There are mills… and then there is this mill.
There are locations… and then there is this location.
And sometimes, a mill exists in an utterly exceptional setting — just like this one.

Hidden away in a lush haven of greenery, in the enchanting valley of the Dronne and only 5 km from the lively market town of Ribérac, this rare property reveals itself after crossing a romantic little bridge. Set amidst calm and unspoiled nature, it offers an extraordinary sense of peace, privacy, and timeless beauty.

Lovingly and tastefully renovated, the property has been designed to combine authentic charm with modern comfort. The ensemble of buildings immediately captivates with its seamless integration into the landscape, the understated refinement of its architecture, and the harmony of its gardens and outdoor spaces.

The main residence, bathed in natural light, unfolds gracefully across two levels. It includes a spacious living room with exposed beams and views of the water, a fully equipped kitchen, three comfortable bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Every detail reflects a thoughtful balance between rustic warmth and contemporary comfort.

The second building offers three independent one-bedroom apartments, ideal for guests or potential seasonal rental (subject to obtaining the necessary permissions and registration). Each unit is carefully designed, with private terraces that open directly onto the tranquil flow of the Dronne. A relaxation area, set in the former turbine room, serves as a unique retreat — a place to unwind while listening to the gentle murmur of the river.

Outdoors, numerous terraces and seating areas invite you to savor every season — whether dining by the water, reading in the shade of mature trees, or enjoying sunsets reflected on the river’s surface.

To complete the picture, a large swimming pool bordered by stone terraces and an elegant pool house with shower add to the property’s appeal, providing an exceptional leisure space perfectly attuned to its natural surroundings.

Set within beautifully landscaped gardens and featuring carefully arranged parking areas, this property forms a secret and verdant refuge — where nature and architecture exist in perfect harmony.

Whether as a family home, a tranquil countryside retreat, or a hospitality project (with appropriate permissions), this watermill offers an opportunity to own a piece of timeless Dordogne magic — a place where the rhythm of the river sets the pace for a life of serenity and inspiration.
