This country mansion with 17th Century WATERWHEEL and swimming pool is on sale for less than £1million
The Old Mill at Llancarfan in the Vale of Glamorgan, South Wales, is dripping with historic charm and contemporary luxury after a painstaking modern makeover
A MANSION on sale for under £1million is no run of the mill property as it comes complete with a corn mill waterwheel.
The Old Mill dates back to the 17th century and has been transformed into a luxury pad with an outdoor swimming pool.
But its standout features include the original waterwheel attached to the outside of the stone building.
Machinery used in the mill has also been kept inside the property and now stands proudly in the walls as a work of art.
The mill in Llancarfan in the Vale of Glamorgan, South Wales, was still a working corn mill as recently as 1938.
After undergoing a stunning makeover, the six-bed home is now on the market for £975,000.
Part of the 'mill race' - the water channel built to carry the water to the wheel to make it turn - also still remains at the house.
And the new tenants will also be charmed by exposed stonework and chunky ceiling beams, which can be found in rooms spread over two floors.
The ground floor provides a vast open plan living area with beamed ceilings and a large stone fireplace.
Buyers will also be treated to views over the garden terraces and a plunge pool.
The master bedroom is on the first floor - including an en suite shower room and double height ceiling with solid original ceiling beam rafters.
A Juliet balcony overlooks the terraced garden and the rolling Welsh hills.
Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom can be found on this first floor.
The village near the Old Mill has a pub, historic church, primary school, tennis club and a village hall.
Estate agent David Lakin, of Brinsons & Birt, said: "There is a lovely sense of history as you walk around property.
"There is a real sense of fusion created by the stylish modern additions and open-plan family living mixed with the history of the former mill."
