Formerly a productive mill for Littleham, this property was sympathetically refurbished in a true hands-on style in 1978 by the current owners and presents prospective buyers with a unique character home rich in charm and history. It offers a tremendous opportunity for fine country living in superb surroundings, set within approximately 6.75 acres.
Littleham Mill provides versatile accommodation with the potential for easy dual-occupation living, making it ideal for a dependent relative or independent teenager. With four reception rooms, five bedrooms, and two bathrooms, it is a substantial and spacious family home.
DELIGHTFUL VIEWS & STUNNING SOUTH-FACING BALCONY
The views from the property across your own landscaped gardens and grounds are truly sublime.
Offering many of the modern-day conveniences we have become accustomed to, this home blends old and new beautifully. Features include stunning original natural stone, elegant fireplaces with wood burners, exposed timber beams, stone quoins, and reclaimed timber flooring.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a large entrance hallway - an excellent space for removing muddy boots and coats. This leads seamlessly into the kitchen, with a utility room conveniently tucked behind. The kitchen itself offers a range of built-in storage cupboards, ample preparation space, and a sink perfectly positioned to enjoy the view.
The kitchen flows nicely into the sitting room (which could be made open plan). The lounge enjoys views over your own land and surrounding farmland, complemented by a natural stone fireplace with a wood burner, creating a wonderful focal point.
This leads through to the dining room, which features double doors opening onto a sunny patio and continues into a further lounge. The doors provide an ideal setting for alfresco dining and summer entertaining. The lounge is again a spacious room with stunning views and benefits from a south-facing balcony just off it.
On the first floor, there are five bedrooms in total, along with two bathrooms. The layout, with the dining room interconnecting to separate staircases leading to the first floor, lends itself perfectly to dual occupancy or provides an ideal arrangement for children to enjoy their own side of the house.
On the lower ground floor, there is further potential for additional bedroom accommodation, although it is currently arranged as an office and hobbies room. This area could function as a completely self-contained unit, with its own access leading via steps directly to private parking. It offers excellent potential for a variety of business uses or holiday letting. For further information, please contact the Bideford team.
AVAILABLE AS A WHOLE OR IN SEPARATE LOTS
The gardens have been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed, creating a true haven for wildlife, with a wide variety of plants, flowers, trees, shrubs, and herbaceous borders.
There are several seating areas throughout the garden to enjoy sunlight throughout the day. The patio, with doors leading into the dining room, creates a seamless indoor-outdoor flow - perfect for casual al fresco dining or summer barbecues.
Often, properties with views are exposed to the elements; however, Littleham Mill offers quite the opposite. It enjoys a sheltered and incredibly private position, while still benefiting from stunning views across your own land, gardens, and grounds.
The garden wraps around the property and features a large pond with a central island, serving as a striking focal point. Set within its own woodland, a charming pathway leads you around the entire pond.
Lot 1: The house, gardens, and grounds extending to approximately 2.14 acres.
Lot 2: The house, gardens, and grounds together with a further approximately 4.61 acres, split into two paddocks. The additional land benefits from separate access and mainly comprises level pasture bordered by a stream, with services nearby.
