Description
This 18th-century mill is beautifully situated. Situated at the end of a one-kilometre unmade road, in a green setting, it has a beautiful area around the mill pond and more than 7 hectares of adjoining land. The property covers both banks upstream and downstream of the mill itself.
The mill, which has water rights, produces 18 kW of hydroelectric power and generates a return of €8,000 to €10,000 a year.
The mill has recently been carefully renovated using quality materials. It boasts a magnificent kitchen and five bedrooms. The house has underfloor heating on the ground floor.
The mill has been deliberately renovated with its artisanal and industrial vocation in mind.
The property has two terraces, one to the North and the other to the South.
You enter the mill via a large living room with bar, dining room and kitchen. On the same level is an ensuite bedroom, a dressing room, a storage area and a toilet.
The first floor comprises four bedrooms, one of which is ensuite, a toilet, a bathroom and a utility room.
The basement is fully paved and spans around 110 m². It houses the machinery and offers storage space.
The outbuildings house a semi-covered terrace (25 m²) with a view over the river, an annex that could be used as a gîte for 2/3 people plus a large room that could be used for a large dinner party with a view over the river. Under the outbuildings are a garage, a workshop and a vaulted cellar.
Scattered around the property are a number of other curiosities. The source of the spring can be discovered just a few metres from the mill. Further on, a 25 m² bread oven is operational. A gazebo nestles in the woods. A little further on, an outbuilding containing a fish hatchery can be seen. Further on, a wooden observation post offers a commanding view of the river.
The property's outbuildings offer the possibility of self-catering accommodation.
There is a sandy beach in the immediate vicinity of the mill.
There is also a spring on the property.
Everything has been meticulously maintained and there is no need for any major works. The slate roof has recently been redone and the building is sound and damp-free.
The woodland/grassland area could be used for animals. There is an enclosed vegetable garden with a greenhouse, as well as a wood-cutting area with electricity.
The mill could be a starting point for tourist destinations such as Belcastel, Rodez, Conques or Villefranche de Rouergue. In addition, the property is crossed by a GR (long-distance footpath) along the banks of the River Aveyron and could be used by pilgrims.
