Grade II listed characterful mill, situated in a tranquil, rural location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, about 1.5 miles from the south western coast of the Isle of Wight. Excellent range of outbuildings and 2.9 acres.
The property sits within 1.5 miles of Brighstone with its range of local shops, doctor’s surgery and primary school.
The existing mill was built in around 1750 and is believed to be the only working watermill of its type on the Island. The current owners have extensively refurbished the living areas of the property, along with parts of the watermill, including a new bedroom and bathrooms.
On the ground floor is the large south facing family kitchen with Aga, drawing room with open fire, sitting room, dining room with wood burning stove and study (planning permission has been granted to replace the study with a larger reception room).
To the rear of the property is a terrace which overlooks the grounds and waterfall. The mill pond sits to the east and there are extensive lawned gardens with mature trees, providing an attractive and secluded setting. There is an extensive range of outbuildings including a games room and space suitable for storage, stabling or garaging.
