Normandy, Calvados, Vienne-en-Bessin, France

This historic water mill from the 1700s stands on the edge of Vienne-en-Bessin in the Normandy countryside, with outbuildings beside the river. The property has been renovated while retaining its mill architecture, including the sluice, mill race and water wheel.

The layout comprises 9 rooms, 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The main house includes a fitted kitchen, a dining room opening towards the river and a corner sitting room facing the garden, together with four bedrooms including a suite. The guest house adds a kitchen with dining area, a shower room, a sitting room and a mezzanine bedroom.

The property also includes a building suitable for a garage or studio, a courtyard, a garden, an island reached by footbridge and a riverside meadow. The retained mill features and renovated rooms provide both living space and practical ancillary areas.

The property is on the edge of Vienne-en-Bessin, in a riverside setting. Bayeux is less than 10 km away, and the D-Day landing beaches are only a few kilometres away.
