Description

Indigo Mill is a detached property situated within the village of Brough, offering generous and versatile accommodation arranged over three levels.

Brough enjoys a strong sense of community and provides a range of local amenities including a village shop, primary school, outreach post office, hotel and public house. Secondary education is well catered for by the highly regarded Kirkby Stephen Grammar School and Appleby Grammar School. The popular market town of Kirkby Stephen, approximately five miles away, offers a broader selection of everyday facilities including a supermarket, banks, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, public houses, hotels and sporting amenities.

The property was a former indigo dying mill, producing indigo dye from local flowers. The property is believed to date back to 18th century, it has more recently been a family home for the same family for 45 years.

The accommodation extends to approximately 167.6 sq.m. (1,804 sq.ft.), the accommodation is well proportioned and practically arranged.

The ground floor provides welcoming and well-balanced living space, including a generous lounge serving as the principal reception room, a separate dining room well suited to both family dining and entertaining, and a well-proportioned kitchen. A useful utility room adds further practicality and storage. Downstairs, the basement is currently used as workshop and storage space, this is a great addition to the property and could be further developed. It would be a great garage, workspace, studio or even independent accommodation, subject to planning permissions.

To the first floor, there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a central landing providing access to all rooms.

Externally, the property benefits from an enclosed and low-maintenance courtyard garden. The main area is concrete, offering ample space for outdoor seating and entertaining. A raised planting bed runs alongside a traditional stone boundary wall, providing opportunity for shrubs, flowers or a small kitchen garden. Mature trees and established hedging create a pleasant and sheltered backdrop, enhancing both privacy and character. A side entrance door and external lighting add further convenience.

To the front of the property, there are two off-road parking spaces.

Indigo Mill presents an excellent opportunity to acquire an interesting and spacious family home or a well-positioned investment property within a well-served village setting.
