Haute Vienne - Stunning Former Watermill Waiting for you to Move in and Enjoy.

Property Description

Situated on the edge of a small village close to Châteauponsac, in the heart of the Haute-Vienne, this beautiful former hydro-electric watermill is a property full of character, charm and history. Once used as a trout farm, it lies alongside the River Gartempe, with its terrace overlooking cascading waterfalls and mill streams, creating an enchanting setting that is both peaceful and dramatic.
On the ground floor you are welcomed by a spacious dining room with exposed oak beams, leading into a newly fitted kitchen with direct access to the terrace. The lounge is a delightful surprise, offering a warm and cosy atmosphere in winter thanks to its open fireplace, while the thick stone walls ensure a cool retreat during the heat of summer.
The first floor opens onto a landing with space for a study, a large bathroom complete with shower and roll-top bath, two comfortable bedrooms and a second shower room. On the second floor there is a dormitory-style room ideal for children, along with three further bedrooms and another bathroom, providing generous accommodation for family and guests.
Every part of this property is accompanied by the gentle sound of running water. The wooden decking offers the perfect place to relax, while the mill streams create natural paddling pools. The grounds include a section of woodland which has been left to nature, but if cleared would give direct access to the banks of the River Gartempe.
The property also offers the potential to generate electricity, and is equipped with a fully conforming septic tank. A large garage, ample parking and several outbuildings complete this unique and very special home. Words can hardly do justice to the beauty of this property, which is truly one to discover in person. (5.50 % fees incl. VAT at the buyer's expense.)
