#mill conversion

[hometoursandotherstuff]

This is one of the nicest old mill conversions I've seen. They built around the original working parts of the 1856 mill in Lone Rock, WI. 2bds, 2ba, 4,388sqft, $849,900.

Not only did they build around the original components of the mill, but they've also incorporated architectural salvage pieces, like the frame around the double doors looks like it was a mantel from a huge fireplace.

This is so pretty.

Through those double doors there's a lovely, roomy vintage bath.

Nice dining room. They arranged furniture and salvaged pieces to act as walls and separations. All of the columns and ceilings are original.

The kitchen is lovely. It doesn't look like a fitted kitchen, yet all of the pieces go together perfectly.

Salvaged vintage drainboard sink.

Clever, interesting way they arranged the pieces.

Then, along the side they made a delightful sunroom.

Cozy, and it gets lots of sun.

On the 2nd level, there's a roomy, light-filled studio.

The primary bedroom is very large and there's an old fan suspended from the ceiling.

They fashioned the shower under an original part of the mill. That's so clever.

And, look at the grinding gears.

I love to see the mechanisms.

This bedroom has 2 beds in private frames with curtains.

There's plenty of room for gym equipment.

Plus, there's an entire TV room with room to spare.

A huge fairly new barn also serves as a garage.

It's a very large space.

In the back there's a ramp to the 2nd level.

It's cavernous.

Plus, there's another garage on the house.

And, another outbuilding. 2.39 acre lot.

I love converted mills, but only if they incorporate the original equipment, and this is a type of mill I've never seen before- it's a corn mill, built in 1810 in Naas, Leinster, Ireland. 6bds, 2full, 2.5bas. $1,793,478

They converted the building into a home using museum techniques to preserve the inner workings. Am I lovin' that!

It does feel just like a museum. Look at how they preserved some of the ancient artifacts in glass.

I like the stone floors. Wonder if they're original. This is the ground level, and there are 5 floors.

1 of the 2 full baths is spacious and has wonderful large beams.

This home office is set among the workings of the old mill, too.

This pretty bedroom is on the ground floor.

And, so is this cute room.

What a beautiful living room. Look at the iron wheels. This is incredible.

This is stunning.

What a beautiful kitchen. Look at the original floors.

The kitchen is so large, it has a counter, and a big table, but there's also a large formal dining room.

On this floor, there's a cozy family room.

This bedroom has a nice big closet and an en-suite.

This building is very big. These stairs on the upper floors are spiral, but they look wider than the usual modern styles.

They primary bedroom is very large and has an en-suite.

What a pretty courtyard.

Beautiful grounds.

This equipment looks current. It must still turn the wheel.

There's a river and fruit trees on the property.

The lot measures 3.01 acres.

Beautiful converted 1900 historic mill in Quakertown, Pennsylvania has the original mill stone on the lawn, that was used to crush and grind the wheat and grains for bread. 4bds, 3ba, $885K.

I do like the entrance hall- beautiful leaded glass door.

Through the door is a vast main living space with a long stone fireplace and what looks like another millstone for a coffee table.

One step up is a very large dining room area off the kitchen.

The large eat-in modern country kitchen.

Cute half bath with a barrel sink.

Interesting how they put a wall over the stairs.

The primary bedroom is huge and look at the fireplace and stone wall. The ceiling also looks original.

One of the other bedrooms. Smaller, but a good size.

The full baths are disappointingly plain.

The home is listed as a single family but there's another big living/dining room and a kitchen up here.

These are the original hand hewn and joined beams.

There are so many large rooms, I'm wondering how much it costs for heat in the cold Pennsylvania winters.

There are rooms of work areas. The home is huge.

The water trough that drove the mill is still here.

The stucco top coat on the house is wearing off and exposing the stone. Looks like a picture.

The garden is lovely.

The mill stream flows past the large redwood deck. There's a total of 4.51 acres of land.

Welcome to The Flour Tower. It's a 5 story, single family, converted 1910 former grain mill in Bridgeport, Washington. 4bds, 8ba, $945K.

First things, first. It has an elevator, b/c it's so high.

The "Grand Salon," as they call the first floor, houses the shop, garage, green house, half bath, family room & additional kitchen.

There's also a wine room.

The family room is nice. Looks like there's a walk-in freezer there on the left.

The downstairs kitchen and deck on the waterfront.

Very large sun room also on the water.

If you'd rather take the stairs.

This must be the primary suite. It's huge.

The en-suite.

Closet in with the water heater.

Large laundry room.

The main kitchen is big, too.

Down a few stairs is a dining area.

And, on the other side of the kitchen is the formal dining room.

Plus, a formal living room. This house is so large, you can decorate it a lot better.

Spacious pantry.

Perfect views of the Columbia River.

This secondary bedroom is large and it even has a little hair salon.

Ascending to the next level, they've got a TV area on the landing.

There's a separate apt. over the garage.

So, this could be rental income.

A long staircase goes down to a dock on the river.

The river bank property measures .67 acre.

In love with this historic grist mill in St. Johnsville, New York b/c it has ALL the old equipment. It’s a store, as well as a home, with several other buildings on the property. 

Isn’t the store cute? There’s also a B&B across the street. 

Powder room.

Look at all this wonderful stuff.

The kitchen is gigantic.

Love this - eating amongst the equipment.

Cute bedroom- look at the antique barber chair- it’s actually a salon.

More sleep space.

The upper floor bath.

TV room has 6 TVs for some reason. 

Love it.

River beside the mill.

The bed and breakfast across the street.

This beauty comes with it.

Isn’t this pretty for guests?

Cute country kitchen.

Look at this bedroom & bath. I wouldn’t rent this one out.

What a gorgeous B&B.

The barn on the property.

And, a little cabin. What a property.

This is wonderful- it’s an 1830 Stone Mill in Frenchtown, NJ and it still retains its beautiful form in its re-imagined purpose as a substantial retail/studio space and 4 one-bedroom loft apartments. It’s really a unique property. The retail/studio is on the first floor and the 4, 1bdrm. apts. are on the second.

The store is lovely. 

Look at the original wide mill floors. It appears that at least these 2 apts. have bedrooms in lofts. 

The ancient walls in the living room are gorgeous.

The kitchens are all redone and are natural light wood with slate tile floors.

I like the decor in this bedroom. 

There are only 2 of the apts. pictured and they’re both just so pretty. 

This one has full stairs while the other one has more rustic, ladder-like stairs.

The kitchen is done in the same materials.

This loft bedroom is a little larger and has room for a sitting area.

The walls in the remodeled bath blend in beautifully with the aesthetic.

What a great building.

Living in this converted old mill in Pennsylvania is like living in a museum. 

The mill has several floors, and the bottom is full of the owners’ antique collection. I don’t know what kind of mill it was, and it looks like all the industrial equipment was removed.

This appears to be a collection of tube radios or something. 

This beautiful old fireplace really works. 

The blue kitchen cabinetry is fabulous. 

The bathroom looks like an old laboratory, and look at the tub.

In this room is an extensive collection of magazines.

Three nice bedrooms on the lover floor.

The master, on the top floor, faces the beautiful window that’s seen on the outside. What a place.

This isn’t a home, but it’s got so many fabulous features. It’s a company’s office in a converted mill. 

This place would be great to convert to a home and a workspace. 

It’s certainly large enough. 

The Board Room. Once, I posted an apt. that had one of these shooting target posters as art, too, and some people were offended. Gee, they’re actually for law enforcement practice. 

But this. What a great living room this would be. The whole building would make a fabulous home.
