This historic property is a highly individual detached family home situated on the outskirts of Rattery. The building was built in stages – the initial structure was a Devon longhouse – this was built around the time of King Henry VIII (we believe earlier than the 17thC suggested in the listing), around the 18th century a three story watermill was added, and in early 19th century a rear extension was made to the longhouse, as
well as a linhay (storage for horse drawn vehicle) and three stone pigsties which are now used as log stores.

The current owners have extensively renovated the property internally and externally in the last year to provide a comfortable family home with spacious and light accommodation over the three floors. In the main part of the building, there are six bedrooms and three reception rooms, two of which are on the ground floor with a fabulous dual aspect sitting room on the first floor. There is a good size, bespoke kitchen / breakfast room with many of the old Mill features still in place in accordance with the listing. There is also a separate one bedroom self-contained cottage providing useful ancillary
accommodation or a separate office area to suit one’s requirements.

Rattery Mill sits within a generous plot of 2.82 acres. This comprises a large parking area with space for numerous cars, a large level formal
garden and a sloping wooded area to the far side of the road which leads to Rattery (see map). The
property sits on the edge of the Harbourne River which has trout (no one has formal fishing rights – so no anglers have any rights to fish there) and there is also a separate indoor swimming pool and spa building.

The formal garden and parking area make up 2 acres of land and there is a separate area of woodland to the far side of the Rattery road which totals 0.82 acres of gently sloping
woodland. The main garden is predominantly level and extends away from the Mill, hugging
the River Harbourne to the side. As the garden rises to the far side there is a natural area of woodland with trails inset and an Indoor Swimming Pool and Spa building. To either side of the Mill there are pretty courtyard areas and access leading up to a large parking area with storage in the form of buried shipping containers. There is ample parking for numerous vehicles here. As a point of interest, the railway viaduct was designed and built in 1847 by I K Brunel and
widened circa 1892 - 1893.

Services: Mains water, Electricity, oil fuelled heating system, Underfloor heating, Septic treatment plant.

Rattery Mill is situated in the picturesque and popular village of Rattery, one of Devon’s oldest villages where the Church House Inn is reputed to pre-date the medieval church. Access to the A38 is close by linking Plymouth and Exeter where it joins the M5. At Totnes, some 7 miles away, is the mainline railway station with direct connections to London Paddington. Totnes is the commercial centre for this part of Devon and offers an excellent range of schools, shops, supermarkets, restaurants and inns.
