Old Mill Farm is a beautifully restored Grade II listed farmhouse set in about 1.2 acres of landscaped gardens, orchard, paddock and stabling — a rare package for families who want space, character and countryside life. The recent refurbishment preserves period features while delivering high-quality fittings throughout: bespoke kitchen with a blue electric Aga, multiple reception rooms with log-burning stoves, and generous bedroom suites with fitted wardrobes and a master en-suite.
Outdoor life is a major draw: formal lawns, a suntrap courtyard with a stocked fishpond, an orchard and a horse paddock with field shelter and hay store. A large attached barn with first floor and services presents real potential for conversion to an annexe or additional accommodation, subject to listed building consent. Ample off-street parking and good road and rail links (A1 nearby; direct rail to London from Retford) make the house practical as well as picturesque.
Be aware of material considerations: the Grade II listing will restrict external and some internal alterations and any barn conversion requires listed building consent. Heating is oil-fired, which may be less convenient and more expensive than mains gas for some buyers. The property is in Council Tax Band G and sits within a medium flood risk zone, both of which should be factored into ongoing running costs and insurance. Overall, this is a substantial, newly renovated period home for buyers seeking country living, equestrian space and conversion potential within a desirable village setting.
