Ground Floor

Entering through the sunroom, a charming feature of this property, you are greeted by a bright, versatile space with a wooden frame and Velux windows in the roof. This room takes full advantage of the gardens and immediately sets the tone for the character and warmth found throughout the home.

The hallway provides access to the living room, a well-proportioned space with a feature inglenook fireplace, wood-burning stove set on a stone hearth, exposed ceiling timbers, and a window overlooking the garden. Back through the hallway and down a step is an area that could be utilised as private guest accommodation. This section offers two double bedrooms, built-in storage in the hallway, and a shower room complete with a vanity wash hand basin, WC, and corner shower. Previously run as a successful B&B, this space offers excellent income potential. Alternatively, it provides versatile accommodation, perfectly suited as bedrooms or, as currently used, one room functioning as a studio, hobby, or office space.

First Floor

Moving up to the first floor, you will find a fantastic, spacious, and bright open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room, benefiting from triple-aspect windows overlooking the open countryside. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall and base units, a central island, a large range cooker, and space for a sizable fridge/freezer. Character features continue with exposed floor timbers, and the room also includes a lovely family area, providing ample space for a large dining table and chairs—perfect for entertaining. From here, a landing leads to the family bathroom, complete with a vanity wash hand basin, panelled bath with shower over, and WC. Also on this floor is the third bedroom, currently used as a study, and adjacent to it, the fourth bedroom with a window overlooking the garden.

Second Floor

Moving up to the second floor, an impressive master suite awaits, offering a generously sized bedroom area with built-in wardrobes. This leads through to a flexible space, ideal as a dressing room or reading nook, before continuing into a deluxe en-suite fitted with a white suite comprising a WC, vanity wash hand basin, and corner shower cubicle. This elevated position also enjoys some of the finest views over the surrounding landscape.

Attached Store Room

To the left of the property is the old bakehouse with original bread oven and featuring a wooden door and window. While currently a practical space for garden storage, it also offers significant potential for conversion, should additional living accommodation be required.

Detached Garage/Studio

A large garage and fantastic workshop offer ample space for parking up to three cars, with the workshop located at the rear. It features a remote control roller shutter garage door, pedestrian door, power, and lighting. Adjacent to this is a smaller woodshop/workshop. Accessed via an external staircase, the first floor provides a generous studio space with a built-in storage area at the far end. This versatile space offers significant potential for further conversion, subject to the necessary consents, allowing it to be adapted into additional accommodation to suit the buyer’s requirements.

Garden

A generous garden backs onto open countryside, offering a wonderful sense of space and privacy. The grounds have been thoughtfully divided by mature hedging to create interest and defined areas, complemented by perimeter stone walls, fencing, and additional established hedging. The garden features a variety of mature shrubs and trees, fruit trees, space for productive vegetable beds, and a good expanse of level lawn. There are also patio and gravel areas, perfect for outdoor seating and entertaining, as well as cleverly hidden spaces providing useful storage or amenity areas. Access to the property from the driveway is through a stone arch, with paved pathway leading to the home. This area has recently been securely fenced, creating a safe and dog-friendly environment.

Parking

Good-sized tarmacadam parking areas provide ample space for vehicles and are enclosed by mature hedging and a wooden gate.

Agents Note

We have been advised that, in the past, the Mill experienced water ingress on two occasions in the lower hallway on the ground floor. Speaking with the current occupiers, precautions have been implemented both prior to and during their ownership to prevent any recurrence. The owners have confirmed that the guttering has been redirected and a water pump installed to manage heavy rainfall, and no further ingress has occurred since their ownership.
