Built in the 1800s and updated in 2019, this stone-built estate feels like a private mini-hamlet, comprising an authentic Windmill, the Miller?s Cottage, and a converted barn.

Set on a manageable plot of approximately 1,000 sqm, the estate is smartly designed to give each building its own independence with dedicated private terraces and garden pockets. It is the perfect size for an easy-maintenance holiday home or a boutique rental project?offering all the character of historical stone without the burden of heavy garden upkeep.

The first floor features a dedicated shower room with a toilet. The second floor reveals a charming double bedroom. The third and top floor accommodates a cozy second bedroom with twin beds, which holds the estate's most breathtaking secret: from this vantage point, you can contemplate the rolling countryside stretching all the way to the horizon, where the blue line of the ocean appears in the distance. A truly mesmerizing and poetic view that changes with the coastal light. It includes its own small outdoor terrace.

A dedicated private parking space for the three properties is conveniently located on the grounds.

Consultant's note: ?A poetic property for lovers of authentic stone houses. The 2019 renovation provides a solid and welcoming base, ready for you to add your own personal style and final touches. The top floor of the windmill, with its distant ocean views, provides a moment of pure magic. A lock-up-and-go historic retreat, easy to manage, between the countryside and the ocean.?
