GROUND FLOOR

Upon entering The Stable House through the charming arched door and windows, you're immediately welcomed by an abundance of character and warmth. The spacious entrance hall provides the perfect place to leave coats and boots after exploring the beautiful grounds. With exposed brick and flint walls, traditional pamment tiled flooring, and painted ceiling beams, the space blends rustic charm with practical functionality.

To the right, through a large archway and a gentle step down, lies the bright and well-proportioned kitchen. This inviting space features ample worktop areas, a generous walk-in pantry, a classic Butler sink, and an electric oven with induction hob. Whether you're enjoying a quiet winter’s evening or entertaining guests, this kitchen offers both comfort and versatility, complete with a spacious dining area ideal for hosting.

Adjoining the kitchen is the breakfast room—a delightful spot for casual dining while taking in picturesque views of the River Yare and the village beyond. The glass ceiling floods the space with natural light, while built-in cupboards provide useful storage. The wooden flooring in the kitchen transitions beautifully into the tiled flooring of the breakfast room.

Returning to the entrance hall, the sitting room continues the home’s rich character with exposed beams and a stable door leading directly to the garden—perfect for summer days. A wood-burning stove adds warmth for cooler evenings, and underfloor heating extends throughout both the sitting room and entrance hall. This is a wonderfully cosy and atmospheric space with views over the private garden, seating area, and towards the Mill.

Adjoining the sitting room is the garden room—a versatile, tactile space that works beautifully as a home office, snug, or family room. It enjoys views across the grounds and garden, with doors leading either to the communal seating area at the Mill or double doors out to the private garden. Also located on the ground floor is a plant room and a convenient W.C..

__________

FIRST FLOOR

Moving upstairs on the thoughtfully designed wooden staircase, you arrive at the first floor where the main bedroom is situated directly ahead. This generously proportioned room is a naturally bright space from the triple aspect windows, which frame beautiful views across the grounds. A striking traditional fireplace adds a touch of heritage charm, while the large stable door enhances the period character and connection to the home's rural setting.

Two further double bedrooms are also found on this floor, both offering ample space, making them ideal for family members or guests.

Completing the first floor is a well-appointed family bathroom and a separate family shower room. Additionally, there is access to two loft areas, providing a substantial amount of storage space.
__________

SECOND FLOOR

There are two separate second floor areas. Accessed via the main bedroom a staircase leads to a charming upper-level room currently used as an office. With its elevated position and characterful feel, this space could easily serve as an additional bedroom, dressing room, or creative studio—ideal for those seeking a private retreat within the home.

A separate paddle staircase from the first-floor hallway leads to another double bedroom. Tucked away and wonderfully private, this room enjoys peaceful views over the communal gardens and would make an excellent guest bedroom, teenager’s room, or quiet sanctuary.
__________

OUTSIDE

The Stable House is special as it is one of two properties at Bawburgh Mill with direct access to its own private garden from the house itself. The current owners had previously fenced the garden to separate it from the communal grounds; however, they later chose to remove the fencing to feel more connected and immerse themselves with the surrounding wildlife.

The private garden offers ample space for entertaining, children to play or for enthusiastic gardeners to enjoy, while still remaining easy to manage. A single garage/workshop and a wood store provide practical storage, and two barn areas offer further space—ideal for storage or as charming outdoor dining spots, perfect for submerging yourself in nature. The property includes off-road parking for two vehicles, with additional parking available in the communal areas.

Residents of The Stable House also benefit from access to several acres of beautifully maintained communal grounds, managed by the Bawburgh Mill Residents Association (further details available from the agent). These shared areas include expansive lawned areas, water meadows, and direct access to the River Yare—whether from a decked area or directly into the water for a peaceful trip in a rowing boat or punt, as enjoyed by the current owners over the years.

Additionally, the communal areas offer a shared kitchen garden and a decked seating area, providing the perfect setting to relax and soak in the fabulous, tranquil surroundings.

SITUATION

Nestled gracefully beside the River Yare, Bawburgh Mill is a striking historic watermill with roots stretching back to the Domesday Book. Jeremiah Colman, of the Norfolk Colman’s Mustard family, started his flour-milling career here in 1802 and had a home at Bawburgh Mill. The present red?brick structure, rebuilt in the late 19th century, served as a pulp and later corn mill before ceasing operations in 1967, after which it was sympathetically converted into stylish residential dwellings.

Bawburgh is a highly sought-after village located just a short drive west of Norwich, offering the perfect balance of rural charm and convenient access to city amenities. Nestled along the River Yare, the village is known for its picturesque setting, historic architecture, and strong sense of community. Local highlights include The Kings Head, scenic walking routes, and the renowned Bawburgh Golf Club. With excellent transport links, nearby schools, and easy access to the A47 and Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital, Bawburgh remains a desirable location for families, professionals, and those seeking a tranquil yet well-connected lifestyle.
