A superbly restored Grade II Listed mill house with almost an acre of gardens in a highly sought-after Dartmoor setting. 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 0.9 acres of gardens and plenty of original features.

Situation - The Old Mill is located in the peaceful hamlet of Ponsworthy, nestled in the spectacular West Webburn valley, in the heart of Dartmoor.

Comprising of a handful of properties, the hamlet is known for its unique historic buildings and the abundance of wildlife, and rare flora and fauna. The Old Mill, together with The Bakehouse and Wheelhouse across the lane, served as the bakery and wheelwrights for the local area up until the mid 19th Century. Close by is the picturesque ford and clapper bridge known as The Splash.

Description - The Old Mill is a charming Grade II Listed mill house, set in the heart of Dartmoor, which has been superbly restored by the current owners and renovated to provide highly attractive accommodation. There has been no expense spared refitting and modernising the house to the highest of standards, whilst retaining much of the original character including exposed stone walls, timber beams and original fireplaces. The remaining parts of the original mill have been painstakingly restored, including the wheel, which still adorns the side of the property and is encased in glass as a spectacular internal feature.

On the ground floor there is a welcoming sitting room, which has an impressive stone fireplace, fitted with a wood burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with stylish bespoke kitchen units including a central island, a Belfast sink, an AGA and other high quality integrated appliances including a wine cooler. The dining room adjoins the kitchen in an open-plan layout, with the wonderfully restored mill wheel encased in glass.

Upstairs there is a large master bedroom which benefits from a stylish en suite shower room. There are three other double bedrooms, plus an additional fifth bedroom, which is accessed via its own staircase. A well-presented family shower room is on the first floor, with a second shower room on the ground floor.

Outside - To the front, there is an attractive cobbled stone parking area, while the property has a carport to the side; together offering ample parking for multiple vehicles. The Old Mill has extensive gardens to the side and rear of the property, totalling approximately 0.9 acres, which consist mainly of lawned areas that lead down to the beautiful River Webburn.
