A unique three-sided house in the British countryside has hit the market for £700,000.
The ‘charming’ converted 19th century mill was once a weaver’s house and overlooks the wooded valley of the River Ashburn on the outskirts of Ashburton and within the Dartmoor National Park.
Belford Mill Cottage is a triangular-shaped four-bedroom home split across four floors with a farmhouse style kitchen and family room on the ground floor with an inbuilt wood burner.
Real estate agency Sawdye & Harris is advertising the home as a ‘one-of-a-kind’ property which ‘oozes charm and character’.
The unique 19th century home is triangular-shaped and was once part of the mill complex and a weaver’s house
The main bedroom features structural details which highlight the history of the home, with wooden beams and floorboards and sweeping views of the woodland from the bed

The ground floor boasts views of the cottage gardens from the kitchen and dining room, while the first floor features a sitting room, one guest bedroom and an en suite shower room.
Moving up to the second floor is two more bedrooms and a bathroom, and the third floor boasts a main bedroom suite converted from the original loft.
The third floor also features an oversized en suite bathroom which overlooks the garden and woodlands from the deep bathtub.
The estate agency said in the advert: ‘Quirky touches include the wrought iron balustrade leading to the main bedroom suite. This is a stunning space with exposed timber beams, timber flooring, lovely and light and enjoys a truly superb aspect down the valley.’

The unique shape of the house is also evident in the interiors, with a triangle shaped bathroom that overlooks the gardens below
Whilst the property may not have been designed with corner sofas in mind, everywhere you look there are reminders of the building’s past – from the timber beams to the sash windows.
A sweeping driveway lined with ‘impressive’ pillars leads to a tucked away car port and shed, while the gardens were carefully curated and well-thought out by the previous owners, the agency said.
‘The gardens have been much improved by the current owners and have been designed with tucked away seating areas, shaped borders and a glorious array and variety of plants and shrubs, mature apple tree and further evergreens complement this rural idyll,’ the agency said.
Belford Mill Cottage is on the market for a guide price of £700,000.
