Paris-Isle of France, Val-d`Oise, Labbeville

A43240EHO95 - Labbeville is a village of genuine character in the Vexin National Park, its eleventh-century church and eighteenth-century château standing as quiet reminders of a deep-rooted history. The village sits in a peaceful valley 35 km from central Paris and around 15 minutes by car from L'Isle-Adam, where you will find a well-known weekly market, supermarkets, shops and restaurants.
This former mill was built to endure. Massive stone walls and stone columns support the beam structure throughout, giving the house a solidity and presence that is immediately apparent on arrival. The living areas are generous and open, with oak parquet flooring in the reception rooms and bedrooms, tiled floors in the kitchen and bathrooms, and cast iron radiators throughout. The river runs through the garden, and the sound of moving water is a constant and pleasant feature of daily life here. Kingfishers fish for small trout in the water below — the kind of detail that is difficult to put a price on.

Technical
Heating is provided by two heat pumps. The second floor and loft benefit from reversible air conditioning. Hot water is supplied by a new thermodynamic cylinder. The house has double glazing throughout, with underfloor and loft insulation.
Energy autonomy potential
A water turbine formerly installed on the property generated electricity from the river. The turbine itself is no longer in place, but the water control mechanisms and screening equipment appear to remain intact and operational. There is a reasonable basis to believe that installing a new turbine could provide full electricity autonomy and potentially generate revenue from surplus production fed back to the grid. This assessment would need to be confirmed by a qualified engineer before any commitment is made.
Transport
The property is well connected for both daily commuting and international travel.
