13th century mill between Vannes and Lorient
294 miles from Paris (194 of which are on motorway) between Vannes and Lorient.
65 minutes by airplane and 190 minutes by TGV train from Paris.
Situated on the banks of the river Auray in a commune of 4,000 inhabitants in the Morbihan department.
In a region close to the stage of the battle of Auray that brought the Breton Succession War to an end, where the canons, with the agreement of John de Montfort, victor of the battle and thus new Duke of Brittany, received authorization to be paid an income for the mills with which to contribute to their restoration.
This 13th century mill, one of the few to have survived over the years in this country, has approx. 3,767 sq ft of living space and 0.86 acres of land along the banks of the river Auray. Fishermen much appreciate the numerous sea trout at the foot of the large 65 ft wide waterfall.
Inside: a 667 sq ft lounge with a huge period fireplace, 355 sq ft dining room, 301 sq ft kitchen. Upstairs: 6 bedrooms with bath and shower rooms.
Vast 560 sq ft cellar.
The charm of the place is accentuated by a large terrace on the edge of the waterfall.
A site worthy of a Breton legend. A wonderful setting for a professional activity comes to mind given the layout potential and the geographical situation.
Close to Auray and all major routes, the mill is in an ideal situation. The Countess of Ségur who lived not far from here was not, therefore, mistaken.
