Pays de la Loire, Mayenne, Désertines, France

A16294 -
Nestled in the picturesque Mayenne countryside, this exceptional converted flour mill presents a rare opportunity to acquire a thriving and well-established business together with separate owner’s accommodation. Offering extensive, light-filled living spaces, the property combines character, comfort, and versatility, making it ideal for holiday rentals, retreats, conferences, group gatherings, or family celebrations.

The mill has been thoughtfully divided into two independent gîtes, although they are frequently rented together to accommodate larger groups and events.

## Gîte 1

The property opens into a spacious entrance hall and lounge (41 m²) with wooden flooring and views across the surrounding countryside. A second lounge/snug (21.5 m²) provides a cosy additional seating area with built-in storage cupboards.

At the heart of the property is the impressive kitchen and dining room (89 m²), designed to seat up to 24 guests. The fully fitted kitchen features a built-in oven, Rayburn cooker, generous storage, and elegant marble worktops. A door from the kitchen opens onto a balcony overlooking the beautiful countryside. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large utility room with additional storage and plumbing for washing machines and dryers. A separate WC completes the ground floor.

On the first floor is a communal seating area (41 m²) where guests can relax. The five luxury suites, arranged over two floors, range from 33 m² to 60.5 m². Each suite has been tastefully decorated and benefits from its own lounge area, television, dressing space, and private en-suite bathroom. High ceilings, dual-aspect windows, freestanding baths, and high-quality bathroom fittings create an atmosphere of comfort and luxury throughout.

Also within this gîte is a substantial multi-purpose room (94.7 m²), ideal for use as a yoga studio, conference room, or meeting space, together with a games room (59 m²), perfect for entertaining guests of all ages.

Character features such as exposed beams, an oak staircase, large windows, and high ceilings add charm and authenticity throughout the property. Outside, there are gardens to both the front and rear, including a pétanque pitch and terrace areas.

## Gîte 2

Occupying another section of the original mill, this gîte comprises an entrance hall (11.8 m²) with exposed stone walls leading into a spacious kitchen and dining room (27.5 m²) with central island and ample storage.
