Description
Holme Head House was originally built in 1865 along with Holme Head Works, a Victorian Cotton Mill which sits alongside the River Caldew. The iconic weir that powered the Mill, is opposite the house which was once the residence of the Mill Manager. Since then is has been used for various purposes, including as a Doctors Surgery, as a public house and restaurant (locals may remember 'The Bay'), and more recently as an Atelier where it is the home of a much cherished children's educational centre where little ones come along and enjoy a space that allows their imaginations to run riot!
The current owners purchased the near derelict building in 2012 and have restored and improved the property and grounds to a high standard. This Grade II listed property is now being offered for sale as either a commercial property suited to the restaurant and leisure industry (there is a fully equipped commercial kitchen in the basement with a 5-star rating from the FSA) , or for conversion to residential accommodation as either a single signature home or perhaps to luxury flats (subject to planning permission).
The internal accommodation is open plan on the ground and first floor levels reflecting the building's recent commercial uses, but conversion back to residential is easily done with the reinstatement of internal walls and with the original covings from each of the former rooms still in in place.
Moving outside, the property sits impressively behind brick walls with iron railings and gates. A formal rose garden leads to the front door of the main building, whilst to the side there is ample parking space in front of the non-listed single story extension. In the wooded area you will find multiple raised vegetable beds. The property also comes with significant riverside land which could be an exceptional asset for commercial or private buyers.
Viewings strictly by appointment with the agent as the facility is still used as a working business.
