The property reflects the owners' love for heritage and nature, blending multiple atmospheres that truly "give it soul."

The main house, perched on a knoll, comprises:

Entering directly into this spacious, renovated 62.3 sqm open-plan living area, with a lounge area and fully equipped kitchen, the layout is bright with large windows, offering views over the mill wheel on one side and the wooded area on the other. The wood flooring, beams, quality materials, and equipment lend authenticity to the modern style.
The kitchen, renovated in 2014, features a large central island by Mobalpa with storage, including a stunning Lacanche range, dishwasher, and a spacious fridge-freezer. This level also offers a utility room with dressing space, a 4.3 sqm bathroom, separate Wc, and three large bedrooms (19, 15, and 20 sqm) with oak flooring, decorative fireplaces, two of which are adjoining with river views.

Nearby are three former pigsties, converted into a 33 sqm outbuilding, adjacent to another, now a culinary space featuring a pizza oven, bar, and preserves area. The owners have also created a vintage-style terrace with a wooden canopy, known as the restaurant, with its stone wall, beams, and stairs leading to a second sheltered terrace with views of the vegetable garden, connecting to the upper part of the main outbuilding  a real "gem" of the property.
In the center of the courtyard stands the main outbuilding: a beautiful barn of 101 sqm with an additional 79 sqm mezzanine, stone paving, remarkable beam work, passing through to the meadows beyond.
