Beautiful Renovated 16Th-Century Mill

Property Description

Just minutes from Falaise, in the heart of an utterly unspoilt natural setting, this former 16th-century mill offers an exceptionally rare lifestyle, surrounded by meadows, woodland and a peaceful stream.
Accessed via a small country lane, the property enjoys remarkable tranquillity while remaining close to local amenities.

Carefully renovated to provide a comfortable family home of approximately 180 sqm, the mill has retained all the charm of its historic architecture: exposed beams, a square tower with spiral staircase, stone fireplace and beautiful small-paned windows create a warm and authentic atmosphere.

The stream that once powered the mill has been thoughtfully diverted below the property to prevent any risk of dampness, while preserving both the beauty of the site and the soothing presence of water within the landscape.

A delightful terrace adorned with climbing roses opens the house onto exceptional views over meadows and wooded countryside. The bright kitchen and dining room form an inviting family space of approximately 27 sqm. The reception room, around 37 sqm in size, is centred around a magnificent stone fireplace and offers an especially elegant and welcoming atmosphere.

The spiral staircase within the tower leads to the upper floors, where there are four bedrooms, including one with an en-suite shower room, along with additional bathrooms and laundry areas. Halfway up, a suspended garden terrace enjoys spectacular elevated views over the surrounding countryside.

The estate extends over approximately 1.35 hectares of landscaped gardens and pastureland.
An elegant cart shed, renovated using traditional materials, serves as a covered garage.

A long stone outbuilding also includes an independent cottage of approximately 70 sqm with two bedrooms, ideal for holiday rentals, guest accommodation or discreet on-site caretaking.

Meadows, a tree-lined pond, chicken coop and a small outbuilding complete this charming bucolic property, located just 30 minutes from Caen.
