This beautifully restored miller's house has 5 double bedrooms, a huge dining hall, comfortable living room and a cosy "snug" with original bread oven. Set in 15 hectares of woodland and fields the land borders the river Aire. Also included is the original large flour mill which needs total restoration.

This original miller's house has been beautifully restored and retains many original features such as stone walls and beams. On the ground floor the front door opens into the spacious lounge with large inglenook fireplace. To the left is the fully-fitted kitchen with electric oven and hob and central workstation and breakfast bar. The huge (4m x 8.8m) dining hall leads off the kitchen. It has three sets of patio doors which open onto the terrace, and a minstrel gallery. A cosy 'snug' with an original bread oven leads off the dining hall. There are two bedrooms downstairs, one with en-suite, and a laundry room and separate WC.
Upstairs are three spacious double bedrooms. Two of these have en-suite shower rooms and the third has a corner bath as well as a shower.
The house is set in 16ha of lwoodland and meadows and it borders on your own private stretch of the River Adour which is fed by the spring waters from the Pyrenees. There is a natural style heated swimming pool and pool house. Adjacent to the house is the original flour mill, a large building on three floors which retains the original grindstones and is approximately 115,000m2. The mill is for total restoration but could become a luxury boutique hotel or luxury holiday flats.
This beautiful property is a superb hide-away. There is great potential to develop the flour mill into a luxury hotel or holiday flats (subject to planning), but even without the mill the house could provide a good income as a luxury gite. This property must be seen to be appreciated.

The Landes department is renoowned for reliably good weather. The spring is usually characterised by rain while the summer is warm with the occasional storm. Running parallel to the coastline there are dunes, with a number of large lakes beside them in the north. The south is largely hilly and much of the department is covered in forest.
The area has been able to preserve a great deal of its natural heritage. The Landes Atlantic coastline is known as the silver coast, and after navigating the largest dunes in the whole of Europe you will witness the largest waves the continent has to offer as well. It's no wonder that surfers from all over the world flock here every year.
Mont-de-Marsan is the department capital, and this historical town is located at the confluence of the Midou and Douze. It has been a centre of trade throughout its history, with an impressive 14th Century keep with grand gardens, which is now used by the French military.
Elsewhere, Capbreton is an attractive seaside resort located in the south of the department. It also has an active fishing port and a promenade built by Napoleon III.
Bordeaux, Pau and Biarritz all have regular flights from the UK. The TGV trains take under 3 and half hours to travel from Paris to Bordeaux, or alternatively to Biarritz.
Property is not cheap in this region, but then does offer fabulous coastline properties with a great climate. Cheaper properties are inland, but too far inland towards Toulouse and property prices start to rise again.
