Authentic watermill with miller's house, pond and mill race
A rare opportunity to own an authentic 19th-century watermill and adjoining miller's house, peacefully set in almost one hectare of gardens, woodland and waterways near the popular market town of Le Grand-Lucé.
Offering around 200 m² of accommodation across two independent dwellings, the property is ideal as a family home, holiday retreat or gîte business. The preserved original mill machinery, mill race and pond create a truly unique setting.
Amenities are just 5 minutes away in Le Grand-Lucé, with Le Mans around 30 minutes and Tours approximately 50 minutes away. TGV services from Le Mans reach Paris in under an hour, while the Channel ports and Tours Val de Loire Airport are all within easy reach, making this an ideal permanent home or easily accessible French countryside escape.
This character property comprises the original watermill and adjoining miller's house, offering flexible accommodation for family living, multi-generational occupation, guest accommodation or a tourism project.
The WATERMILL retains exposed beams, stone walls and its remarkable original milling machinery, making it a unique home for lovers of industrial heritage and period character. Comfortable as it is, there remains scope for further enhancement.

Set in almost one hectare of mature grounds, the property is crossed by the mill race, which feeds a picturesque pond and creates a tranquil waterside setting. Mature trees, lawns and terraces offer plenty of space to relax, entertain and enjoy the surrounding wildlife.
The property benefits from a compliant individual drainage system installed in 2022, predominantly double glazing, recent plumbing improvements, a pellet boiler and fireplace in the mill and a wood-burning stove in the miller's house. The mill has a slate roof, while the miller's house has a tiled roof, with the rear section requiring renovation.
Combining history, character and an idyllic waterside setting, Le Moulin de la Bulassière is a truly unique property with exceptional potential. Early viewing is highly recommended.
