For Sale
"A striking and truly spacious Grade II listed former watermill in the village of Narborough, offering approximately 5,974 sq. ft. (STMS) of highly flexible accommodation over three floors."
The Property
The Mill is a striking and spacious Grade II listed former watermill, beautifully converted and restored to create a remarkable village home beside the River Nar.
Set over three floors and extending to approximately 6,000 sq. ft. (STMS), this is a property with real presence, character and individuality. From the moment you step inside, the scale of the building is immediately felt. Generous rooms, historic traits, exposed mill features and flexible living spaces combine to create a home that feels both impressive and highly individual.
The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged, with a substantial kitchen and dining room forming the natural heart of the home. There is excellent ancillary space too, including a utility room, cloakroom, studio and gym, while retained mill machinery offers a rare and evocative reminder of the building’s working past which gives the house its unmistakable identity.
On the first floor, the accommodation opens into a magnificent sitting room, measuring over 30 ft. (STMS) in length, where the proportions of the building can be fully appreciated. Also on this level is an office, a bathroom with sauna, a bedroom and a dedicated cinema room, which could also serve as an additional bedroom if required.
The second floor provides a selection of four further bedrooms, including a show-stopping principal suite. A roof terrace adds another unexpected and highly appealing dimension as a private place to step outside, enjoy the surroundings and take in the atmosphere of this unique setting.
For the current owners, what they have loved most is simple: the feeling of the building, the space and the convenience. Their favourite places within the home are the sauna and dedicated cinema, both of which speak to the lifestyle The Mill offers.
Externally
Outside, the setting is closely tied to the landscape and history of Narborough. Walks in either direction along the River Nar are a particular joy, offering immediate access to countryside. The village itself has continued to evolve over recent years, while still retaining the charm and character that make this part of Norfolk so special. From here, King’s Lynn, the wider west Norfolk countryside and the county’s much-loved beaches are all within easy reach.
The Mill is not simply a large home; it is a rare piece of Norfolk history, reimagined for modern living. With its flexible layout, memorable features and riverside village setting, it offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a home with scale, soul and a story to tell.
