Summary - WEST MILL LUCKWELL BRIDGE WHEDDON CROSS MINEHEAD TA24 7EH
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Secluded Exmoor former mill with river frontage and extensive paddocks.
Four double bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms
Set in a private valley in the heart of Exmoor National Park, West Mill is a characterful former mill offering spacious family accommodation across three floors. The house retains period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and stone walls — and is complemented by extensive gardens, river frontage, stables, outbuildings and large paddocks ideal for riders or small-scale grazing.
The ground floor provides two reception rooms and a kitchen/breakfast room with traditional features and direct garden access; four double bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms are arranged over the upper floors, including an attic bedroom with generous proportions. Practical elements include oil central heating, double glazing installed post-2002 and parking for several cars off a private track.
Buyers should note a number of practical considerations: heating is oil-fired, drainage is private, and broadband speeds are very slow (Ofcom predicted c.17 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload). External stone walls are likely uninsulated and upgrading thermal performance would be advisable. Historically treated Japanese knotweed was recorded on the riverbank; no visible growth is currently evident but buyers should request further information.
This property will particularly suit buyers seeking a rural lifestyle with equestrian potential or substantial outdoor space, and those prepared to invest in energy upgrades and ongoing maintenance to fully realise the home’s potential. Its secluded setting and direct access to bridleways make it a rare find for countryside living within reach of local village amenities.
