Only 250 metres from the belfry, and on the banks of the canal that runs through the historic centre of Douai, Le Moulin des Augustins offers an exceptional living setting.
Nestled at the foot of shops and schools, the Moulin enjoys an unobstructed view of the Scarpe canal, with its Bruges and Venice-like atmosphere, and is bordered by one of the most pleasant pedestrian promenades in the town centre. Its strategic location makes it an ideal starting point for exploring Douai and enjoying its many attractions.
Le Moulin des Augustins is a landmark example of the industrial architecture of the XIXth century in Flanders. With its cast-iron beams and exposed roof frames, its solid wood floors and its brick and dressed-stone façade, the building embodies the authenticity and charm of the industrial era. Quality materials, parking spaces and optimised insulation are planned, ensuring a harmonious blend of good taste, comfort and durability.
Each apartment enjoys a view of the canal, and the scheme offers 90% of works eligible for the Déficit foncier or Denormandie schemes.
Just a few hundred metres from the École des Mines and the Saint-Jean de Douai preparatory class, the apartments are expected to offer excellent yields. Between 2024 and 2027, 7000 new jobs linked to electric vehicles are due to be created in Douai, while the town is in severe need of housing...
Very attached to its traditions, Douai has far more than a monumental belfry, as it counts no fewer than 45 buildings protected as Monuments Historiques. On every street, the town offers remarkable buildings, including the Hôtel de ville, the Palais de Justice, the church of Notre-Dame and the Musée des Beaux-Arts.
Douai finally benefits from an exceptional geographical position at the heart of Europe. The town is served by the TGV, with 17 daily journeys to Paris taking just 1h09. In 20 minutes, Lille is very easily reached by car or by TER regional train throughout the day.
