About this property

An immaculately renovated Grade II listed Georgian house in a stunning riverside setting

Located on the River Kennet, this Georgian house dates back to 1800. The ruins of the original Georgian paper mill are still found within the grounds of the property. It was purchased by our clients in 2011 and is the former home of the singer and song writer Kate Bush who repurposed the outbuildings to house a dance and recording studio. The current owners have invested heavily to create what exists today which included significant repairs and maintenance to the to the mill, and reconstructing the river banks.
