A rare Grade II listed water mill converted into an expansive four-bedroom family home, set in a waterside rural location with very large gardens. The conversion retains historic character—exposed timbers and variable ceiling heights—while offering contemporary comforts such as fibre-to-the-premises internet and smart-home systems. The principal reception areas include a glazed entrance, large lounge/dining space and a Dayrooms-fitted kitchen; four bedrooms all have en suites, giving strong family flexibility.
Practical outbuildings and adaptable lower-ground space enhance the property’s appeal: a double garage with storage above and a lower ground floor with independent access currently used as office, gym, workshop and storage. These areas offer scope for further use subject to listed-building and planning constraints. Mains services are connected but heating and hot water are supplied by an oil-fired boiler and drainage is to a private treatment plant.
Buyers should note material constraints alongside the positives: the home sits in a high flood-risk zone, is Grade II listed (which will complicate alterations), and has solid brick walls likely without modern insulation. Council tax is expensive and the main fuel is oil. Those factors affect running costs and future works, though the property’s high standard of presentation reduces immediate refurbishment needs.
For a buyer seeking a distinctive country residence with strong indoor-outdoor living, generous entertaining space and adaptable ancillary accommodation, this mill provides uncommon scale and character. Families or purchasers wanting a semi-rural lifestyle with good digital connectivity will appreciate its combination of heritage and modern conveniences, provided they are comfortable with listed-property responsibilities and the flood risk.
