**WATCH THE VIRTUAL TOUR**

Millmead is a breathtakingly attractive home. From humble origins, this former farm cottage has transformed into a the romantically inspired country home we see today. With visual highlights including the wisteria clad elevations and a highly unusual turret, this generously proportioned home demands to be looked at in more detail, and offers flexible living space and pleasing proportions. The four reception rooms and stunning Clive Christian kitchen are just the start. There are also five bedrooms, the principal bedroom has its own luxurious en-suite bathroom and a spiral staircase within the turret leading downstairs. There are an array of character features including many natural artisanal materials including exposed joinery and quarry tiles giving a very arts and craft feel, and these sit well with the more creature comforts befitting of a house of this stature. Outside, the property sits at the eastern edge of the plot which is approaching three quarters of an acre and includes a swimming pool, extensive parking and two separate detached garages. 

In all then, a highly unique "forever home", tucked away on a small private lane running alongside the River Arun, and viewings are very strongly recommended with the vendors sole agents, Courtney Green.

OUTSIDE

The property sits in the top corner of a plot which extends to just under 3/4 of an acre.  The gardens are neatly arranged which include a large formal lawn which extends to the North side of the house which drops drawn past large flower beds and toward the Swimming Pool.  

There are lovely areas on the rear boundary to be discovered in amongst the large shrubs and tall conifers, and a stone pathway leads past an octagonal Summer House with Cedar shingle roof and gravelled seating area.  Rising up to the terrace with its, large stone slabs providing a lovely protective outside area with the wisteria, clematis and a lovely marble boss depicting a boy playing a wind instrument as a backdrop.  There are outside lights at this point and further stone paving stones lead around the turret to a useful partly covered area ideal for barbequing with a quarry tiled plinth, useful wood store and with wrought iron balustrade and railings. 

Steps lead down to an area where there is a hot tub and a vegetable garden and fruit cages and lead around to the rear where there is a timber shed, the oil storage tank, the oil fired boiler providing heating and hot water with a useful cupboard adjacent, and the stone pathway leads gently out towards the back of the sun room with a pathway leading beyond and behind, back around to the front.  The whole garden is enclosed by natural screening with hedgerows to the front and the house as previously mentioned is clad with a very established old wisteria offering it's resplendent display during warmer months.  There is a generous block paved parking area in front of the property with a five bar gate.

There are Two Detached Garages, one situated at the top by the property, the other towards the end of the garden, both have Cedar shingle roofing with light and power and electric remote controlled up and over doors.
