Exceptional Property With 19th Century Mill, Detached Villa, 2 Pools On 1.6 Hectares

In the heart of a rare natural environment, in the absolute and preserved tranquility of the Bresque valley in Salernes, unfolds an exceptional property blending history, authenticity, and the gentle way of life of Provence. Nestled within a magnificent 1.6-hectare estate traversed by an irrigation canal and bordered by the crystalline waters of the Bresque, this unique property consists of an authentic 19th-century flour mill and an elegant detached villa, offering nearly 400 m² of living space in total.

A true witness to the rich industrial past of Salernes, the mill is part of the old mills that once contributed to the prosperity of the valley. Powered by an ingenious network of béals, canals, and outlets, these buildings were the economic heart of the region. Even today, this characterful dwelling retains all the soul of its history while enjoying modern comfort essential for a quality residence.

The mill offers generous living volumes. On the ground floor, a spacious, cozy living room enhanced with a fireplace invites conviviality, while an authentic Provençal kitchen equipped with a cooking piano will appeal to gastronomy enthusiasts. A shower room, a separate WC, a superb wine cellar in the basement, and a pleasant stone terrace open to nature complete this space. A workshop of about 25 m² will allow enthusiasts of DIY, art, or creation to have a dedicated space. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate WC make up the sleeping area. Heating is provided by a heat pump ensuring comfort and energy savings.

Built in 2004, the detached villa benefits from a bright and functional architecture. It includes a pleasant living room with a wood stove, a equipped kitchen, as well as a spacious single-story master suite with a private shower room. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate WC host family and guests in a comfortable setting. Reversible air conditioning ensures optimal well-being in all seasons.

Each dwelling has its own traditional pool, offering complete independence and allowing for both a multigenerational family residence and a quality tourist activity such as holiday rentals or guest rooms.

The land, a true green setting, hosts numerous olive trees as well as a great diversity of Mediterranean species. The canal crossing the property is a particularly valuable asset in Provence, allowing natural and economical watering of the garden. Without any vis-à-vis, in an preserved environment where only the singing of birds and the gentle murmur of water come to disturb the silence, this property offers an exceptional quality of life while being only a few minutes from the shops, restaurants, and amenities of the charming village of Salernes.

A rare place, full of history and emotion, ideal for heritage lovers, nature, and authentic Provence.
