In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, sugar, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

In a separate bowl, mix the warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Add the warm milk, yeast mixture, and softened butter to the flour mixture. Stir until it forms a rough dough.

Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Punch down the risen dough and turn it onto a floured surface. Shape it into a rectangle and roll it tightly from the shorter side, pinching the seams to seal.

Place the rolled dough in a greased loaf pan. Cover it again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes until it doubles in size.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Once the dough has risen, bake it for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Remove the loaf from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack. Slice and serve!
