Description

No onward chain. This Grade II listed former mill house dates from the 18th century, with records indicating a mill has stood on the site for at least 400 years. It provides more than 3,000 sq ft over three levels, including living accommodation and substantial lower-ground storage, garage and practical areas. The property is offered for modernisation and reconfiguration, with its historic features forming part of the existing character. The main reception room has exposed stonework and timber beams, an oak floor, a mezzanine and a woodburning stove. Other ground-floor rooms include a sitting room with flagstone flooring and a stove, a kitchen with an oil-fired Aga, a scullery, a large utility room and a study with rear access. Upstairs, the current arrangement includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, with scope to consider a different layout, including three bedrooms, subject to the relevant consents and practical feasibility. The house sits within a plot of about 1.35 acres, mostly grass, with an orchard and land extending alongside Mill Brook. A separate gated access leads to a carport. Across the lane is a double-height barn on a hillside plot of roughly one third of an acre. Its full planning permission for conversion to a one-bedroom dwelling has expired; any future conversion would require the necessary permissions to be obtained again, and the hillside would need substantial landscaping. The property is just outside Wearne and about a mile from Langport, with local shops and services. Somerton is around four miles away, while Yeovil, Bridgwater and Taunton are approximately half an hour by car. Mains electricity and water are connected, with private drainage and central heating from a water-source heat pump. The listing reports very low flood risk and estimated broadband download speeds of up to 11 Mbps.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

80out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £425,000, this Grade II listed former mill is priced at around £142/sq ft against a local average of £314/sq ft, making the asking price a standout opportunity for acquiring a substantial, characterful property. The exposed stone, timber beams and stove in the central reception room provide a strong starting point, while the dated interiors offer scope to modernise and reconfigure. The 1.35-acre grounds, orchard and separate barn add further possibilities; the barn’s previous conversion permission has expired, so any future scheme would need the necessary consents.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen, bathroom and interior finishes while retaining and complementing the mill’s stonework, beams, flagstones and other historic features.
  • Explore reconfiguring the upstairs layout, subject to feasibility and any required listed-building consents.
  • Make more of the orchard and grounds, and investigate the separate barn’s potential subject to securing the necessary permissions.

Key risks

  • As a Grade II listed building, changes to the fabric and layout may require specialist advice and relevant consents.
  • The barn has unfinished, weathered areas and its previous conversion permission has expired; its condition, landscaping needs and any new consent requirements should be assessed.
