There are homes that hold their soul from those who have inhabited them, lived in them, wrote and received in them. This one has an undeniable extra soul, because before being a manor, it was a mill. Its traces are found as early as 1673, then as a back-fief of the lords of Chevreuse.
In 1930, Gustave Quinson, a theatre man, dismantled the overshot wheel to make the staircase we climb today, added a tower to his new home, and invited the greatest names of the Parisian scene from Sacha Guitry to Mistinguett. From this double history, the property has retained everything: water, soul, and the taste for receiving. Three centuries later, the water still flows, and here one experiences this rare thing: being out of time just minutes from Paris.

Surrounded by water and vegetation, placed on two hectares traversed by several ponds, the manor is a true haven of peace, despite its neighboring building. People come here for relaxation, for the light on the water, for strolling along the alleys, the fruit trees, and the vegetable garden, just a few minutes from the RER and the Saclay plateau, but a thousand leagues from their hustle and bustle.

From the cellar to the attic, the house is visited like going back in time. The entrance hall on the ground floor, decorated with its period staircase, opens onto a cathedral lounge with its magnificent marble fireplace, a dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a laundry room. This level gives access to two pleasant terraces where you can be lulled by the sound of water and the rays of the sun. In the upper floors, there are, along the landings, seven bedrooms, several bathrooms and water rooms, and a balcony on the second floor, surrounding the tower, to enjoy the park and ponds from another angle. The garden level, facing the pool, includes a gym with sauna, an office, a music and cinema studio, a chapel, and large storage spaces. A remnant of the original mill remains in the cellars, alongside a beautiful wine cellar.

The garden extends this green theatre: basins and statues, two terraces, a heated pool, several water features. Two annexes complete the ensemble: an independent workshop-office facing the pond, and a self-contained bungalow with its bedroom, kitchenette, and shower room, offering various uses, from remote working to hosting guests. A double garage and garden sheds complete this single-tenant property.

The land is set on two registered plots, totaling two hectares of land, within the Regional Natural Park of the High Valley of Chevreuse. Five minutes from Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse train station (RER B), fifteen minutes from the Saclay plateau and its major institutions, thirty minutes from Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the Massy-Palaiseau TGV station opening onto the Atlantic: the Manor combines the landscape seclusion of a water domain with the immediate proximity of Paris.
