Argos Hill, Mayfield, TN20

Windmill cottage forms a deceptively large family home with flexible accommodation arranged over three floors.  The house is exceptionally well maintained with every window having been replaced over the last five to ten years, plus modern kitchen and bathroom suites added, and stylish décor.  A new boiler was installed approximately two years ago and every light has been refitted with an LED fitting.

The property originates from the 19th century, and still has various feature fireplaces and wooden flooring features throughout the house.  The ground floor comprises an original front porch and reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor and an understairs shower room. 

The sitting room is a wonderful dual aspect room with an open fireplace, whilst adjacent is a stunning open plan dining/family room with a seating area to one end with doors and views up the garden, and fireplaces along two walls. 

The kitchen/breakfast room is another dual aspect room, with an array of cream units and integrated appliances, sink and cooker, space for a table and chairs, plus a door to the utility room, housing more appliances and a further door to the outside.

Off the kitchen is a wonderful, vaulted garden room accessing the sheltered paved patio on the south-west corner of the house and looking up the garden.

The first floor comprises an open landing with access to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom, with the huge main bedroom also enjoying a dressing area and an en-suite.

The second floor provides two more double bedrooms and an open landing, currently used as a gym area, and has some of the best views on offer. It is considered that this space could be self-contained if required.

Externally, one approaches the property off Windmill Lane, via double gates to an attractive tree lined driveway, with ample turning, parking and access to a detached triple garage with electric up and over doors, and log store. There is an electric car charging point in the garage.

There is a predominately level and lawned area of garden at the front, with ample space for kids to play, with a further fence enclosed, more formal garden area between the garage and the house. Around the house are various paved seating areas and pathways with the main seating area by the garden room and dining room enjoying a sheltered south-westerly facing patio and views up the garden.

The main area of garden is to the West of the house, mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with trees and shrubs, with a seating area enjoying the view and a further bench seat at the top of the garden enjoying panoramic views.

The property is situated in the hamlet of Argos Hill, 1 1/2 miles or so from Mayfield High Street, with easy access to footpaths and bridleways, linking to other footpaths and the various lanes around.
