About this property
Superb and rare opportunity
17th Century watermill
Detached Mill house and barn
Grade II listed
Fantastic potential
Summary
Offered with no onward chain, this is an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a historic landmark estate with exceptional potential. Nestled in Lower Gelligroes, the location is within easy reach of local amenities.
Description
This exceptional and exceedingly rare opportunity offers the chance to acquire a distinguished detached 17th-century Grade II listed residence, accompanied by a charming barn conversion-formerly a candle workshop-and an impressive separate Grade II listed water mill. Steeped in history, the estate is celebrated as the former home of Artie Moore, the pioneering wireless operator who, in 1912, famously intercepted the sos signal from the rms Titanic.
While requiring sympathetic restoration and subject to existing leasehold restrictions, the property presents outstanding potential for both residential and commercial use. The principal house features a generous reception room, a comfortable sitting room, a main kitchen, a secondary kitchen area, and a study leading into the adjoining workshop. The workshop itself includes a utility area, two WCs, and a mezzanine level, providing excellent versatility. To the first floor, five well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.
The separate Mill building is arranged over two floors, comprising two ground-floor rooms and two first-floor rooms, with the original mill workings remaining intact, offering a unique heritage feature. The estate has a picturesque setting with surrounding land providing ample scope for further enhancement subject to the necessary consents.
Positioned within the tranquil setting of Lower Gelligroes, the property enjoys convenient access to local amenities.
