Located 30 minutes from Albi, on the banks of a river, this 340 m² former 15th century mill offers a living room, open-plan kitchen, dining room-living room, 3 bedrooms, shower room, toilet, unoccupied space, first floor for conversion, garage, bread oven, all set in over 5000 m² of wooded grounds.

You'll be delighted to recharge your batteries in this bucolic setting, far from the hustle and bustle of urban life, lulled by the murmur of the river and the superb waterfall.

You'll need to turn off the main road to reach the property.

The mill has 4 levels.
The 1st floor corresponds to the mill's former activity, with a main entrance hall (15 m²), toilets and a staircase leading to level 2 or 1st floor.
On the left is a large workshop (50 m²) opening onto the garage (58 m²).
To the right of the hall, a magnificent, almost renovated room (26 m²), available for any new installation project, overlooks the river. This communicates with the existing boiler room (26 sq.m.).

Take the staircase in the hall to reach the (2nd) second level, i.e. the first floor of the house. Of course, you'll also reach this level via the outside staircase.
The cosy original wooden entrance door opens onto the 27 m² living room, with its splendid authentic open fireplace. Lovers of beams and terracotta floor tiles are sure to fall under its spell.
To the right of the entrance door is a toilet and a small corridor (5 m²) with a storage area.
A door at the far end of the living room gives access to the main, bright living room today, the dining room-kitchen (37 m²), which opens onto a beautiful terrace with an unobstructed, panoramic view over the river. The sheltered summer kitchen, with barbecue and bread oven, will be a welcome addition to your summer evenings.
Back in the living room, the beautiful staircase leads to the 3rd floor sleeping areas.
To the left of the staircase is a large master suite (25 m²), once again dominated by stone and wood.
To the right is a large study (16 m²), which could be converted into a bedroom if required. Once again, a staircase in the same room leads to the third bedroom, or night space (20 m²), communicating with a final open space (35 m²) that can be converted to suit your needs.
Outside, a small stone outbuilding is at your disposal.

You'll discover this unique and authentic setting, and will undoubtedly enjoy strolling along the banks of the river around the mill, simply to relax, stroll or find inspiration.

The house has a slate roof (renovated in 2010 with insulation), stone construction and rendered facade. Heating is provided by an oil-fired boiler, complemented by a wood-burning stove coupled to the boiler. The kitchen is fuelled by propane gas (bottled). Hot water is supplied by the boiler. The house's water circuit is fed directly by tapping the underground spring 12 m below ground. The conventional water supply still exists and can be connected. Some of the woodwork is double-glazed. Independent sanitation.
The mill is equipped with an elevator from the first floor to the second floor. (Level 1 to 2). The entire living area of the mill has never been flooded. Only the banks have. Purists will be able to put a wheel back on the mill if they wish.

You and your little family will find in this property an unequalled tranquillity, a small piece of historical heritage.

Only 30 minutes from Albi and Rodez, 1h15 from Toulouse and its international airport, 90 minutes from the first ski slopes, 2h45 from the Mediterranean, 4h10 from the ocean, 2h55 from Spain.
