Toad Hall is a striking Grade II listed former mill set directly on the River Nene, offering dramatic riverside living and private mooring. The building combines substantial stone construction and exposed period features with recent renovations, presenting generous principal rooms and uninterrupted outlooks over open floodplain and countryside. With around 2,066 sq ft across multiple levels, the house feels much larger than a typical village home.
Currently arranged as two double bedrooms (originally three) with three bathrooms, the property includes a feature kitchen-diner, riverside terrace/boardwalk and a large attic with vaulted ceiling that could be converted subject to listed‑building consents. There is separate garage parking, but outside amenity is limited to a modest riverside garden/terrace rather than extensive grounds.
Important practical points: the location carries a high flood risk and the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and require consents for many changes. Council tax is above average. The house has been updated and presents well, but prospective buyers should commission surveys and check insurance/flood-mitigation and consent implications before committing.
This home will suit buyers seeking characterful waterside living and historic charm — ramblers, boating enthusiasts, or purchasers wanting a distinctive country residence within reach of Peterborough and Stamford. It is less well suited to those seeking large private grounds or unrestricted redevelopment potential.
