Lots to mill over with this conversion full of character

Catcune Mill is a characterful conversion which captures the eye.

Providing spacious and flexible family accommodation over two floors, the house stands in its own private gardens and is surrounded by open countryside yet is within 12 miles of Edinburgh city centre.

The old Catcune Mill has been lovingly restored

A flour mill was established at Catcune in 1620 and this had grown to become a substantial operation by the mid 19th century. The mill finally closed in 1979 with the older mill buildings being subsequently converted to residential use.

Catcune Mill is one such building sympathetically restored in 2001 it now provides very comfortable and exceptionally spacious (over 6500 sq ft) family accommodation.
