Property description

As you approach up the gravel drive between shielding, mature trees, this wonderful complex of converted old barns with their deep, sweeping, pantile rooves tells you that this is no ordinary home. Impressive, hefty, timber beams support the floors above and the feeling of quality craftsmanship and solidity steeped in agricultural history hits you immediately. The open plan design, the hallway with its solid stone floor, leads freely into the other living spaces: the sitting room area with solid oak flooring to one side with its large brick fireplace and log-burner, then more comfy seating beckons on the other side before you enter into the kitchen. A lovely feeling of luxurious space is coupled with homeliness. An unusual feature of the building is the many arrow-slit windows which have been glazed in an inspired way with reclaimed glass blocks giving them a contemporary, or more aptly, a retro twist.The magnificent setting of Tindall Mill is enhanced by both young and mature trees all around. A splendid red beech, a majestic old oak and a huge cherry laden with fruit following on from its beautiful white and pink blossom, willows, walnuts and ash trees stand proud amidst younger neighbours. The wonderful extensive garden is a huge asset to the property. The lawn was originally a two acre field which they used for grazing horses when the owner first came here, and could so easily be reinstated as such. Scope for Further Development:Twenty years ago the owners bought the property with approved plans for converting the barns into four dwellings, but wanted to keep it as one large, private, family home. A potential buyer may want to consider this as a big investment opportunity, or they may want to create an annexe, or just add to the number of bedrooms here. The huge cart sheds and extensive outbuildings which are at present either empty or used for storage, could be very satisfactorily converted into living accommodation. Location: The house sits near to the centre of the village, the church bells a reminder of community life, and less than a five minute walk away is the golf club with its leisure centre, bar and restaurant. BARN SANCTUARY: \"In the Fenland village of Tydd St. Giles lie expansive rooves of old pantiles. These stretch over and protect a residence both charming and select; a place now called Tindall Mill in a setting private and tranquil. From Georgian barns in sad dereliction transformed to home of great distinction. There is yet more potential to further this - the residential, or for those more inclined to house creatures of an equine kind.\"
