AN EXCEPTIONAL ARCHITECT DESIGNED CONVERSION OF AN IMPOSING PERIOD CORNMILL ON THE EDGE OF A DESIRABLE VILLAGE SURROUNDED BY BEAUTIFUL COUNTRYSIDE
Stillington Mill is a fine example of an imposing Yorkshire Cornmill and stands above a former mill race created by a stream deriving its source from the River Foss. Constructed of attractive stone elevations under a slate roof the original mill is an imposing property with the accommodation arranged over a number of floors and was skilfully and imaginatively converted by renowned local architect Noel Hutchinson who succeeded in creating a modern family home out of a fine traditional building whilst at the same time managing to retain many of the original period features and working machinery of the mill. The property now offers extremely extensive well appointed and flexible living accommodation of quality and great charm. Of particular note is the fact that at the present time the southern section of the mill is utilised as a separate self contained annexe but is equally capable of amalgamation with the accommodation of the principal house itself.
The mill lies a short distance to the east of the attractive and popular village of Stillington, itself located in attractive countryside approximately midway between York and the southern edge of the renowned Hambleton Hills. The well known co-educational public school of Ampleforth College lies a short distance away. The village has a Post Office, shop, church, public houses, restaurants, primary school and a thriving sports club offering a wide range of facilities. Communications to the property are excellent with Stillington lying on the Helmsley road and being only a short distance away from the main A19 York-Teesside trunk road which may be joined at the attractive Georgian market town of Easingwold just five miles to the west.
