Description

AN EXCEPTIONAL RESTORATION for this truly charming Water Mill, which is slightly hidden in a peaceful valley, only three minutes from an attractive market town which offers all the necessary immenities. Situated one hour from the ski slopes of the Pyrénées and one hour from the Atlantic Coast, around Biarritz. Just 10 minutes north east of Pau. Pau airport 15 minutes; Tarbes / Lourdes 20 minutes; Toulouse airport 90 minutes.
The Atlantic Coast, around Biarritz, is one hours drive west and the Pyrenean ski slopes are one hours drive south.

THE WATER MILL (Moulin) has been EXCEPTIONALLY RESTORED and practically reconstructed in 1989, with absolute attention to retaining its original charm and character.
During the restoration, the property has been entirely RE-ROOFED, RE-PLUMBED, RE-WIRED, and FULLY INSULATED.
It further benefits from GAS CENTRAL HEATING, a NEW SEPTIC TANK, NEW DOUBLE-GLAZED HARDWOOD WINDOWS and RECLAIMED PERIOD INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL DOORS. The Water Mill is accessed via its own private driveway leading over a small private bridge into the grounds.
The estate includes:-
THE WATER MILL measuring 200m2
THE LODGE HOUSE measuring 65m2
THE TOWER measuring100m2

The WATER MILL
Ground Floor
The main entrance leads into the
RECEPTION HALL with the GUEST WASHROOM, and a unique stone spiral staircase leading to the first floor.
Opposite the main entrance are double reclaimed period doors leading into the
SITTING ROOM with a stunning reclaimed stone fire-place, attractive period terra cotta and stone floor. The window over-looks the lake and there is a door leading into the grounds. Leading on from the salon is the library to the left and the dining room to the right.
LIBRARY with double sliding doors which open onto the side of the canal bank where the rowing boat is moored.
DINING ROOM with east facing window and full height patio doors which lead outside onto the covered verandah which makes a shady pavilion for outside dining over-looking the lake.
The KITCHEN is situated next to the dining room and has been comprehensively fitted with hand-built wall and base units with a built-in oven, hob and extractor hood. Leading through from the kitchen is a large UTILITY ROOM, a REAR LOBBY and a WINE 'CAVE’.
The rear door leads onto the covered part of the driveway next to the Tower.
FIRST FLOOR
The MAIN BEDROOM SUITE is accessed via the stone spiral staircase. The landing is well-lit with double aspect windows overlooking the lake and gardens to the rear and the small canal to the front of the property. On the landing are two useful built-in wardrobes and a separate wc.
The main bedroom has French doors leading onto a small balcony over-looking the lake and lawns.
The EN-SUITE BATHROOM has a large corner bath, a large shower cubicle, wash hand basin, bidet and a hand-made integrated dressing table.

THE TOWER
The Tower has two floors and is currently used as a workshop and storage area, but could be simply converted into additional bedrooms.

THE LODGE HOUSE
The Lodge House originally served as a main residence for the current owners whilst they restored the Moulin. It is totally independent from the Moulin.
Ground Floor
SITTING ROOM : with patio doors opening onto private terrace which over looks the lake. Kitchen: with window over looking the canal bridge.
First Floor
BEDROOM : with exposed wooden beamed ceiling, small window over-looking the Moulin and large patio doors leading out onto the large balcony which over looks the lake.
Shower Room : with wash hand basin and shower cubicle.

The Moulin itself currently has just one bedroom suite. However it would be very easy to convert the sitting room of the Lodge House into two further bedrooms. There is also the possibility to easily convert the Tower into two additional bedrooms. The current owner is an architect and he designed and managed the restoration. He would be happy to advise and assist with these alterations.

The picturesque GROUNDS have been beautifully landscaped and have a wealth of interesting plants giving colour for much of the year. The grounds extend around the Moulin and include many mature trees as well as a perfectly managed enclosed “potager” or vegetable garden.
The land included in the sale is 7,000 meters squared. The neighbouring farmer currently has four additional hectares for sale should additional land be required. With the additional land, this would make a perfect situation for horses.
