17th-century mill in southern Touraine

ESPACES ATYPIQUES EXCLUSIVE LISTING

Nestled in a charming village in southern Touraine, this mill offers 427 sqm of living space set within nearly 3 hectares of land.

This watermill, featuring an elegant 17th-century square tower and later extended during the 20th century, has in recent years been divided between a professional area comprising guest accommodation and a reception venue, and a comfortable private residence. A parking area provides access to the rear of the property. The living quarters can be reached via footbridges crossing the millrace or through the terraces overlooking the garden and swimming pool.

The 3-hectare parkland is wooded and enhanced by a pond and its stream. The watercourse divides into two branches: one follows its natural course through the grounds, while the other feeds the millrace that once powered the mill’s waterwheel.

A spacious first living room features a fireplace, beautiful exposed beams, and the original mechanism of the mill wheel. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms and two large bathrooms with showers provide all modern comforts. On the ground floor, a bedroom with its own en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe allows for convenient single-level living. A large solid oak kitchen completes this section of the property.

The second wing features a reception room with a cathedral ceiling and exposed timber framework. Large picture windows open onto a terrace sheltered beneath a magnificent weeping willow. A cosy lounge with a tuffeau stone fireplace further enhances the space. Upstairs, three guest bedrooms, each with their own en-suite shower room and private facilities, are ideally suited for a bed-and-breakfast activity.

The beautifully maintained grounds of nearly 3 hectares, together with the large heated swimming pool, offer excellent potential for hosting events or simply enjoying nature with family, accompanied by the soothing sound of flowing water and the peaceful atmosphere of the setting.

The property is located 35 minutes from the centre of Tours and 30 minutes from the TGV high-speed rail station.

Situated in the heart of Touraine, renowned for its castles, and only 20 minutes from the A10 motorway, this residence provides easy access to the region’s main attractions as well as to major cities.
