Wonham Lane, Betchworth

A superbly crafted three-bedroom mews home forming part of a beautifully converted historic water mill, surrounded by stunning countryside and enjoying an idyllic riverside setting on the River Mole in Betchworth, perfectly positioned between Reigate and Dorking. The original mill building dates back to around 1740, although records indicate a mill has occupied the site since the early 14th century. Approximately ten years ago, the building was sympathetically converted into a collection of luxury homes, finished to an exceptional specification throughout.

One of the property's most notable features is its environmentally friendly heating and hot water system, which is powered by water-source heat pumps located within the basement. Drawing energy directly from the mill pond, the system harnesses the movement of the water to provide efficient heating and hot water to the homes within the development. There are many other impressive features throughout the property, and an internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that it has to offer.

Steps lead to an attractive walkway and the front entrance. The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout and begins with a spacious reception hall featuring oak flooring, stairs rising to the first floor, an understairs storage cupboard, and a cloakroom. The living space is the impressive 29ft open-plan kitchen, dining and living room, enjoying a pleasant front aspect and oak flooring throughout. The kitchen is fitted with a range of eye and base-level units, complemented by generous wooden work surfaces and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including an oven and hob. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, together with a comfortable seating area, creating the perfect space for both everyday living and entertaining. The principal bedroom is an impressive 20ft room featuring a Velux skylight and a stylish en-suite shower room. A wooden staircase leads from the hallway to the first-floor landing, which incorporates a useful open area, ideal for use as a study or home office. Bedroom two is a generous double bedroom with a Velux skylight while bedroom three is another spacious double bedroom, enjoying delightful views to the front through a dormer window and benefiting from two eaves storage cupboards. The family bathroom is elegantly fitted with a white suite comprising a freestanding bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin and WC. Additional features include a heated towel rail, part-tiled walls, matching floor tiles, inset lighting and a Velux skylight as well as further eaves storage.

This exceptional home is perfect for purchasers seeking high-quality accommodation in a peaceful countryside setting, without the ongoing maintenance typically associated with larger gardens and grounds.
