Mill Cosne-Cours-sur-Loire - 5 bedrooms - 400m²

With its harmonious, symmetrical facade of alternating brick and Burgundy stone, and its Mansard roof embellished with two-tone dormer windows, this majestic mill dating from 1750 used to run the village chateau, which for many years belonged to a prominent Nivernais family. Built over a cellar and stables, it was restored in 2008. Today it offers almost 300 m² of comfort and light. All the charm of the countryside, yet in a village with all amenities (health centre, secondary school, etc.) less than 2 hours from Paris (close to the SNCF train station and motorway).
