A renovated former water mill built in the 14th century, with outbuildings, in the Loir Valley, near to Chartre-sur-le-Loir, with 6 hectares of wooded meadows. This property is tucked away in the countryside, in a wild but peaceful valley through which a small road winds. Set back from the road, after the entrance gate, a lane crosses a bridge under which a first category fishing stream flows. Behind thick vegetation, the southern gable end of the residence comes into view, as well as a large patio opening out from a lounge. A stream runs alongside the patio. The main house can be reached via the western side through a courtyard around which all the buildings stand. The two-storey watermill has been restored using local materials. The L-shaped building has a slate roof and walls that are made of exposed rubble stone, rendered with limewash on certain sections.
The door and window frames are made of tuffeau stone or old local bricks. Double glazed wood or aluminium windows and doors make up the openings. On one side of the main house, a former bakehouse is made up of two rooms and a passage between these two buildings leads to a track heading towards the meadows. There is a large patio at the rear of the mill facing the wooden waterwheel. After the waterwheel, the mill race leads towards the tree-filled grounds dotted with wooden fences from which views of the surrounding woodland and meadows can be enjoyed. On one side of the outbuilding, the mill race passes by the foot of a wooden barn.
