HISTORIC FARNINGHAM MILL ESTATE - GUIDE PRICE £750,000

Description - It is always a pleasure to be able to present a property which is absolutely unique in every way. Forming one of three cottages on the site of the original Farningham Mill Estate and sitting back from the road, largely on an island formed by the river and the mill stream, the grounds extend to approximately 3 acres. The Farningham Mill was first recorded in the Doomsday book in 1070. Approached through automatic oak gates and down a gravelled drive onto the parking area. The cottage offers flexible family accommodation and is presented to a high specification throughout which can only be fully appreciated by internal viewing. The cottage has a small private courtyard garden providing a perfect setting for outdoor entertaining. Full access to the beautiful grounds all of which have been meticulously designed. Old walls and paths have been painstaking repaired and new ones have been designed to match the setting.
