'Preservation is simply having the good sense to hold on to things that are well designed, that link us with our past in a meaningful way, and that have plenty of good use left in them.' - Richard Moe

This beautiful and historical building has been respectfully transformed to create an impressive home giving the space a second life. Retaining many original features, the property now provides contemporary and trendy living accommodation across three floors.

Denise White Agents Comments - A Unique Opportunity to Let a Piece of History.

This exceptional Grade II listed townhouse, available to let, is a stunning example of how historical architecture can be beautifully reimagined for modern living. Set within a converted silk mill, the property offers a rare blend of heritage features and contemporary comfort, creating a truly unique and versatile home.

Lovingly restored, the building retains striking original elements such as exposed brickwork, original timber beams, tall ceilings, double-height rooms, cast iron arched windows, and a grand double front door. These features are seamlessly integrated into a layout that provides generous, flexible living space across three floors.

Located in a highly desirable residential area just a short walk from the town centre, the character of the area is reflected in paved streets and stone pavements that speak to the building’s historical roots. The vibrant town centre offers a range of independent shops, pubs, restaurants, and a bus station, all just a 7-minute stroll away.

Inside, the property is flooded with natural light and offers a spacious, adaptable layout. The ground floor welcomes you with a grand hallway featuring a striking subway tile wall. An open-plan kitchen, living and dining area serves as the heart of the home, perfect for entertaining, with glass doors opening to a private outdoor space. A WC and pantry add extra practicality.

On the first floor, you’ll find two generous double bedrooms. The rear bedroom features floor-to-ceiling glass doors leading to a private balcony, while above it, a mezzanine gallery—accessible via folding doors—offers a flexible space ideal as a dressing area, office, or additional bedroom. A spa-style shower room serves this level with elegance.

The second floor hosts a further large double bedroom, enhanced by arched windows and a skylight, creating a bright and inviting space. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the upper floor.

Externally, the home includes a paved courtyard and an allocated parking space

History - Set in the heart of Leek’s historic silk quarter, Albion Mill is believed to be the town’s first purpose-built silk mill. Constructed in 1820 and extended 1887, it is now designated a listed building of special historic and architectural importance. The mill sits within a conservation area, a popular and genteel residential neighbourhood of 19th century weavers’ cottages, and grander Edwardian millowners’ houses

This development provides a variety of 2 and 3 bedroomed town- houses, and 3-4 bedroomed loft-style houses with private gardens, all with allocated parking.

A follow-on phase of new-build 3 bedroomed houses will complete a striking blend of contemporary architecture and renovated buildings - transforming a once industrial area into desirable, modern living spaces.

Location - Known as the 'Queen of the Staffordshire Moorlands', Leek is a former textile town with a long and fascinating history.

The unspoilt town centre offers a refreshing alternative from modern shopping malls and has a wealth of independent shops, including former silk mills housing antique and reproduction pine centres, as well as traditional and contemporary furnishings.

Delicious local produce can be found in abundance at traditional butchers, bakers, greengrocers, delicatessens and cafes. Leek is also home to speciality producers of condiments, confectionery, preserves, wine, whisky, craft beers and the traditional Staffordshire oatcake.

Traditional markets abound, both indoors in the beautifully restored Victorian Butter Market and outdoors in the Market Place, offering everything from general goods, antiques and collectables to fine foods and special 'Totally Locally' Sunday markets. And when it comes to wining and dining, you can choose from a tempting selection of cafés, real ale pubs and restaurants.
