This Grade II* listed Mill House, with elements dating back to the late 18th and early 19th centuries, represents a unique opportunity for renovation within a historically significant property. The main house features beautiful mellow red brick and stucco detailing beneath a clay tile and slate roof. Its spacious interiors combine the old-world charm of traditional mill architecture with modern conveniences. The heart of the home is a striking kitchen designed for contemporary living, complete with twin islands that seamlessly flow into a timbered sitting area and an expansive dining space that benefits from triple aspect windows.
The principal bedroom suite offers scenic views over the millstream and pond and includes a cozy sitting area, an upscale bathroom, and dual dressing rooms.
Potential for investment extends beyond the main residence; the Old Stables, granary, modern barn, and offices each present opportunities for conversion or enhancement (subject to local consents). The property features extensive grounds with landscaped gardens bordering the River Chelmer, creating an idyllic setting ripe for further development.
The two additional traditional farm buildings at the edge of the courtyard require modernization—ideal for those looking to invest in restoring characterful structures. Furthermore, ample parking is provided by several garages and outbuildings. Located just outside Hartford End, this property enjoys proximity to picturesque countryside walks while still being convenient for access to nearby villages and larger towns like Chelmsford, making it suitable for both personal enjoyment and future investment.
