VERY RARE 15TH CENTURY FRENCH MILL

Chateaux, gentle and refined lifestyle, wines and beautiful landscape, the Indre and Loire region is marked by its capital - Tours and boasts famous castles including the likes of Chenonceau, Amboise, Chinon and Villandry. Situated on the outskirts of Genille, one of the larger villages in Touraine and 11km from the nearest town, Loches. Genille offers a small supermarket, two bakers, a gas station, an excellent restaurant which figures into the Michelin Guide, and a cr?perie.

The oldest section of the property dates back to the 15th century and 17th and 19th for the other buildings. Five hundred years ago, it replaced another mill from which the thousand year old beam, still the mainstay of the mill in the sitting room, was taken.The property covers two hectares (approx 5 acres). The kitchen is fully fitted and includes a gas stove. The dining room includes the remains of the mechanism used to drive the mill machinery. The wheel is no longer a feature of the premises. The downstairs sitting room has a large fire place and the whole house is heated by oil fired central heating. There is a large first floor lounge (50m?) which doubles up easily as office space if required. There are twelve main rooms plus accessories such as workshop, large outside sheds and a barbecue made from a former bread oven. Seven of the eight bedrooms have ensuite bathroom facilities.

The property can be sold either as a private residence or as a B&B; furnishings can also be sold with the property if required. The owners have the advantage of owning the fishing rights on the four banks of the river plus being "Maitres des Eaux" which carries the responsibility of opening and shutting the three locks on the river.
