Accessed from a private lane, this home forms part of a Grade II-listed former watermill in Mobberley, Knutsford. Thoughtfully reimagined into a warm and distinctive home, it is surrounded by greenery and bordered by a gentle stream. The property blends the rustic character of its heritage with contemporary detailing that unfolds across three floors.
The Space
Approaching from the rear garden, the home reveals an idyllic setting: red brick and a slate roof, with white-painted timber-framed windows, a south-facing garden laid to patio and lawn, and views onto surrounding greenery. Entry to the main living space is via a metal staircase that ascends to the middle level - the heart of the home.
Stepping into the kitchen, you're met by natural light cascading from multiple skylights above, along with a glazed door and bifolding windows. Bespoke timber cabinetry runs the length of this galley-style kitchen, adding warmth and contrast to the blue porcelain kit-kat tiles, while polished concrete worktops and flooring lend a soft finish. A breakfast bar at one end creates a sociable perch below a clever architectural cut-through between wall and staircase that allows light to travel through from above. Integrated appliances include an oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave, and wine cooler, with generous storage throughout.
Just a step below, the dining area signals a subtle shift in tone - original timber floors, exposed beams, and cottage-style windows evoke the building’s heritage, while a wood-burning stove sat on black geometric patterned tiles bridges the old and new. Around the corner, the sitting room continues this warm character, with a second wood-burning stove set on traditional brick. A cloakroom and WC add practicality to this level.
Ascending to the top floor are two en-suite bedrooms. The principal suite unfolds across two levels, beginning with a dressing and lounge area with built-in storage. Beyond double stained-glass doors lies an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, bath, warm porcelain tiling, and a skylight above. A short staircase rises from the dressing area to a cosy sleeping space tucked into the pitch of the roof.
The second bedroom also includes built-in storage and an en-suite bathroom, finished with grey terrazzo-style porcelain tiles, a wood-framed vanity unit, walk-in shower, and a skylight that brings in both natural light and ventilation.
On the ground floor, a third en-suite bedroom opens directly onto the garden through bifold doors. With its walk-in wardrobe and warm-toned bathroom featuring terrazzo-style tiling, this level lends itself equally to guest accommodation, a home office or studio.
Also on this level is a versatile multi-purpose room, also opening to the garden via bifold doors - ideal as a gym, playroom, laundry room, or additional storage. Further dedicated storage rooms sit adjacent, adding to the home’s practicality.
The home offers an opportunity to add further value, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
