Description

This detached former mill house and windmill base, with a guide price of £200,000-£250,000, is a unique property located near the East Yorkshire coast. The property has a fascinating connection to J.R.R. Tolkien, the author of The Lord of the Rings, who is said to have been inspired by the area during his time stationed nearby in the First World War. The property consists of a former mill house, an adjacent cottage, outbuildings, and the base of a historic mill tower. The property requires significant renovation, but its character, space, and potential connection to Tolkien's work make it an attractive opportunity for the discerning buyer. The property is surrounded by good-sized grounds with views of the North Sea and open countryside, and is located in a rural area with nearby amenities in Withernsea, Patrington, and Hedon.
