This former Mill has the appearance of a gracious country house that has melded into its surroundings, and everywhere has an elegant patina commensurate with its age. There are elements that surprise and delight around every corner, and it is a relief to see that the property has not been over-reformed, so the interior and exterior spaces still exude the spirit of the past.
The layout lends itself to many possible uses: as a rambling family home; as a large holiday rental property with private owner’s accommodation; as a beautiful Bed and Breakfast property; as a centre for creative courses.
The main house has a tourism license for holiday rentals, and generates an average of €1,750 per week.

Main House - First Floor
4 large bedrooms and 2/3 bathrooms, one of which is ensuite. Overlooking the courtyard, there is another elegant drawing room with original tiled floor. Small service kitchen with access to stairs leading down to the courtyard.

Outside
The setting for the Mill is quite magical, sitting beside a river that runs throughout the year. The land, 4,964 m2, is planted with mature trees and there are 50 olive trees dotted beyond the house.
Main central courtyard designed for outside living - a sofa against one wall, a built-in barbecue and a long refectory table for lazy meals beneath the vines. Stairs lead up to the pool area.
There is a long terrace with another built-in marble-topped dining table and a built-in sofa for 10 or 12 people, relaxing in style. There are beautiful views stretching over the adjacent hills.
