Description An incredible opportunity to purchase a Grade II listed early 19th Century mill building. With a history of milling on the site stretching back to the medieval period, the property has been lovingly restored over the last twenty years and is offered to market for the first time as a residential property.
1 Upon entering the property from the road through the glazed timber door you are greeted with the most wonderful double-height space. Currently used as a dining room, a winding hand-built wooden staircase provides access to the galleried landing on the upper floors. A slate floor runs throughout the ground floor, leading you through part-glazed double doors into the kitchen area.
2 Benefitting from dual aspect windows with secondary glazing, the kitchen has been entirely hand-built by the current owners and is completely bespoke. A gas-fired Rangemaster stove sits beneath an integrated extractor unit, alongside a belfast sink and a range of solid Red American Oak units with granite worksurfaces. At the heart of the kitchen is a useful island unit with storage, power sockets and a walnut worktop. The kitchen area is open to a charming sitting room enjoying views out to the gardens. A wood-burning stove sits atop one of the old mill stones providing a lovely nod to the history. Completing the ground floor accommodation in the main house is a downstairs WC with wash-hand basin, and a utility room leading out to a covered seating area with views of the leat.
3 Ascending the solid oak staircase to the first floor you have the chance to appreciate the views from the large window flooding the space with light, as well as the exquisite craftsmanship employed in the creation of the staircase. A doorway leads through to an inner landing from which there is access to two of the bedrooms, as well as the master bedroom. With a dual-aspect, and enjoying views over the leat and gardens beyond, the master bedroom enjoys built in wardrobes and a generous en-suite shower-room with WC and basin. The family bathroom has an opulent feel with large slate tiles and a free-standing claw-foot roll-top bath. Exposed beams and original timbers have been carefully restored and run through the accommodation. Underfloor heating provides an extra touch of luxury to the ground and first floors.
4 At the head of staircase on the second floor parts of the original hoist works from the property's previous life are still in evidence, and provide a lovely feature. At this level is a further bedroom that could also serve as home-office, and the main sitting room. A glorious space with windows on the three principal elevations bathing the room in sunlight, this room provides an incredible entertaining space. Of particular note are the stunning king post trusses and inglenook fireplace with gas-fired stove. The exposed trusses serve to increase the spacious feel of the room, and really highlight the incredible amount of work that has gone into the restoration.
5 The granary wing is currently accessed both from the courtyard at the rear of the proper, as well as from the first floor landing of the main house. Having previously been used as a workshop, planning permission has been granted for conversion of the space into two self-contained apartments; a studio flat to the ground floor and a one bedroom apartment with office space on the first floor. The conversion, once carried out, would provide useful additional accommodation or a source of income. Alternatively, and subject to the necessary consents, the space could be re-incorporated into the main property to form a wonderful additional reception room or cinema room, or to create a work-from-home space if required.
6 From the road the property is accessed through a five bar timber gate leading to a generous gravelled parking area. Steps lead to an a covered seating area, the ideal spot to enjoy the flowing leat that once powered the mill, as well as providing access to the large basement storage area. Further steps lead up to a pleasant patio area nestled into the mature gardens.
