Spacious former mill with barn conversion potential and secluded gardens in Exmoor village..
Chain free freehold former mill in Exmoor National Park
A former overshot mill set on the edge of Exford within Exmoor National Park, Lower Mill Farm blends historic character with substantial space. The stone-built house retains original mill features and two welcoming reception rooms, while three bedrooms and a family bathroom provide comfortable, flexible accommodation for downsizers seeking a peaceful rural base.
The attached two-storey stone workshop/barn is a major value driver: it includes plumbing and original mill cogs and offers genuine conversion potential (subject to planning and building regulations). Large gardens, a patio and a secluded water-feature area with a historic mill pond create private outdoor rooms for relaxed living and entertaining.
Practical realities are straightforward: the property is chain free and freehold, with off-street parking and no flood risk. However, it sits in a remote hamlet-style location with average mobile signal and very slow broadband, and is in a nationally protected park where conversions and alterations require planning consent. The barn will need formal permissions and likely renovation work to become living accommodation.
This is an authentic, spacious country home for someone who values historic features, outdoor space and village life, and who is comfortable managing the planning, utilities and refurbishment considerations that come with an older, character property.
