Welcome to this stunning former watermill renovated to a very high standard, located next to the charming Château Javarzay in the town of Chef Boutonne, Deux Sèvres. This unique residence offers a harmonious blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Spanning 290 m2 of living space, the property boasts beautiful gardens on three sides, creating an oasis of serenity. The crystal clear Boutonne river runs through the garden and under the house, enhancing the tranquil atmosphere. At the back of the property, there is a travertine terrace from the living room leading to a 7x3m swimming pool that was built just two years ago. In front of the house, there is a picturesque mill pond, where water cascades into the millrace passing under the property. Next to the pond, there is a large quality paved hangar, offering a shaded covered space perfect for entertaining guests. On the side of the house, there is a charming garden, where the river flows on both sides, offering panoramic views of the Château Javarzay lake. Here, a vine-covered pergola leads the way to delightful outdoor culinary experiences. A wooden bridge over the river connects the rear and side gardens. Inside, entering the house through the front door, you are welcomed into a small hallway. To the right, a large shower room awaits, offering convenience and functionality. From the hallway, you enter the spacious living/kitchen area. With a window overlooking the front garden and folding doors leading to the rear terrace, this space is bathed in natural light. The newly fitted kitchen with ample space for a table and chairs makes this room the heart of the home. The living room features a huge double-sided wood burner that connects to another lounge/dining room. With a window overlooking the garden and folding doors leading to the terrace, this room offers seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces. From this room, a staircase leads to a mezzanine office/lounge with painted wooden floors. The windows in this room offer beautiful views of the front and rear gardens, providing a peaceful workspace or relaxation area. A corridor branching off from this room leads to four bedrooms and a bathroom. On the left, a spacious fifth bedroom awaits, with exposed beams, wooden floors, French doors opening onto a Juliette balcony, and stunning views of the gardens and the river below. This room also features a walk-in wardrobe and a large ensuite bathroom. Descending the stairs from this bedroom to the lower level, you will find another lounge/office, with French doors opening onto a Juliette balcony with captivating river views and a window overlooking the rear garden. The white laminate flooring, wood-clad walls, and exposed beams add a stylish touch. Notably, the room includes the large millstones that were once used to grind flour when the mill was in operation. From this room, a door leads to a large unconverted room that offers endless possibilities, such as a small independent apartment or a games room. From here, you can catch a glimpse of the original watermill wheel, adding a distinctive feature to the space if desired. A small landing gives access to stairs leading to the mill workings on the ground floor, with doors opening to the front and rear garden of the property. Adjacent to the mill workings, there is a room currently used as a office/guest bedroom, and a separate room in the semi-basement housing the boiler, oil tank, and providing additional storage space. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating in most areas, with the large bedroom having its own electric heating system. Double glazed wooden windows adorn the entire property (except for the unrenovated room), ensuring both insulation and charm. Price thoughts: The price of 519,000 for this unique and beautifully renovated watermill offers exceptional value considering the high standard of renovation, the stunning location next to Château Javarzay, and the expansive living space and gardens. The property's blend of historic charm and modern comfort, along with the tranquil surroundings, make this a truly special and desirable home.
