The stately home, which is on the market for £2m, features an eye-catching, hand-made circular kitchen with a spiral staircase
The 700-year-old converted sawmill has been brought into the 21st century after a decade of renovations by its current owner
This sprawling study – featuring a hand-made wooden desk, leather sofa and coffee table – is just one of 10 rooms in the home
The spiral staircase leads into one of the property’s two living rooms, which is connected to the kitchen via a stone archway
Approached by a gravel drive, the converted mill has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, two reception rooms and comes with 1.8 acres of land
The owners opted for a minimal theme in their master bedroom – decorating it with a huge king-sized bed and suede sofa

Approached by a gravel drive, the four-bedded contemporary home also features four bathrooms and two reception rooms and comes with 1.8 acres of land.
The property, which is located between Stow on the Wold and Upper Oddington, is made of stone, with the floor fashioned from limestone.
Leigh Glazebrook, partner at estate agent Knight Frank, said: ‘This is a unique, one in a million property. It has been converted from a mill into a home by the present owner, a businessman, since he bought it in 2009.

Mr Glazebrook added: ‘Millway Tower is set in beautiful grounds offering fantastic views and the village of Stow on the Wold with all its amenities is close by’. Pictured: An aerial shot of the stately home
‘There was only a mill to start with which I do not believe had been used for this purpose for many years. The vendor built the extension, turning a historic building into a contemporary home.
‘The hand made circular kitchen, which has designed to fit the shape of the mill, is quite special.
