Watermill and two houses. Beautiful property on 5 hectares at the end of a cul-de-sac, on the water's edge.

Absolute tranquility. No identified nuisances.

10 kilometers from two towns.

The property includes two houses, one with an attached garage/workshop, a barn, a lean-to, and the three-story mill.

It still has all its original equipment: nothing has been touched since it ceased grinding. Garden, 3.2 hectares of open meadows.

The possibilities for various activities and uses are:
Primary residence, Gîtes/bed and breakfast, Permaculture, small-scale livestock farming, beekeeping, horses, dog breeding, Agrivoltaic project.

A significant detail:
On an iconic river, this former mill can no longer be used for hydroelectric power generation: a large notch exists in the center of the heavily eroded weir… Unless someone knowledgeable about the intricacies of the administrative process takes up the challenge?
They will obviously need to be patient, as the administrative authorities, currently very hostile to mills, will do everything they can to oppose its restoration.
The project can be studied and put on hold because, with an average monthly flow of 6 m³/s and a drop of approximately 1.80 m, the potential justifies restarting the mill for the production of clean, water-free energy. As a precaution, it is simply necessary, initially, to reinforce the two anchors of the weir on the right and left banks to prevent further erosion from carrying away the stones one by one. In any case, this option does not detract from the site's appeal or its other potential benefits.

Our opinion: Excellent value for money
