Exclusively. In the heart of a natural environment of rare beauty, in the absolute and preserved calm of the Bresque valley in Salernes, an exceptional property unfolds, combining history, authenticity, and the sweetness of Provençal living. Nestled within a magnificent estate of 1.6 hectares crossed by an irrigation canal and bordered by the crystal-clear 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 Salernes’ rich industrial past, the mill is part of the old mills that once contributed to the prosperity of the valley. Fed by an ingenious network of béals, canals, and diversions, these buildings constituted the economic heart of the region. Even today, this characterful residence retains all the soul of its history while benefiting from the modern comforts essential for a quality home.
The mill offers generous living spaces. On the ground floor, a vast warm living room enhanced by a fireplace invites conviviality, while an authentic Provençal kitchen equipped with a cooking range will delight gastronomy enthusiasts. A shower room, an independent WC, a laundry room, a superb wine cellar in the basement, and a pleasant stone terrace open to nature complete this space. A workshop of approximately 25 m² will allow enthusiasts of DIY, art, or creation to have a dedicated space. On the first floor, three comfortable bedrooms, a bathroom, and an independent 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 bright and functional architecture. It includes a pleasant living room with a wood stove, an equipped kitchen, as well as a spacious ground-floor master suite with a private shower room. On the first floor, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and an independent WC welcome family and guests in a comfortable setting. Reversible air conditioning ensures optimal comfort in all seasons.
