Velvet Mill

Velvet Mill is the second phase in the regeneration of the Grade II* Listed Lister Mills. Designed by David Morley Architects, the largest listed building in Bradford has been lovingly restored into 190 new homes and ground floor commercial spaces.

Bursting with original features, Velvet Mill combines the best of the old with the best of the new, and the new dramatic curved rooftop apartments will be a fine example of how combining old and new architecture can transform an already magnificent building into a modern day classic.

Velvet Mill has been carefully restored to make the most of the original features; high vaulted ceilings, exposed brickwork, large windows and a stunning central atrium at the entrance.
Residents can make the most of the private courtyard or the beautiful Listers Park is just around the corner and with the Yorkshire Dales a short drive away, the great outdoors isn't hard to find.

Once the world's largest silk mill, Lister Mills is a stunning collection of Grade II* Listed mills and warehouses which dominate the Bradford skyline. When built, The Times proclaimed that the Mills were as ''breath-taking as Versailles'' - to this day it still manages to take your breath away.

The regeneration of Lister Mills will create new homes, offices, retail and leisure space. Silk Warehouse which was completed in 2006 has created 131 new homes and the lower ground floor is home to Mind the Gap, a disabled performing arts charity, and Manningham Mills Community Centre which has its very own cafe; we would strongly recommend a visit!

Velvet Mill, Lister Mills is situated on Lillycroft road, a busy hub of the Manningham community, with plenty of eateries, cafes and local amenities.
Lister Mills is approximately 1.5 miles from Bradford city centre, served by regular bus services and a short walk from Frizinghall train station with direct links to Bradford and Leeds.
