Description
Tucked away from view at the end of a long avenue lined with plane trees, this historic former paper mill sits on over 2 hectares of non-floodable land.
All on one level, the property offers a rare combination of character, comfort and near energy self-sufficiency. The house, mill, outbuildings and conservatory are arranged around a spacious central courtyard, creating a wonderfully private and harmonious setting.
The house has two possible entrances: a practical entrance through the barn, ideal for everyday logistics, and a beautiful, welcoming main entrance at the heart of the property. This opens directly onto the warm living and dining room, featuring a wood-burning stove.
The adjoining fitted kitchen has direct access to the terrace and offers excellent facilities, including a raised dishwasher, hob with integrated extractor, and plenty of cupboards and drawers. A useful adjoining pantry/utility room keeps everything perfectly organised.
The sleeping accommodation includes a shower room with hammam shower, WC, two bedrooms and a laundry room. A separate section, comprising a bedroom, coffee area and shower room with WC, could be used independently and was previously offered as short-term accommodation at €85 per night.
The first adjoining barn includes a boiler/utility area, second kitchen, a relaxing room with jacuzzi, storage space and wood store.
Across the courtyard, a second barn provides a two-car garage, cellar and storage area. Attached to it, a bright conservatory houses a heated 9 m² swimming pool with jacuzzi, counter-current swimming system and electric cover.
The beautifully landscaped grounds are both attractive and easy to maintain, with mature trees and a particularly impressive specimen tree providing the perfect setting for summer lunches and dinners.
Technical features: air-source heat pump central heating, tilt-and-turn double glazing, central vacuum system, water softener, well with pump. The house roof was completely renewed in 2022 and fitted with a rainproof membrane.
The property also benefits from an exceptional level of energy autonomy: 9 kW of photovoltaic panels combined with 7 kW of battery storage, allowing the house to generate and store much of its own electricity.
The mill itself offers further potential. A quotation has been obtained to restore the original turbine, with estimated electricity production generating approximately €13,000 in annual income, with an estimated five-year payback period.
A rare property combining history, privacy, comfort and energy independence, with genuine potential for further development.
Two minutes from the village of Saint Séverin, which has all the amenities you need, and 13 minutes from Ribérac or the historic village of Aubeterre sur Drone.
