House hunters are being given the unique chance to live in a windmill after one of Britain's 'biggest' has just come on the market. The Maud Foster Windmill, which is more than 200 years old, is now up for sale for £650,000.
Two of the windmill's seven storeys are currently home to a shop and a flour business, with a former café located on the first floor.It was built back in 1819 for Isaac and Thomas Reckitt, who ran it up until 1833 when it was forced to close due to several years of poor harvests. Estate agents Bruce Mather are offering the property for sale for £650,000 for just the mill, or £998,800 with the five-bedroom mill next door included.
"The Maud Foster is one of the largest operating windmills in England being 80 feet tall to the cap ball, still working and grinding flour to this day. "To the back of the building there is a staircase which winds up several floors with bedrooms off it to an incredible loft style penthouse which is fabulously decorated and some wonderful features, bragging character throughout, currently arranged with three bedrooms."
