Presenting a remarkable opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed former mill house, nestled within approximately eight acres of stunning grounds that include a lake, stream, and picturesque gardens. This property has not changed hands in over 40 years and offers significant charm alongside ample potential for renovation and expansion (subject to planning permissions).
Barford Mill features an attractive stone façade complemented by lead-lined windows, enhanced by wisteria vines that add character to the home. Historically part of a trio of mills situated along the Barford stream, this residence has retained many original elements such as exquisite wood panelling, panelled doors, parquet flooring, exposed beams, and inviting open fireplaces.
The expansive accommodation includes a grand entrance hall adorned with intricate oak joinery leading to spacious reception rooms with period features. While it has been well-loved and maintained over the decades, there exists great potential to modernise the living spaces and perhaps create more versatile room layouts.
The kitchen retains its period-style cabinetry alongside an oil-fired AGA but could benefit from updating to meet contemporary standards. The first-floor principal bedroom is breathtakingly bright with vaulted ceilings and captivating views; however, improvements throughout the additional bedrooms and bathrooms could enhance comfort and utility.
Outside, the serene landscape presents an exceptional canvas for further development or enhancement of leisure amenities while ensuring privacy within a tranquil setting. With its rich historical context and beautiful surroundings in Churt village — renowned for its natural beauty — this property represents an extraordinary chance for both investors and families seeking to create their ideal residence in a unique location.
