DESCRIPTION
This remarkable property, comprising an old water mill
that serves as the main residence, a holiday lodge for renting
during the tourist season, and several farm outbuildings, is an
exceptional example of the rural heritage of the region.
The estate
is located 10 km from Lake Pareloup, a popular tourist centre, and
30 km from Rodez, the administrative centre of Aveyron.
Nestled in
3 hectares of greenery in an idyllic setting and with no close
neighbours, the hamlet occupies both banks of a stream that
traverses the property.
The mill and all accompanying buildings
have been restored with careful thought to decoration and refined
finishings using ecological materials of high quality.
Having
preserved all elements of its original character, the mill dating
from 1820 has earned a label from La Fondation du Patrimoine.
The
property presents a unique opportunity for amateurs of old rural
buildings, who wish to install or develop a professional, artistic
or liberal activity (art or craft workshops, exhibition spaces,
social gatherings, professional spaces).
The 3 hectares of land has
been developed into a landscaped park along the stream and around
the buildings.
A year-round flower garden has been created around
the buildings there are also vegetable gardens and two orchards
with more than twenty fruit trees (apple, pear, peach, cherry,
etc.).
Part of the property is woodland and requires very little
maintenance.
In addition to the main residence (230 m²), the estate
includes a holiday lodge of almost 90 m² (rated 3 stars) that
accommodates up to 5 people, an exceptional barn of 400 m², a large
carport for two vehicles, a cellar, a closed garage for two cars,
two greenhouses, a restored and funcional traditional bread oven,
and a covered terrace accessible from the living room of the main
residence.
The main residence is on 3 levels: Ground floor: a large
entrance space, a laundry space contiguous with a large workshop
and a small exhibition room displaying original components of the
mill.
First floor: a large living room, luminous with its numerous
openings (including 2 French windows, one opening onto a covered
terrace, ideal for summer meals, and the other to the back of the
house), a fully equipped kitchen opening onto the living room, with
a beautiful terra-cota austrian wood stove.
On the same level are
two bedrooms, a bathroom, and separate WC.
Top floor: an
exceptional open space serving as a library, a large bedroom and a
bathroom with WC.
The library can be divided to create an
additional bedroom.
A pleasant mediterranean courtyard serving the
Lodge and all outbuildings is located on the opposite bank of the
stream and can be accessed by a quaint metal bridge.
The Lodge:
Recently renovated from an old barn, the lodge is completely
independent of the main residence.
It comprises a splendid living
room and an open kitchen facing onto a small enclosed garden
terrace, two bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate toilet and a large
closet.
This accommodation is ideal for hostelry or for
entertaining family and friends.
A large carport and cellar are
located under the Lodge.
Two small greenhouses, transformed from
old pigsties and covered with a transparent roof, are ideal for
horticulture enthusiasts.
(They may also be adapted for other
purposes.) The Large Barn has two levels, each 210 m² in surface.
On the ground level, the old stables preserve their original charm.
Sufficient under-beam height allows for this space to be developed
for diverse uses.
On the first level, the barn, with its
cathedral-like frame is breath-taking and has exceptional
acoustics.
It can be readily adapted as a large reception space for
various events (weddings, seminars, exhibitions, concerts), or as a
workshop for artistic or professional use.
An application for an
Urban Certificate is in progress.
A covered garage, which can
accommodate two vehicles is attached to the barn.
A semi-covered
bread oven, recently restored, completes the courtyard and can
serve as an outdoor space for receptions.
A parking space,
sufficient for about ten vehicles, is conveniently located nearby.
A virtual tour and indoor plans available upon request.
Technical
details: The Mill and the Lodge are equipped with solar panels for
domestic hot water.

consists of 10cm of duck feathers for the roof and 5cm of hemp-lime
coating on the inside walls.
For the Lodge, there is 30cm of hemp
wool for the roof and 10cm of hemp-lime coating on the walls,
making the residences healthy and free of humidity.

the two residential buildings have double glazing with wooden
frames.
Heating of both residences is provided by geothermal heat
pumps (underfloor heating for the Lodge).
In addition, the living
rooms of the main house and the lodge are equipped with a wood
stove.

good condition with renovation dating from 2007-2013.

property is not connected to the public water network but a source
(with a 6,000L tank) and a borehole give self-sufficiency in
drinking water (analyzed regularly).
Two additional rainwater tanks
(7,000L and 3,000L) are available for irrigation of the garden and
