A rare Grade II listed former mill house set on approximately 1.49 acres with direct River Granta frontage and extensive period character. The main house extends to about 4,239 sq ft with five bedrooms, two principal reception rooms, an Aga kitchen, cellar space and many surviving historic details — offering an immediate family home with scope for sympathetic modernisation.
The site includes a high-quality stable conversion, a double garage with a room above, and a barn with planning consent to create four-bedroom ancillary accommodation (Greater Cambridge Planning Portal 22/03774/HFUL). The barn is currently linked by an internal stair to a first-floor billiards room; the overall layout gives clear potential to retain as a single large household or deliver separate units for ancillary use or sale.
Environmental and practical benefits include an air source heat pump and underfloor heating in the stable conversion, double glazing and an EPC rating of C. The huge, mature gardens contain a former mill race, tennis lawn, vegetable garden, former ice house and access to listed sluice gates — rare outdoor amenities in a well-connected village location close to local shops, schools and Cambridge.
Important considerations: the building’s Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and affect consenting and maintenance costs. The property lies in a medium flood-risk area beside the river, and the council tax banding is described as quite expensive. Buyers should allow for listed-building consent processes and specialist maintenance when budgeting.
