This former industrial and flour mill comes with around 2,200 m2 of floor space, comprising two generous buildings, built on a land surface area of 1,710 m2.
Situated in the heart of a typical Gironde village, this unusual building complex offers peace, tranquillity and views over the harbour, offering free rein to artists and the projects of passionate visionaries.
Historically, the mill received wheat from the surrounding area and from all over the Centre-West Atlantic region and turned it into flour, which was shipped to the Medoc, Bordeaux and abroad.
The first building currently houses antiques and art exhibitions on the ground floor, a flat (approximately 125 m2) on the first floor and a loft (approximately 267 m2) on the second floor. The origin of the building and the conservation of certain period features were used as the guiding principles for the refurbishment of these two living spaces, gently enhancing the beauty of the building's industrial architecture.
The second building to be refurbished comprises three floors of around 225 m2 each. It has potential to create a commercial space on the ground floor, three flats on the first floor, three duplex flats on the second floor, as well as a courtyard garden with an external lift shaft serving both buildings.
The geometric and architectural plans for this renovation project have already been drawn up. Planning permission has been obtained and the co-ownership regulations are ready.
The property also includes outbuildings, an annex (former office building), a hangar with boxes currently for rent (former sound storage warehouse) and an outdoor courtyard with plenty of parking (former unloading dock).
Lovers of restoring old buildings will have the pleasure of continuing to bring life back to the rest of this historic flour mill in a unique and unusual way.
Possibility of purchasing all or part of the property.
This property is not subject to co-ownership and the commercial areas and areas outside the flats are not subject to an ECD.

Buying a Property in France
1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.
The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.
Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.
2. Paying the Deposit
Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.
3. On Completion
Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.
During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
