Nestled at the end of a secluded private drive, this Grade II Listed property, Moat Mill, presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking for a characterful family home with substantial renovation and investment potential. Set amidst over five acres of mature wooded gardens and paddocks alongside river frontage, the property retains many original features from its 17th-century origins, including striking architectural elements from its past as a Victorian watermill.
The home offers four to five bedrooms, alongside multiple reception areas and essential living spaces such as a kitchen and utility. While the current owners have diligently maintained the property over their three-decade ownership—updating roofs, bathrooms, electrics, and heating systems—the interior could benefit from modern updates to fully realize its potential.
The main living area showcases exposed water mill mechanisms that add historical charm. There’s potential for sustainable living through the installation of off-grid utilities, dependent on necessary planning permissions.
Outside, the grounds boast various features including wildflower meadows and an abundance of mature trees fostering local wildlife. Interested buyers may want to explore converting existing structures into usable spaces or re-establishing stables in the paddock area. The property's tranquil setting is further enhanced by its proximity to local amenities in nearby Mayfield and good transport links to larger towns and cities.
This property not only serves as a residence but also offers significant prospects for enhancing its facilities and functionality while preserving its rich heritage.
