2 Built circa 1880, this traditional B listed watermill which consists of mill house, the former mill and numerous outbuildings offers a fantastic opportunity to live in an extremely private and rural setting but close to local transport links. The mill house itself offers excellent family accommodation which is formed over a traditional two storey layout. Rettie & Co are of the opinion that early internal inspection is absolutely imperative to appreciate the accommodation and opportunity that is on offer. The overall accommodation extends to sitting room with wood burning stove, super-sized dining kitchen, utility room and modern shower room. First floor accommodation has master bedroom with en suite bathroom and two further double bedrooms. The mill is a two storey building with three larger apartments on each level which still has many of the original mill machinery intact, including the water wheel. Subject to planning approval, there is fantastic potential to develop this further. The main outbuilding is a single storey structure which contains a stable, garage, dairy, byre, and creamery. There is detached piggery and a large storage barn with timber walls and a pitched slate roof. The total area of the grounds is approximately 1.5 acres which includes a large grass area on the far side of the river which could be utilised for grazing or garden. Situation Folkerton Mill is a former mill and therefore is set in an extremely attractive riverside location with excellent views around the surrounding countryside. Folkerton Mill is located close to Douglas Water in Lanark further to the east. The surrounding South Lanarkshire countryside is renowned for its natural landscaping and also benefits from excellent commuter links to the main cities of Central Scotland and Northern England. Locally Lanark offers a broad selection of retail, educational, and leisure facilities while Glasgow provides an abundance of extra facilities as would be expected of such a city. Lanark also has a new retail park, railway station, a golf course, a wide range of clubs, societies and a variety of active sporting clubs. There are also large equestrian centres at nearby Lanark and Lesmahagow. The area offers convenient road links throughout Central Scotland with the M74 junction 11 about 1 mile away and providing excellent road links to the M8 in the North as well as in a Southerly direction to the South West of Scotland and England. 3
