DESCRIPTION

Ref 4824: Characterful house for sale, 60 km from Paris

In the heart of the Pays de Valois, the Vallée de l’Automne offers peaceful landscapes of deep forests, sun-drenched meadows and charming villages.

This unspoilt setting invites you to slow down, breathe deeply and be surprised by a heritage of unexpected richness.

Here, every turn in the road tells a story, and this mill is a testament to that.

Located, more precisely, in Crépy-en-Valois, in the south of the Picardy region, it is nonetheless close to Paris.

By car or train, the capital is less than an hour away.

And heading north, 25 km away, lies Compiègne with its château, as well as the Château de Pierrefonds.

It is a region of incredible richness in terms of its environment, culture and heritage.

The town of Crépy-en-Valois has a population of 15,000 and offers all the facilities and services needed for people of all ages to thrive.

Upon entering the ground floor, you are greeted by a spacious 125 sqm reception room, comprising a kitchen that opens onto the dining room and a lounge area.

A four-sided glass-fronted insert fireplace forms the centrepiece of the room.

Two staircases, situated on either side, lead to the upper floors, whilst a third leads to the cellar.

To the right of the entrance, a hallway with a wardrobe leads to a utility room, which opens onto a bathroom with a toilet.

A separate toilet completes this level.

The first floor comprises a living room/playroom, whose ceiling—partially open to the upper floor—creates a lovely sense of space.

It also includes a bedroom with a shower room and toilet, as well as a two-room suite with its own shower room and toilet.

An additional, more private room could be converted into a kitchen to create a separate living area.

On the second floor, there is a spacious landing area and a two-room suite, complete with a shower room and a toilet.

On the third floor, a loft-style living room with exposed beams leads to four bedrooms, two of which have en-suite bathrooms and toilets, as well as a separate bathroom with a toilet.

In the basement, the mill reveals a remarkably well-preserved ancient mechanism, the true centrepiece of the site.

Fed by the stream that runs through the property, the millstream flows directly beneath the building, having once powered the water wheel.

Here, one can still see the imposing original gears, with their wooden and metal teeth, as well as the drive shaft that converted the force of the water into mechanical energy.

Steeped in history, the whole site offers a striking insight into the traditional workings of mills of yesteryear.

This authentic space, combining both technical and heritage aspects, is a rare gem for lovers of places with character.

Covering an area of 7,000 m², the walled grounds offer an idyllic setting with a peaceful atmosphere.

They consist of extensive lawns dotted with beautiful trees of various species, creating a play of light and shadow throughout the seasons.

Two branches of the river meander harmoniously through the property, lending the site a sense of freshness, charm and poetry.

The natural riverbanks, perfect for relaxation, invite you to make the most of this exceptional setting, where the presence of water gives the garden a lively and authentic character.

A unique place, ideal for lovers of nature and tranquillity, where the murmur of the river accompanies daily life.

An old stone dovecote, currently in a state of disrepair, could be restored to provide additional living space.
