description
First built in 1827 as part of the Irish Linen Industry, "The Old Scutchmill" is one of those properties best described as "often sought yet seldom found" and we are delighted to have been instructed to bring this wonderful property to the market for sale. Used as a working Mill up to the 1950s and then as a Farm building, the property gradually fell derelict until it was purchased and sympathetically restored by the previous owners Gordon and Elma Woods striking a delightful balance between the best of Old and New.
The spacious well planned four bedroom four reception living accommodation has been designed to retain as many of the original features as possible yet to be a good fit with the demands of a modern lifestyle and is further complimented by the generous gardens bounded on two sides by the Articlave River. A choice rural location in the heart of the North Coast minutes drive from Castlerock and all the main commuter routes completes the package.
This is a once in lifetime opportunity to acquire the home of your dreams and is a property which can only be truly appreciated on internal inspection so an early appointment to view is highly recommended
