Converted, stone built, Watermill dating from 1897 although we have evidence that there has been a mill on this site since at least 1753. Converted into a home 1996 -1999 the house comes with around 285m² of living space over three floors, (plus an open ended loft 30 m²). Just above the millstream there is an undeveloped basement/ lower ground floor which it could be possible to convert into games or media room. Close to the house is a barn, re-roofed in 2001, with structural change so that it could convert to an annexe with two storeys. Another outbuilding (re-roofed in 2009) contains an ancient bread oven, storage space and former hen house. The house comes with:

• A hallway entrance room alongside which is a separate boiler room for the central heating and central vacuum cleaner systems • A cloak room with hanging space and a washroom/ toilet • living room (85m²) with under floor heating ,a large fireplace and wooden beams • a fully equipped kitchen in French rural style


• a laundry room with a washing machine and tumble dryer • 3 en-suite bedrooms with wardrobes o ( N.B the master suite occupies the whole of the third floor with a large bathroom with corner bather, shower cubicle and dressing room – could easily be adapted to form two bedrooms.)


• A fourth bedroom is currently used as a study with fitted cabinets and book cases The loft sits mezzanine style above the Master suite • A mill stream runs beneath the Mill, a glass panel on the ground floor gives an internal view of this. (NB the ground floor of the mill is situated 4 metres above river level so no risk of flooding)


• The barn, opposite, has a footprint of 213M² and contains a garage suitable for three cars, the remainder comprises workshop areas on ground and first floor levels; a feature of the barn building is a covered outdoor dining area. Provision has been made for installation of a shower room , currently used as a wine cellar


• A landscaped garden surrounds the property totalling 1.7 hectares on two levels. On the upper level a private and secluded garden together with a yew hedged Orchard and an established vegetable garden. The lower level is alongside 60mtres of the River Thiez and has been landscaped to accommodate an ornamental fish pond 12+ metres across and a small steam to permit trout to circumvent a three metre barrage. A circular sun terrace, 9m radius, is alongside the pond.

Located between the small towns of St Genix sur Guiers and Le Pont de Beauvoisin , 4 kilometres from the A43 : 25 minutes drive from Chambéry and 45 minute from Lyon : airports of Lyon and Geneva are at 35 and 60 minutes respectively..
