Unfolding like a page from a medieval chronicle, this rare property sits just 25 minutes from Limoges, on a private island in the River Vienne. Five old flour mills — with centuries-old water rights — stand in harmony with the landscape, their story beginning as early as 1224.
The nearby medieval town, with its UNESCO-listed collegiate church, offers shops, culture, and a lively community. Surrounded by the Millevaches Regional Natural Park, the setting blends heritage, nature, and accessibility. Limoges airport is only 35 minutes away.

Beyond the history, the property offers an enchanting lifestyle. Gardens fringe the river’s edge, while rocky outcrops and rushing water create a natural soundtrack. With its blend of raw potential and timeless beauty, it is ideal for a visionary project that honours the past while shaping the future.
The main mill retains its paddle wheels, gears, and oak-floored reception rooms. The four smaller mills, each with unique character, await restoration. Gardens, rocks, and flowing water complete this evocative riverside scene.
