ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF VESOUL, A FORMER MILL BETWEEN THE RIVER AND THE COUNTRYSIDE
Just a few minutes from Vesoul, Le Puits du Moulin tells a story that began in the 18th century, set in a landscape where water still frames every view. Behind its stone facades, this approximately 440 m² property offers a spacious home, designed as much for family life as for entertaining guests. Seven bedrooms, beautiful reception areas, a veranda overlooking the garden, and an established bed-and-breakfast business are all set within an estate spanning more than 1.5 hectares. An orchard, a vegetable garden, pastures, a swimming pool, and terraces extend the home all the way to the banks of the Durgeon River.
AN OLD MILL IN TUNE WITH THE DURGEON
You must travel through the countryside to the outskirts of Vesoul to discover the Puits du Moulin. An 18th-century residence nestled in a landscape of water and greenery, it possesses that special aura found in homes whose history was written long before our time. The Durgeon River runs alongside the property. Its flow sets the pace for the estate, complements the gardens, and serves as a reminder of the site's original purpose. Once a mill that was converted into a restaurant in the 1990s, the building began a new chapter in 2011, when its owners undertook to restore it and transform it into a bed-and-breakfast. Today, the stonework, exposed beams, and historic spaces harmonize with more contemporary touches. Successive renovations have accompanied the house over the years: kitchens, bathrooms, woodwork, paint, and, more recently, the pool have been redesigned with care to preserve the spirit of the place. Spanning approximately 440 m², the spaces offer a particularly appealing flexibility of use. Here, the house can continue to welcome guests while also fully reclaiming its role as a family home.
A HOME MADE FOR LIVING AND HOSTING
The section dedicated to the guest rooms has a life of its own. Upon entering, a reception area with a bar sets a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The first guest room, measuring 21 m², features its own shower room and private bathroom facilities. The dining room, air-conditioned and heated by a Godin stove, naturally extends the time spent around the table. A semi-professional kitchen, a laundry room, and several preparation and storage areas discreetly support daily activities. Upstairs, three bedrooms?each extended by a mezzanine?can each accommodate four guests and feature their own shower rooms with separate restrooms. The existing layout thus accommodates twelve people in four bedrooms and also lends itself to a different interpretation of the spaces, particularly as a vacation rental. The private area fosters a more intimate atmosphere. A staircase of wood and wrought iron leads to the fully equipped Schmidt kitchen, the living-dining room, and the bedrooms. An additional room can serve as an office or bedroom depending on needs. The master suite combines an air-conditioned bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a shower and bathtub. Another bedroom also has its own private bathroom. Next is the veranda, about twenty square meters in size, which opens widely onto the garden. Light floods in generously, and the changing seasons become part of the scenery. Three wood-burning stoves supplement the oil-fired heating system, while a reversible air-conditioning system serves several rooms in the house.
A HECTARE AND A HALF TO EXTEND YOUR DAYS OUTDOORS
Surrounding the house, 15,641 m² create a true estate. The terraces?including two sheltered areas?offer a variety of ways to enjoy the outdoors: having lunch in the shade near the house, heading to the pool in the afternoon, extending an evening around the large brick barbecue, or simply watching the light change across the garden. The pool is an integral part of this setting. Renovated in 2024, it features a manually operated dome. Further on, the property transitions into an orchard, vegetable garden, pasture, and wooded garden. A greenhouse, a woodshed, a well, a pond, and a rainwater collection system complement this outdoor lifestyle. There is also room for a few horses in the pastures. The nearby bike path offers another way to explore the surrounding countryside. Vesoul and its amenities are just five minutes away, while the train station provides access to major rail lines. This proximity gives the mill a unique balance: the countryside remains ever-present, yet the town is immediately accessible. The bed-and-breakfast, open year-round and now complemented by a table d'hôtes, already offers a glimpse into one of the many possible ways to enjoy the property. Its spacious layout suggests other possibilities: a large multigenerational home, a country residence, a place to gather family and friends, or a project combining living space with hospitality.
