Description
This important sale presents a truly unique opportunity to purchase a most attractive and individual converted mill on a generous site of circa 2.25 acres with associated land amidst some of County Down's most beautiful countryside.
The mill buildings date back to the 18th Century. In the early 1990's they were rescued and, with the sympathetic design by Massey White Architects (which were originally used in the scutching of flax and the stoning and drying of corn), along with the workmanship of respected local craftsman Noel Killen, were converted into what is now a fabulous country house offering stylish accommodation. Much of the original character has been retained and marries well with more contemporary features such as the extensive glazing and modern staircase in the reception hall. Outside the extensive gardens have been beautifully landscaped in an informal style and contain many specimen trees and shrubs. The pond, meadow and woodland are a haven for wildlife and the additional sheltered field would be ideal for those with equestrian interests.
The surroundings are equally attractive and include a band of mature deciduous trees as well as the Ballynahinch River which flows closely by.
The Kilmore area outside Crossgar is a sought after residential location and appeals to those seeking country living in beautiful surroundings with the convenience of a host of amenities.
To begin to appreciate all that The Long Mill has to offer, early viewing is highly recommended.
