Le Moulin

Located just two hours from Paris, Le Moulin is the perfect getaway in the heart of Sarthe Perche. Renovated by Lucas and Marine, this former mill – hence its name – retains only the stream running through the garden from its past activity. Yet, its charm is fully preserved: the almost untouched stone walls maintain the authenticity of the place, even though the entire structure has been reimagined with a modern touch. The result? A skillful blend of a bucolic, flower-filled garden and an interior with a captivating and impeccable modern style. The recipe works, as the instant charm is undeniable.

In this space, every element finds its perfect place, contributing to the overall aesthetic harmony, from vintage blown glass vases and coffee tables crafted from marble and raw wood to retro armchairs reupholstered with curly fabrics. Each piece is meticulously chosen by the owners, who comb through flea markets, garage sales, and antique websites for items that complement their minimalist yet distinctly designer style. The collection includes several designer pieces, such as a desk by Patrick Gingembre and armchairs by François Azambourg. Embracing a dynamic approach to their decor, nearly every item in the house is available for purchase. This unique strategy keeps the interior fresh and evolving and supports a more circular economy within the realm of interior design.
