The Grade II listed Victorian Gothic building by Edward Pugin was converted by Weston Homes to offer loft-style apartments and family homes as well as new-build properties, including 11 two-bedroom apartments in the Great Hall with vaulted ceilings, ornate stone windows and original tiled flooring. The new homes blend with the original buildings and share the 20 acres of woodland grounds as well as a cricket pitch and gym. Apartments start at £295,000.
A historic mill conversion in Staverton, Devon (right), on the banks of the River Dart, provides a range of properties ideal for holiday use and rentals. Grade II Staverton Mill, built about 1790, offers eight highly original two and threebedroom properties, each with an individual layout and original features. All have dual-aspect living spaces and several double-height vaulted ceilings.
Storage spaces will be a particularly welcome asset for owners who want to store personal belongings while letting the property.
Local attractions include the Staverton steam train.
Prices start at £299,000 for a two-bedroom apartment.
