This historic Grade I listed windmill, originally constructed in 1819, stands as a distinctive piece of Boston's heritage, situated along the picturesque banks of the Maud Foster. The property offers a unique blend of residential and commercial space—currently functioning as both a home and a thriving business. The windmill features seven stories and five sails, showcasing its operational capacity while presenting an appealing canvas for renovation.
Presently, the ground floor accommodates two workshops, with the first floor previously utilized as a café. With an innovative approach and potential planning permissions (subject to local authority consent), there is significant opportunity to expand or repurpose these spaces. This could include transforming the mill into a wedding venue, guesthouse, or restaurant, enhancing its commercial prospects further.
The upper levels reveal a charming loft-style penthouse that features three well-appointed bedrooms, each reflecting the property’s character and history. This living space not only provides comfort but also allows for creative redesign to enhance both personal enjoyment and rental appeal.
Additionally, the property's outdoor space includes a rear garden and ample parking at the front, catering to both residents and visitors alike. Whether you envision maintaining its current dual purpose or pursuing new ventures within this iconic structure, this property represents a compelling investment opportunity for those ready to preserve its legacy while adapting it for modern use.
This beloved windmill is now looking for new stewardship to embrace its next chapter. Viewings are available by appointment through Bruce Mather Estate Agents.
