Poitiers, Charente 86000

20 km south of Poitiers, in the Clain Valley, lies a former 19th-century watermill and its outbuilding, set on a property of over four hectares crisscrossed by several river branches that form small islands accessible by footbridges. The property extends eastward into a wooded area. The former mill, renovated for mixed residential and tourist accommodation, comprises three independent units totaling 485 m² of living space, which can be connected. The owners' residence, accessible on the ground floor from the courtyard, consists of an entrance hall overlooking the millrace, a large living room with a fireplace, a separate kitchen, and a large reception room. Upstairs, there is a master suite with a bathroom. The guest accommodation is located on the first floor of the building, accessible via an external staircase. It includes a living room, a separate kitchen, and a billiard room; on the upper floor, there are four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The property is in excellent condition, with tasteful decor and a focus on preserving the original features. At the far end of the lower part of the mill, there is a separate apartment, currently used as a gîte (holiday rental), comprising a kitchen/dining room on the ground floor and, upstairs, a living room, two bedrooms, and a shower room. From the garden side of the house, a path through beautiful landscaped grounds leads to a large heated swimming pool, surrounded by nature. On the courtyard side, a second building houses a spa, a barn for equipment, a workshop, and a dog kennel. The property is situated close to nature in a peaceful, green setting, 3 km from the nearest village with all amenities, schools, and public transport, Poitiers is 20 km away via the N10. The property could be used for a family project, possibly with a business component; the existing gîte and bed and breakfast business could also be maintained, generating an annual income of 35,000 to 45,000 over five months of operation.
