Mill Hill, Weston Colville

An attractive detached, period cottage, set on the brow of Mill Hill, adjacent to the village windmill. The property benefits from lots of character features, and has a south westerly facing garden and off road parking.

Mill Cottage, is believed to date back to the 1800's and was sympathetically extended and partially rebuilt in the 1990's by the current owner. The property retains lots of characterful features and provides a generous 1352 sqft (125 sqm) of accommodation.

The cottage is bright and spacious, providing versatile accommodation over two levels with two staircases at either end of the building. Currently the owner uses the family room on the ground floor as a bedroom and on the first floor there is a sitting room, which with the addition of a partition wall, would equally make a lovely bedroom.

Approached over a gravel driveway the front door is set beneath a small canopy which offers protection from the elements as you go in. There is a reception area with a built in storage cupboard and to the front of the building is a generous, dual aspect sitting room with a staircase rising to the first floor, exposed beams and an attractive red brick fireplace inset with a log burner. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets set above and below the working surfaces and there is a built in double oven and hob, a beautiful brick floor, exposed timbers and space for an undercounter fridge. The kitchen opens to the family room, which is currently used as a bedroom, there is a door out to the garden and a staricase leading up to a generous, dual aspect, first floor bedroom. At the far end of the ground floor is a bathroom with a bath with shower over, w.c. and handbasin. There is also a cupboard that houses the washing machine.

A second staricase from the front, ground floor reception room, leads to a further sitting room which has exposed beams and two windows providing lots of natural light. This room could easily have a partition wall installed to provide a further bedroom if preferred. There is a bathroom on this level fitted with a bath, w.c. and hand basin and a second double bedroom to the rear with a built in cupboard and views over the rear garden.

Outside the rear garden enjoys a sunny south westerly aspect and is laid to lawn with shrub borders, a greenhouse and a shed.
