Former water mill in Shropshire for sale
A former water mill built of stone in the late 18th century has come onto the market near Ludlow in Shropshire
Broadstone Mill is a water mill originally built of local stone in 1794 and situated close to the River Corve. The property has developed over the years into an excellent country house which still retains many of the original mill workings, visible on two floors, and with pretty countryside views.
The accommodation could adapt to a number of family lifestyles: there are five reception rooms in total, two in the original mill, and the lower ground floor also includes a useful office. The first floor has four bedrooms, principally in two suites and two further bedrooms, plus a family bathroom.

Outside, to the rear, is a raised terrace overlooking the grounds, which have been carefully maintained and which have River Corve in the foreground. The stone outbuildings have potential for conversion, and the property also comes with a fenced paddock and a timber stable. The grounds come to around 4.2 acres.
The Corvedale is a beautiful area of Shropshire which runs south west from Wenlock Edge, and there is easy access to the towns of Ludlow and Bridgenorth. To the north is the world heritage centre of Ironbridge.
The guide price is £850,000. For further information please contact Strutt & Parker on 01584 873711 or visit www.struttandparker.com.
