Attractive, period home set within delightful countryside position

Description

Mill House is an attractive period home believed to date from the 18th century, occupying a delightful countryside setting. Set within grounds of approximately 0.8 acres, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and offers characterful family accommodation together with versatile ancillary living space.

Providing an idyllic lifestyle opportunity, the property is equally suited to families and couples seeking a charming rural retreat.

The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into an impressive dining hall, measuring approximately 19ft by 14ft, featuring a fireplace with wood burning stove and exposed beams. From here, the space flows seamlessly into the kitchen/breakfast room, which has been thoughtfully extended by the current owners. The extension introduces a contemporary element while maximising views across the neighbouring farmland and providing an exceptional amount of additional storage. A practical utility room further enhances the functionality of the space, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The living room is equally characterful, featuring a further fireplace with wood-burning stove, exposed beams and timberwork, and a dual-aspect outlook. This room leads through to a conservatory with double doors opening onto the garden. Completing the ground floor is a useful study, ideal for home working and a cloakroom.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, including the principal suite, which benefits from a dressing area and an en suite shower room. The guest bedroom also enjoys en suite facilities, while the remaining two bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Within the grounds is a converted former pool house, now providing superb ancillary accommodation. The space comprises an open-plan living, sleeping and kitchen area together with a shower room. As such, it offers excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or potential income generation, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside
The property is approached via a wooden five-bar gate, which opens onto a long driveway leading to a generous parking area, garaging and a cart lodge. In addition, there is a useful workshop, greenhouse, two sheds and woodstore, providing ample space for garden machinery, tools and general storage.

The grounds are predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by an abundance of mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked planting beds. A central garden pond creates an attractive focal point, while the established gardens provide a wonderful setting for outdoor enjoyment. Altogether, the outside space is a true gardener's delight and perfectly complements the property's peaceful countryside surroundings.
