Description

The present mill replaced the old mill in 1827 when the original was demolished to make way for the new dam and Knypersley Pool. This breath-taking three-storey building of solid dressed sandstone and slate construction was milling until its retirement after World War Two.

This Grade II listed corn mill still has many of the working features forming part of this characterful home. Its location is a wonderful setting next to Knypersely Pool with all its wildlife and tranquillity.  

The present owners have added to the property but still retaining its character. There is full scope to convert the lower ground floor to make use of the already substantial living accommodation, if required. 

The access to this property is is via an electric vehicle access shared with the neighbouring property down a track leading to the attractive garden and grounds of the mill which extends to approximately half an acre or thereabouts on the bank of the pool.  Steps lead up to the main door which allows access to the reception dining room with access to the recently fitted quality kitchen with integrated appliances, doors to lounge, large bedroom with balcony and shower room.

Stairs lead down to the central floor which has three bedrooms, bathroom, cinema/living room and utility area.

At basement level (ground level) this is presently used as storage and is split into two rooms and has vast potential to convert to further living areas which opens onto the rear lawn garden and countryside beyond. 

Externally, the property has a sweeping driveway with turning circle, a detached garage for a small car and various entertaining al fresco areas in the garden or the bank of the pool to enjoy those quiet moments. 

This home is a one off and viewing is the only way to appreciate the character of the property which incorporates the original workings of the mill and the opportunity to add  your dreams and ideas to this grand design.
