The mill is located at the end of a country lane and has wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. The water that powers the mill runs all the year and can also be used for the irrigation of the arable land.

Details:

Ground floor – Large open space accessed via double doors with window overlooking the valley. This is an area of the property that could become extra living space if needed. There is also a room under the mill that houses the metal wheel that turns the millstone above.

Fist floor – There are 2 entrances; the main entrance opens onto a lounge with three doors, two of which open onto two bedrooms. The 3rd door gives access to a central corridor with another bedroom on the right. At the end of the corridor is the dining room (with ferns). The kitchen is off the dining room and has an open fire to burn logs in the cooler months. The bathroom is off the dining room as is the access to the millstone with all its associated machinery still in situ. This floor has space for another bedroom and bathroom if needed.

Exterior – There is parking at the end of the cul-de-sac with the terraced garden area to the right. It would be possible to convert the ground floor room of the house into a garage/workshop. The path between the millrace and mill leads to the rear of the property where the border is defined by a stream. This is the stream that feeds the water race a little higher up the mountain. The terraced land has cork oak, olive, orange and other fruit trees. The soil is ‘terra preta’ ideal for growing fruits and vegetables. The roof to the mill doubles as a spacious terrace with great views of the nearby village and distant hills. The terrace would make a great alfresco dining area !

The nearby village has shops, cafés, ATM machine, church, sports pitch and exterior communal swimming pool.

This is a unique property that does not require a lot of work to make it wonderful home
