This week’s featured property is said to be “unique” and “breathtaking”.
The three-storey grade two listed converted corn mill boasts four bedrooms and original features throughout.
It is on the market at offers in the region of £650,000.
Knypersley Mill, Judgefield Lane, Brown Edge, has three reception rooms, two modern bathrooms, a top-of-the-range contemporary fitted kitchen and the potential to convert the basement level.
It occupies an approximately 0.5-acre plot with al fresco entertaining areas in an idyllic setting next to Knypersley Pool.
The mill replaced the old mill in 1827, when the original was demolished to make way for the new dam and Knypersley Pool. Constructed of solid dressed sandstone and slate it was milling until its retirement after World War Two.
It still has many of the working features, forming a characterful home.
The present owners have added to the property but it still retains its character.
Access to the property is via an electric vehicle access shared with the neighbouring property down a track leading to an “attractive” garden and grounds of the mill, which extend to approximately half an acre or thereabouts on the bank of the pool.
Steps lead up to the main door, which allows access to the reception dining room with access to the recently-fitted quality kitchen with integrated appliances. There are doors to the lounge, a large bedroom with balcony and a shower room.
Stairs lead down to the central floor, which has three bedrooms, a bathroom, a cinema/living room and a utility area.
The basement (ground level) is presently used as storage and is split into two rooms and has potential to convert to further living areas that open on to the rear lawn garden and countryside beyond.
Outside, the property has a sweeping driveway with turning circle, a detached garage for a small car and various entertaining al fresco areas in the garden or the bank of the pool.
According to the estate agent’s sales details: “This home is a one-off and viewing is the only way to appreciate the character of the property which incorporates the original workings of the mill and the opportunity to add your dreams and ideas to this grand design.”¬
