Outbuildings include a garage/workshop, the original dairy, and a stone stable across the stream with potential for conversion (STPP). The house is double glazed, has gas central heating, and was recently re-roofed. A truly exceptional rural home with space, privacy, charm, and lifestyle appeal.

A Brief History Of Levisham Mill - Tucked away in the wooded valley of Levisham Beck within the North York Moors National Park, Levisham Mill holds a rich and fascinating history that echoes the area’s rural heritage. The mill dates back to the 18th century, when it served as a working corn mill, harnessing the natural power of the beck to grind grain for the surrounding farms and local community.

Once part of the Duchy of Lancaster estate, Levisham Mill played a vital role in village life, with generations of millers living and working on site. The mill continued to operate well into the 19th century, before eventually ceasing production as modern milling techniques and transportation changed rural industry.

In the decades that followed, the mill buildings were sensitively converted, blending original features such as stone walls, exposed beams, and the old mill race with the comforts of contemporary living. Today, Levisham Mill stands not only as a beautiful home, but also as a reminder of the area's agricultural past, a place where history and nature exist in perfect harmony.
