Spacious and light water mill dating from 1692 with front terrace overlooking a picturesque garden with trout stream in the heart of a small lively town with all amenities on the banks of the river in the Perigord Noir of the Dordogne.

The mill is on three floors and has been completely restored including rewiring, re-plumbing, new central heating, double glazed new windows and new insulation to make around 240 m2 of living space. 

The main entrance is on the raised ground floor from the street level through double wooden doors into an entrance hall off which to the right is a large living room with high ceiling, wood floor, original fireplace and two large west-facing windows over the mill stream (62m2).  

To the left of the hall is a utility room (9m2) and adjoining kitchen (7m2), a lobby (7m2), large bathroom with wc and two west-facing bedrooms (17m2, 19m2), all with wooden floors.    

A new set of ash wood stairs from the living room leads up to the 1st floor where there is a large open space painted white with windows on all four sides, exposed beams and new parquet floor (96m2). 

In the middle of the loft on the west side is a new shower room with large shower, wash basin and wc and marble tiled floor (10m2).

A second new set of stairs leads down to the lower ground floor where there is a further 100m2 of potential living space with very high ceilings. 

On the lower ground floor is a boiler room for oil-fired central heating, a central storage area still housing the original wc and shower room above the mill stream still flowing below and a large vaulted studio with four "bull's eye" windows and double doors to the garden, parking area and private driveway.

The gardens are mainly grassed with a variety of mature flowering and fruit trees and bushes running all the way down to the mill stream, full of trout, carp, perch, and cat fish... and where one can sit and admire the kingfishers or the many other visiting birds to the garden.

A superb family home or small B & B with lots of further potential  set in 2162 m2 of rural setting but in walking distance of all amenities and the beach on the nearby river Dordogne.
