Description

A watermill with origins dating back to the 18th Century situated on the river Boulzane in the beautiful Aude countryside. The ski resorts of Font Romeu & Pyrenees 2000 are just 35 minutes drive away while the nearest market towns are Axat, Quillan & St Paul, all approx 17km.

Set in 7,000m2 (nearly 2 acres) of land comprising gardens, meadow and woodland bordering the river, this property comprises a main house with five bedrooms, a separate 2 bedroom apartment (Gite) overlooking the river, plus a large two-storey double garage with integral car port and wood store to one side. This garage would transform well into two separate Gites while the house itself has a huge attic space that could easily accommodate four double ensuite bedrooms to help achieve the transformation of this family home into a substantial Chambres d’Hotes (B&B) business with three Gites (self catering apartments) to the side. Although fully functional and ready to go, the property would benefit from a refresh with new kitchens and bathrooms plus redecoration throughout.

The main house comprises: entrance hall, sitting/dining room (45m2) with large fireplace, kitchen leading through to large workshop/storeroom/garage, separate WC, larder leading through to the 2 bedroom apartment with shower room, WC, kitchen/sitting room with fireplace and its own separate entrance. On the 1st floor there is a family bathroom, separate WC, study/bedroom 5 plus four further bedrooms of large proportions all with French windows leading onto a veranda that runs the full width of the house. In addition there is a shower room and multiple storage cupboards along the corridor; a wooden staircase leads up to the attic offering 160m2 of potential extra living space. Below the house is a cellar comprising a number of rooms holding wood, central heating fuel tanks, a vaulted wine cellar and a ladder leading down to the workings of the old mill.

The separate double garage was built with transformation into Gites in mind, as such there is electricity and water, windows, a mezzanine floor and plentiful ceiling height.

The gardens around the house are set to lawn with a variety of shrubs and fruit trees, becoming woodland and meadow as one moves farther away. The property boundary goes down to the river Boulzane which has been diverted to provide water to power the mill, this water runs along a channel that feeds a series of holding tanks before being diverted past the water wheel and returning to the river. A wide variety of fauna and flora abound, from trout in the river to wild boar in the woods and numerous wild flowers and deciduous trees, all contributing to a wonderfully calm and rural atmosphere in one of the prettiest parts of southern France....
