Set in the sought-after village of Wicklewood, this converted brick corn windmill dates from the 1820s and occupies approximately 0.75 of an acre. The house combines distinctive circular living in the mill tower with generous traditional rooms: a round lounge with original millstone hearth, an extended kitchen/diner with skylight and bifold doors, a family room with fireplace, and a versatile study. Mature gardens, a sweeping gravel driveway and a garage complete the outside space, all framed by uninterrupted farmland views.
Accommodation is practical for family life: four bedrooms (three with en‑suites), a top‑floor dressing/play room reached via the mill stair, utility room and ground‑floor WC. The property is presented in good decorative order with double glazing and fast fibre broadband providing modern convenience while retaining period character throughout.
Buyers should note this is an older, uninsulated granite construction with oil‑fired boiler and a private septic tank. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the walls are understood to have no insulation, so further energy efficiency improvements could be required. These are typical considerations for historic conversions and offer scope to add value through sympathetic upgrades.
Located just over three miles from Wymondham, the property benefits from local village amenities and strong schooling options nearby, including outstanding primary and secondary provision. For buyers seeking a rare, characterful home with substantial outdoor space and excellent privacy, this windmill conversion offers a distinctive country living opportunity.
