Le Puits Du Moulin, Une Demeure Du XVII Ie Siècle

AT THE GATES OF VESOUL, AN OLD MILL BETWEEN RIVER AND COUNTRYSIDE

Just minutes from Vesoul, Le Puits du Moulin unfolds a story that began in the 18th century, set in a landscape where water still accompanies every view. Behind its stone facades, this property of about 440 m² offers a generous home, designed both for family life and hosting. Seven bedrooms, spacious reception areas, a veranda overlooking the garden, and an already established bed and breakfast business are set within a domain of over 1.5 hectares. An orchard, vegetable garden, pastures, swimming pool, and terraces extend the house all the way to the banks of the Durgeon.

AN OLD MILL IN RHYTHM WITH THE DURGEON

You have to follow the countryside to the gates of Vesoul to discover Le Puits du Moulin. An 18th-century residence placed in a landscape of water and greenery, with the special presence that houses with a long history possess. The Durgeon runs alongside the property. Its flow sets the pace of the estate, accompanies the gardens, and recalls the site’s original purpose. Formerly a mill turned restaurant in the 1990s, the building began a new chapter in 2011 when its owners started restoring it and creating a guesthouse. The stone, exposed beams, and old volumes now blend with more contemporary touches. Successive renovations have accompanied the house over the years: kitchens, bathrooms, woodwork, painting, and more recently, the swimming pool have been redesigned with care to preserve the spirit of the place. Spanning about 440 m², the spaces offer a particularly flexible use. Here, the house can continue welcoming travelers or fully reclaim its family home role.

A HOME MADE FOR LIVING AND HOSTING

The area dedicated to the bed and breakfast has its own rhythm. From the entrance, a reception area with a bar creates a friendly atmosphere. The first bedroom of 21 m² has its own shower room and private toilet. The dining room, air-conditioned and warmed by a Godin stove, naturally extends the time spent around the table. A semi-professional kitchen, a laundry room, and several preparation and storage areas discreetly support the activity. Upstairs, three bedrooms each extended by mezzanines offer four beds and have their own shower rooms with separate toilets. The existing layout accommodates twelve people in four bedrooms and also lends itself to a different interpretation of the spaces, notably as a holiday rental. The private section cultivates a more intimate atmosphere. A wooden and wrought iron staircase leads to the fully equipped Schmidt kitchen, the living-dining room, and the bedrooms. An additional room can serve as an office or bedroom depending on needs. The master suite combines an air-conditioned bedroom, dressing room, and bathroom with shower and bathtub. Another bedroom also has its own private shower room. Then comes the veranda, about twenty square meters, widely open to the garden. Light enters generously, and the seasons become part of the decor. Three wood stoves complement the oil heating, while reversible air conditioning serves several rooms in the house.

ONE AND A HALF HECTARES TO EXTEND OUTDOOR DAYS

Around the house, 15,641 m² form a true territory. The terraces, including two covered areas, create several ways to enjoy outdoor living: lunch in the shade near the house, an afternoon by the pool, extending an evening around the large brick barbecue, or simply watching the garden change with the light. The pool is part of this ensemble. Renovated in 2024, it features a manual dome. Further on, the land becomes orchard, vegetable garden, pasture, and wooded garden. A greenhouse, wood shed, well, pond, and water recovery reserve support this outdoor lifestyle. A few horses can also find space in the pastures. The nearby bike path offers another way to explore the surrounding landscapes. Vesoul and its amenities are five minutes away, while the train station provides access to major rail connections. This proximity gives the mill a unique balance: the countryside remains ever-present, the town immediately accessible. The bed and breakfast business, open year-round and now complemented by a table d’hôte, already tells one of the possible lives of the property. Its volumes suggest others: a large multigenerational home, a country residence, a place to gather family and friends, or a project combining living and hosting.
