Tudor Cottage at Lye Mill is a rare, substantial country home set in an elevated, peaceful hamlet with open farmland views. The main cottage combines traditional beams and farmhouse-style rooms with generous reception space, while an adjoining Grade II listed mill and a range of outbuildings offer scope for storage, workshops or conversion (subject to consents). The plot is very large and well-landscaped with mature trees and private lawns, ideal for family life or a small rural enterprise.
The property is presented with many charming original features—quarry-tiled floors, feature fireplaces and exposed timbers—alongside practical upgrades such as triple glazing. However, the listed mill is in need of improvement and its listed status will complicate any alteration or redevelopment plans. Services include oil-fired central heating, mains water and electricity, and private drainage via a shared septic tank (buyers should verify arrangements).
Practical considerations: the house has three bedrooms and one main bathroom, which may feel limited given the overall house size. Heating relies on oil with a boiler and radiators, and council tax sits at a higher Band F. These are important ownership costs to factor in alongside any restoration or conversion work to the outbuildings.
For buyers seeking space, privacy and period charm, this property offers significant potential. Investors or families wanting a character home with conversion upside will value the extensive plot and outbuildings, but should be prepared for listed-building constraints, maintenance, and upgrade works before any major change of use.
