Indre-et-Loire Estate Summary

Country living on a grand scale awaits you at Moulin de Malicorne, where you will enjoy the total privacy of two beautifully furnished homes (mill house w/ full kitchen and fireplace plus a separate petite maison), a swimming pool, picturesque fishing lake and numerous streams and waterfalls on 6.5 landscaped acres in the scenic Vallee de Courtineau. Although you’ll undoubtedly spend many of your days visiting the nearby world-famous chateaux, medieval towns, and wineries, you'll also want to explore and enjoy this exquisite and unique property. Swim under the stars in the private pool. Take the arched footbridge to our island and picnic under the willows. Or row through the lily pads with our geese trailing along behind. Moulin de Malicorne is a nature-lover's paradise and an ideal base for exploring the fascinating Loire Valley.

Moulin de Malicorne is located in the scenic Vallée de Courtineau. Just down the road there are ancient troglodyte dwellings, a 14th-century troglodyte chapel, and 4th-century tombs. The Moulin straddles the border of two charming villages--Ste. Maure de Touraine and St. Epain. Ste. Maure's town square is two miles away--an easy bike ride from the moulin. Famous for its goat cheese and its outdoor book fairs, Ste. Maure boasts several excellent restaurants, delightful bakeries, banks (with ATM machines), and a bustling open-air farmer's market every Friday morning. In town, you can explore the ruins of a 14th-century château. The Moulin is about half an hour's drive from major medieval towns, wineries, and chateau found in and around Tours, Poitiers, Chinon, and Loches, all with shopping and other modern attractions. And the entire region is filled with fabulous wineries, quaint villages, and world-famous chateau like Chenonceau and Villandry

Indre-et-Loire Estate Details

Private Pool and Lake: Our 37 x 18-foot pool is just behind and north of the house in a stone-walled, elevated garden with a view to the lake. It's just steps away from the back kitchen door. We have several lounge chairs and benches. An old-fashioned wooden picnic table offers the perfect place to dine outdoors. The lake is home to all sorts of fish, ducks, frogs and our pet geese, who have a winter shed on the island to escape the occasional fox. You can fish from the banks or take the boat for a leisurely row through the water lilies. If you like the feeling of mud squeezing between your toes and you don't mind 8' clams underfoot, hop in the water for a swim.

The Grounds: While the buildings have old-world charm, the real beauty of Moulin de Malicorne is the land itself. Fortunately for us, the man who bought the place years ago planted hundreds of beautiful trees and flowers on the property and diverted the river to create an acre-sized lake with an island in the middle. A quaint little bridge takes you there, or you can hop in our little row boat and paddle around the island for the full view of the lake's flower and tree-lined banks. Everywhere you go on the property you'll hear the sounds of birds and water. There are three tributaries that wind through the landscaped gardens creating several waterfalls. There's a small orchard behind the barn, and an enchanting forest with two rock quarries on the hillside. Every walk you take offers new discoveries. Benches and statuary are tucked into natural grottoes and perched at scenic overlooks throughout the property.

Chateaux: Many of the Loire's most fascinating chateau and medieval towns are within a one-hour drive of Moulin de Malicorne: * Amboise * Blois * Cheverney * Chinon * Langeais * Loches * Montpoupon * Montrichard * Rigny-Usse * Saumur * Tours * Villandry

Other Activities: basketball, goat farms, wineries, boating
