Our Summary
- In 1904 the Mill was converted to a Sawmill which served the local community for many years but by the end of the 20th Century the Mill was in need of urgent renovation
- The present owner purchased the Mill in a derelict state in 1995 and had a vision and great determination to rebuild, renovate and preserve a vital part of our heritage
- A carpeted staircase from the reception hall leads down to the lower ground floor basement with door to outside and is currently used as a utility/boiler room with large storage area although suitable for a variety of uses including potential to create further living space/annexe accommodation
Description
This historic sawmill, situated on the edge of a popular Exmoor village, offers a unique opportunity to own a lovingly restored property with a rich heritage. The sawmill, which dates back to the 14th century, was converted into a working water wheel-driven mill in 1904 and has been painstakingly restored over the past 25 years by the current owner. The property includes a three-bedroom house with stunning views over farmland, a two-storey barn with forge, workshop, and studio/museum, as well as a 1920s former garage. The house features a spacious reception hall, sitting/dining room with woodburner, and a kitchen/breakfast room with high-quality appliances. The property also includes a basement with potential for further living space or annexe accommodation. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with inset shrubs and trees, and a gravelled and stone terrace with a leat running through. The property is a true gem, offering a unique blend of history, charm, and functionality, and is sure to appeal to anyone with a passion for heritage and restoration.
