HISTORY
Operated and inhabited by the same family, the Bradshaws, since 1854, Perio Mill has a fascinating history. The original mill house is thought to date from the 1400s with the current mill itself dating from 1721, after the original was destroyed by fire. Originally making paper, the mill converted to milling grain when the Bradshaws took it over and later purchased it from the Capron Estate. It has been held in the same family ever since. After closure as a mill in the 1950s the mill itself became a store. Taken on by a younger family member, the mill was converted, in 2008, to the fine family home it is today.
THE PROPERTY
Having been carefully and sympathetically restored, Perio Mill is a substantial residence offering high specification accommodation that carefully blends modern fittings with the traditional features of the original structure. The accommodation amounting to some 5,877 sq ft is set over three floors, and offers great versatility with a superb reception hall, three large ground floor reception rooms and a gym. The middle floor offers a superb live-in kitchen and dining room, as well as a sitting room and a snug. There are lovely views over the grounds and along the river. The top floor offers a superb principal suite with bedroom, dressing room, and bathroom. There is a lovely guest suite with balcony, and four further bedrooms and two shower rooms.
Perio also offers superb ancillary accommodation of 1215 sq ft, with an annex, known as The Stables, set across the drive, which offers characterful, independent living, with two double bedrooms with ensuite facilities. The two storey studio / office building, offers superbly appointed accommodation of 1658 sq ft set over two floors.
Oak-framed triple garaging with EV points, and a timber clad traditional workshop / store complete the range of outbuildings.
The grounds really are special at Perio. Formal gardens surround the house with a beautiful mediterranean garden running to the south. Shingled paths wind around to the kitchen garden. Lawns and meadows run further to the south, along both sides of the river. There are maturing hedgerows and a superb variety of trees, providing a haven for birds and other wildlife.
