Property Description
Our ref- AI4712
This wonderful property is to be found at the end of a quiet lane on the outskirts of the village. As you travel down the lane, the mill stream of around 200m and the weir are to be enjoyed on your left and the lovely stonework of the former flour mill beckons you ahead. This really is an exquisite location bordering the River Charente
The former flour mill is set over three levels and retains the associated machinery and the two interior water wheels, the two exterior wheels require replacement. The property appears on the Carte de Cassini
The attached house is connected internally to the mill and may equally be accessed via a large terrace with wonderful views along the river. The house proposes living accommodation of 115m2 over two floors. Work is now required to bring the property up to modern standards, but there is potential here to create a unique and magnificent home
To the exterior, there is a parking area and a range of outbuildings and hangars, offering numerous possibilities and currently serving as garaging, storage and a chicken coop. The property is set on a total plot size of 15605m2 (around 3.85 acres). This comprises land and gardens immediately around the ensemble of buildings, a field of 8060m2 across the river and several parcels of woodland
The property is situated just a few moments by car from the village of Saint-Macoux, with its popular leisure lake. Other tourist attractions in the area include 'La Vallée des Singes' monkey park, 'Le Cormenier' rural life museum and the 'Futuroscope' theme park at Poitiers.
