luxury mills for sale Sarthe, France

In the Perche region, a 19th-century mill on over 8 hectares. In the valley, a small road winds its way to the property. Set back, past a coded entry gate, an alley lined with plane trees leads to an initial enclosure framed by brick pillars, which opens onto a closed garden arranged in front of the mill. A parking area is surrounded by hedges. Hidden behind the vegetation, a newly constructed bridge spans a private arm of the river and leads to a large grassy island dotted with poplars. At the back, meadows punctuated by trees and crossed by several arms of water lead to a second bridge, then to two ponds. Recently renovated, the main house features a rendered facade with a cornice, corner chains, and stone surrounds made of tuffeau. Raised over three levels, with converted attics, the whole is rhythmically structured with six bays. The high slate roof is pierced with dormer windows. Leaning against and oriented to the west, a guest house or gîte is raised over two levels. On the ground floor of the mill, the reception rooms are spacious. Twelve bedrooms and almost as many shower rooms with toilets are spread across the floors. The building also includes a new cinema room and a space of over 100 m² in the attics, equipped with hi-fi and video systems.This description has been automatically translated from French.

In the Sarthe valley, near Sablé, an old mill with water rights on nearly 1 hectare. From the village, a street then a path descends toward the mill, bordered by its canal and the stream, beyond which are meadows surrounded by trees. While the mill's location is very old, the current building dates from the first half of the 19th century. An exclusive fishing right is attached to the property. The entrance is marked by a white-painted wooden gate that opens onto a paved courtyard, with the living quarters on one side and a garden and pool on the other. A walkway over the canal allows access to the sluices. Renovated, the mill consists of two buildings. The main wing, square in shape, is raised over two stories. The facades are plastered to reveal the stone and are pierced with openings, some of which are semi-circular with brick framing. An open loggia to the west overlooks the courtyard and the river. The gabled roof of tiles is topped with two Jacobin dormers. Another wing, rectangular, is raised over one level and is distinguished by its slate roofing.This description has been automatically translated from French.
