Step inside this four-story windmill, probably Britain’s most unusual commuter home
A 300-year-old former windmill with a four-acre garden, a unique home, is on the market for £485,000, having the advantage of a doable commute from the capital, with direct trains to King’s Cross.
The price of The Mill in Walton Highway, near Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, is actually the asking price of a two-bed flat in Crystal Palace. But this special home dates from the mid-18th century.
The 22ft living room, master bedroom and bathroom are in a conventional single floor extension, but inside the windmill’s tower you’ll find the real joy.

A quirky but at the same time charmy kitchen, with a 18ft diameter ground-floor, is fitted with all mod cons, and up the spiral staircase lies the 17ft diameter sitting room-cum-dining area.
At the second floor you’ll find the most serene isolation, while at the top is a comfortable 12ft bedroom offering truly harmony.
The house has grounds of almost four acres, including gardens, ornamental pond, fenced paddocks, a soft fruit garden, potting shed, greenhouse and garage.
The Mill is for sale through William H Brown, Homes and Property reports.
