Description
Mill Farmhouse is a stunning, detached Victorian home which is immaculately presented throughout. Thought to date back to the mid 1800's and formerly part of the Kitley Estate, the flexible accommodation is arranged over three floors. From the moment you step into the beautiful stone porch, you are greeted with charm and elegance which continues throughout. Typical of its period, the property benefits from generously proportioned rooms with high ceilings, large windows, window seats, and internal shutters. The beautiful flagstone floor leads from the entrance hall through the majority of the ground floor, through two of the three reception rooms. The fabulous drawing room is a beautiful, south facing, room with feature fireplace and, like the study, is dual aspect creating a wonderful feeling of space and light. The dining room with feature wood burner is the perfect place for entertaining and there is also a convenient cloakroom and access to the cellar on the ground floor. The well equipped bespoke kitchen / breakfast room is integrated with a number of appliances including a Miele fridge/freezer and Britannia range with 6 burner gas hob with space for a dishwasher. There is also a fabulous Victorian water pump dating back to 1849 as well as access to outside. From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor landing which leads the beautiful principal bedroom and a further three double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a dressing room. There are two, well-appointed family bathrooms on this floor. The second floor offers a fabulous, flexible area which comprises a generous family room as well as a double bedroom and a bathroom.
Outside, the house is approached via a private road which leads to the sweeping drive. The house is surrounded by mature, landscaped gardens with a range of shrubs and trees. Largely south facing, there are a number of terraces and seating areas perfect for al fresco dining. Beyond the formal garden, the grounds extend to just under 4 acres and include an orchard and paddock.
