutes a complete and independent house on its own. The ground floor offers an open equipped kitchen, a living room with pellet stove, a master bedroom with dressing room and bathroom. Upstairs, accessible from an open mezzanine overlooking the living room, are two bedrooms, a playroom that could serve as an additional bedroom, a home office area, and a shower room with sauna. With totally independent access, two additional bedrooms each have their own private shower room. Independent and flooded with light thanks to its characteristic glass roof, the artist’s studio is invariably a visitor favorite. A large bedroom with shower on the ground floor, a mezzanine bedroom, and a bright space that is equally suitable for creative work, telecommuting, hosting guests, or rental use. The park is the estate’s other great asset. Two and a half hectares of contiguous land, crossed by a stream that continuously feeds a pond regulated by its sluice gates and spillways. The 10 x 5 meter swimming pool benefits fully from the sunshine, while the two horse stables with a shed for van demonstrate an equestrian vocation that surrounding meadows and paths make entirely natural. The vegetable garden with its greenhouse, fruit trees, meadow, and woodland at the back of the property complete a set of rare generosity, out of time and with no visible neighbors. The layout of the buildings, with their multiple independent accesses, naturally lends itself to charming guest rooms and gîtes, seminars and wellness retreats, or an equestrian activity. Less than an hour from Paris, in a highly sought-after Yvelines sector, the potential for appreciation is real.

Only 10 minutes from Montreuil-sur-Mer, an authentic, 19th-century flour mill, with a manor house and many outbuildings.. This Picardy mill, standing in green pastureland, emerges into sight after crossing a small bridge over the waterway running past the edifice and heading up a drive bordered by meadows. The main courtyard can be reached through a wrought-iron gate. The property is made up of the former mill building, an adjoining manor house, as well as extensive outbuildings that form a second courtyard to the rear. A renovated pavilion standing opposite opens onto the garden which stretches down to the river. The current mill was preceded by other older ones, which belonged to the lords of the realm, who took part in the crusades and, for some of them, perished at the battle of Agincourt. Their castle, which has since disappeared, was located in the meadows on the other side of the mill race, behind the mill building. All that remains of it is the castle mound where it was built. Though the mill was probably out of use during the French Revolution, there are traces of its activity during the 19th century, as recounted in the “Annuaire du Pas-de-Calais” directory dated 1867, then in a newspaper published in 1883, in which the miller posted an advert for an “able mill caretaker”. In 1890, the mill burned down but was rebuilt that same year. The current manor house dates from that time. In 1933, the technological advances of the time saw the water wheel replaced by a turbine. The mill remained in activity until 31st March 2024.

In the scenic Vienne region, in the centre of grounds crossed by a river, a traditional farmhouse with full French ownership rights and two guest houses . The property can be accessed via two entrances, the first providing direct access to the grounds and the second to the farmhouse via a courtyard, where a covered area has been created with space for two cars. A caretaker's cottage is located a few meters from the main entrance. The stone farmhouse has a flat-tiled roof. Its two facades are dotted with windows, some with French windows, which are echoes of each another. In the grounds, a first guest house can be accessed via the garden gate and by going past the front of the farmhouse, which is just a few metres away. Built of exposed stone with a tiled roof like the farmhouse, it faces the mill and a reservoir formed by the water from the millstream. The mill, set opposite these first two dwellings is the focal point of the whole complex. The mill's history can be traced back to the 17th century, when its dykes were built. Destroyed by a fire in 1790, it was rebuilt in 1800 and still has water rights to this day. Its drop height is around 1.8 m. It should be noted that all the dykes have been bricked up and raised to protect the buildings from possible winter flooding. Finally, a second guest house has been built on the first island and is linked to the shore by a small bridge and accessed by a stone staircase. Another bridge leads to a second, even larger island.

A 17th-century mill, with water rights, on two hectares of grounds including one kilometre of riverbanks, nestled within the Green Périgord region of Dordogne. At the end of a tarmacked lane that winds its way up a gentle slope and through a forest of chestnut trees, the hamlet includes the miller’s house, a barn and a stately mill typical of the 17th century, built on a granite rock from the Jurassic period, and once under the purview of the fiefdom of Jaubert de Nanthiat. The site’s unspoilt and beautiful natural environment, perched on the banks of the Isle River, provides opportunities to observe otters, herons and kingfishers from it many patios, while, once past the property’s entrance and at the end of a parking area, the mill's large water wheel, four metres in diameter, and its locks leave a lasting impression. As for the grounds, of approximately 2 hectares and planted with many trees, it runs alongside private riverbanks for more than a kilometre, while the mill, with its beaches of golden sand, acts like a balcony over the river. Lastly, a garage and a wooden shed, appearing on the land registry and used for storage and as a painter’s studio, respectively, could easily be converted for other purposes.

Appearing as though it was built up against the bridge itself, the edifice unfurls its thick walls above the Loing River all the way to a small private island on which the mill’s east gable end was constructed.

In Burgundy, in a Natura 2000 environment, on 6.5 hectares of land, a manor from the 18th century, a long house from the 19th century, outbuildings, and a swimming pool. Once past a first white gate adorned with volutes, then a second one, at the end of an alley lined with trees and a stone bridge crossing the river, the manor and the various buildings reveal themselves. The facades, pierced with straight or ogival openings, are constructed of jointed rubble, with stone framing around the openings and corner chains. The roofs, either gabled or hipped, are mostly covered with flat tiles. A gravel path runs along a lawn area decorated with trimmed yews, before moving away towards a part of the park planted with numerous trees and integrating an orchard, a vegetable garden, as well as a garden located slightly below. A 9 m x 4 m swimming pool is hidden from view by vegetation, next to a wooden guinguette with an open porch. The facades of the main residence, divided into several sections, are pierced with predominantly mullioned openings and present a simple modeling. A tower contains the main vestibule and a staircase, while an extension with a slate roof serves as a technical room for the swimming pool. At the corner of the manor, the long house, built according to a rectangular plan, has multiple openings and is extended by a terrace on each side, as well as a shed at one end. A pétanque court sheltered by a row of trees is also present. An offset barn, with a surface area of 247 m², includes a living space to be renovated at one of its ends.

A former mill to be renovated, with a guest’s house, meadows, parkland and a pond in more than 5 hectares of grounds, in the Charolais area in Burgundy.. The property can be reached via three separate entrances from the country road or communal lane that run alongside it. At the entrance, a guests’ house stands before the former mill, which is the main dwelling, located on the banks of the stream. The outbuildings, nestled among the foliage away from view of the other edifices, complete the property. The land, through which a stream runs, is spread over more than 5 hectares around the buildings and is made up of a former vegetable garden, undergrowth, a pond and meadows. The mill has stood here for some time. In bygone days, it was surrounded by vast ponds, one upstream and one downstream, whose presence was recorded in the 19th century on the Napoleonic land registry. Its vocation initially predisposed it as a public place and point of passage, though its layout and architecture developed over time up to the 1960s, when it underwent its most recent restoration, transforming it into a family home and leisure residence.

An entirely renovated 17th-century mill, with its swimming pool and outbuildings on 7,500-m² grounds, to the north of the Luberon Mountains. Thanks to its environment and impeccable preservation, the property enjoys a verdant setting where a river still supplies water to the mill. From a secondary B road, a lane winds its way through a forest of live oaks, before reaching the mill, built in a clearing at the top of a small hill and accessible via a carriage entrance at the end of a gravel drive. Shielded by a curtain of vegetation, a peaceful river borders one side of the property’s fertile grounds, while, a little further on, a wooden pedestrian gate, located at the top of a flight of stone steps and framed by two cypresses, opens on to the swimming pool area, concealed from view by a pointed stone building on one side and a hedge on the other. In addition, behind the carriage entrance, three buildings, one of which is placed at a right angle, are grouped around a central cobblestone courtyard, which is closed off on one side by a low stone wall overlooking the grounds. Topped with barrel tile roofs, the one crowning the main dwelling is highlighted by a double genoise cornice.

In Normandy, 1 hour and 10 minutes from Paris, in a landscaped and enclosed garden, an old mill transformed into a family home, with outbuildings and a millstream. The mill occupies the center of a garden of approximately 7000 m², elevated compared to the river. Mostly enclosed by stone walls or solid grids on low walls, punctuated by pillars, it is protected by dense vegetation and its millstream on the remaining part. Access is via a small communal road, which forms a bridge over the watercourse. From a large wrought iron gate, a gravel path distributes access to the various buildings. Immediately on one side, there is a residential house of about 60 m², with half-timbered walls and a gabled roof of flat tiles. A wing returning at right angles includes three garages, one of which is closed. The main dwelling stands a little further away. It develops around 500 m² with eight bedrooms and three bathrooms. The central body, topped with a slate gabled roof, is raised six levels, including one basement level. Under an imposing Virginia creeper, the façade in brick, facing southeast, features three slightly arched openings on each floor. Protected by white shutters, they are complemented by pierced wrought iron railings. Two wings extend the building. The first, on two levels, is built of millstone grit, under a Mansard roof. The second, raised three levels including one in the attic, forms a slight curve. At the end of the driveway, there are two outbuildings and a greenhouse. At the back of the main building, once the millstream is crossed by one of the wooden footbridges, the northwest façade exposes its monumental foundations, which root in the clear, flowing water. Attached to the central body, above the water, an original extension houses the mill's machinery. It is topped by vast terraces accessible from inside the dwelling. The garden is lush and extends on the other side of the road, where a sluice system and a gazebo are installed on two islets.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In the Breton countryside, 30 minutes from the coast, a 19th-century mill and its reception hall, set in over 5 hectares of meadows and woodlands. Built of stone, the mill is located in the hollow of a wooded valley, by a stream that structures its organization. Accessible via a small communal paved road that descends into the valley, access is through a small drivable bridge, equipped with a painted wooden barrier, followed by a turning area. A dependency appears first, recognizable by its wide arched wooden door with panels, painted blue, framed by dressed stone. The entrance is preceded by a flight of steps made of patinated terracotta tiles, adorned with a wall lantern. The main building, raised with two levels under a slate roof with three dormers featuring triangular pediments, has facades made of rubble and simple openings. The millrace and the stream, still observable in the immediate vicinity, testify to its original purpose. The surroundings combine lawns, shrub beds, and tall trees (oaks, beeches, and sequoias), which open onto meadows and woods. Good-sized parking areas have been developed. Formerly proposed for event organization, the site retains suitable structures — reception hall, professional kitchen, and restrooms — ready to be reused or transformed (habitable area, indoor pool).This description has been automatically translated from French.

A unique, 18th-century mill, with a fully restored house, outbuildings, more than 55 hectares of grounds and a 16-hectare fishing lake, in the countryside of the former Nivernais province. The property stretches over 55 hectares on either side of a vast, approximately 16-hectare lake through which flows the River Cressonne. This water mirror forms the natural crossroads of the estate, around which the different buildings are set. A drive winds through the grounds up to a two-storey, fully restored manor house with a cellar. The limewash rendered façades are dotted with regularly shaped windows on either side of an elegant south facing entrance that can be reached via a central, double-flighted set of stone steps. To the north, the main entrance onto the garden level stands opposite the former pigsty, a witness to the estate’s rural past. The edifice is topped by a sober, dark, slate roof. A former barn stands slightly set back to the northwest. The mill building stands below the house, to the south. Its red brick façades reflect in the water of the lake on whose shores it stands. It was constructed as a grain mill and previously figured among the Nièvre area’s many water-powered buildings, whose activity was gradually abandoned with the rise of industrialisation. Its distinctive feature is its roof frame like an upturned ship’s hull. The structure is made up of light pieces of flat wood assembled using an ingenious wedge system and did not require the use of large lifting machines. It is covered with small, flat terracotta tiles that are typical of the region. This type of roof frame, known in France as a ‘Philibert Delorme’ roof frame after the architect whose technique became widespread in the 16th century, is directly inspired by the shape of a ship’s hull and enabled the entirety of the attic space to be used for storage of commodities. The waterwheel is no longer in place but it is still possible to see the tailrace and the where the water previously passed.

Just steps away from the historic center of Guingamp, along the Trieux, a 16th-century mill with outbuildings on nearly 1 hectare. The property is revealed at the end of an access road that crosses the Trieux via a stone bridge. An ironwork gate, framed by granite pillars, marks the entrance. The mill, situated by the water, is set in a wooded environment.The main building is constructed of granite rubble, with an irregular appearance and stone framing for the openings. The gables are exposed and show homogeneous masonry. The openings, of various dimensions, are arranged functionally, with some narrow, vertical windows. The slate roof is gabled, with a marked slope. It features roof windows and a larger glass frame integrated into the slope. Two chimney stacks emerge from the ridge. The eaves are made of stone, and the roof overhang is limited. At the foot of the wall, a masonry structure, associated with a wooden device, signifies part of the old hydraulic system. Nearby, a paved passage and a gravel area organize the immediate surroundings. The joinery, made of painted wood, consists of glazed doors with a solid base and small-paned windows. Some openings are in a lowered arch. A circular stone opening, formed from a monolithic frame, is pierced in one of the gables.A narrow gravel courtyard connects the mill to its two outbuildings. The first building, elongated in plan, is covered with a gabled slate roof. The second, built with the same materials, is two stories high in the attic and features roof windows. The layout revolves around a central tarmacked space accessible from the entrance.Upstream, the park, partially adjoining that of the Château des Salles, extends into a large lawn dotted with isolated trees and groves. It is bordered by rows of tall trees and structured by vegetative boundaries. Wooden and stone fence elements delineate certain parts.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A house with a 16th-century mill with full ownership rights and outbuildings, in 5-hectare grounds, in the brightness of the Charente area as described by writer Jacques Chardonne. The buildings are set in a U-shape around a courtyard open to the south. The mill race to the west flows past a building next to a covered area and crosses through the courtyard before passing below the western end of the two-storey main building to the north of the courtyard. To the east, the same building is linked via a carriage gate and a dressed stone pedestrian gate to other outbuildings set perpendicularly. The buildings, made of rubble stone with window and door frames built in locally sourced ashlar, are topped with gently sloped terracotta tiled roofs. The western buildings are located on an island formed by the mill race and the river a little further away.
