Steeped in history and brimming with character, Kentraugh Mill offers a truly unique opportunity to acquire a substantial period home in the peaceful village of Colby. Originally dating from 1768 and thoughtfully extended over time — including a significant addition in 2000 — this charming former miller’s residence provides a superb blend of heritage features, generous space, and modern eco-conscious updates including solar panels and a wind turbine.
Set within beautifully established gardens with blooming borders and mature lawns, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with a driveway providing ample off-road parking, additional hardstanding, and access to a detached garage.
Internally, the home is arranged over three floors and offers versatile family living. The entrance vestibule opens into a welcoming hallway with understairs storage. To the front, the family room – once the original miller’s cottage – features a dramatic vaulted ceiling, dual aspect windows, and a striking Chollagh fireplace with a large slate mantel, adding instant charm and warmth.
To the rear, a large open-plan sitting/dining room enjoys views over the garden, complete with a log burner and double doors opening onto the outside space – perfect for entertaining or cosy evenings in. A separate study with bay window and a kitchen/breakfast room provide further practicality, alongside a spacious utility/boiler room and cloakroom with WC.
The first floor features two large double bedrooms, both with generous proportions and countryside outlooks, a family bathroom with bath, bidet and overhead shower, plus an additional shower room and WC.
The top floor includes two double bedrooms, a WC, access to a fully boarded loft via pull-down ladder, offering storage.
Outside, the gardens are a true highlight – thoughtfully planted with flowering shrubs and enjoying a lovely aspect. In addition to the oil-fired central heating, the home benefits from two wood-burning solar panels wind turbine
