Description: Believed to date from the 1700's this former silk mill was, in addition to the adjacent properties within the Rank, converted to provide residential accommodation. This property has been the subject of extensive work over the last 16 years including re-modelling to create a comprehensively fitted kitchen with polished granite work surfaces and a large range cooker adjacent to the dining room and separate utility with WC. The original sitting room has a beautiful inglenook fireplace with a large bressummer beam and a Quebb wood burning stove, with hob providing heat and a focal point to the room. To the first floor is a principal bedroom with an elegant en-suite bathroom, a further double bedroom and shower room to the second floor and to the third floor an attic bedroom which would take a double bed. The property has all new double-glazed period style windows throughout which were installed approximately a year ago and the roof to the kitchen and utility was also replaced within the last year. Heating is provided via an external oil-fired boiler linked to a pressurised hot water cylinder.
