Hewish Mill, North Devon

HEWISH MILL



Under our client’s ownership they have significantly refurbished the property.



Hewish Mill is an attractive former water mill dating back to 1751 and still has many of its original features. The front door opens into an entrance hall, which leads to a large kitchen and breakfast room with Aga and large food pantry. There is an office and boot room to the east of the house. The left side of the entrance hall leads to a large dining room featuring the original water wheel.



Hewish Mill is currently configured to provide three large en suite bedrooms, two of which have their own dressing rooms. The dressing room of the second bedroom was formerly a third bedroom and could be easily reinstated. The fourth bedroom can be used by the Wheelhouse. See floor plan.
