French windmill
                      home for sale

This romantic hide away windmill is set just outside a small village. The only noise comes from the church bells that chime hourly.The sound of sheep and a couple of cows in the surrounding fields really emphasises the tranquility of the area.

Built in 1885, this charming property has character and comfort. In 1975 the original workings were removed and the building was changed from a working Windmill into what can only be very loosly termed a residence.

The full renovation includes, mains electricity, mains water, septic tank, new roof made from hand crafted Chestnut tiles, Oak floors, Double glazed Oak windows and shutters, Granite work surfaces in the kitchen and a modern bathroom with large shower cubicle.

The windmill is arranged on four levels, kitchen on the ground floor, upstairs is the cosy living room with wood burning stove, a well equipped bathroom is on level three and the romantic bedroom on the top floor.
