THIS charming, detached original Mill House is believed to date back to the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. It had been a working mill until after the Second World War, with the house having been converted and extended in 1977.

The mill stream runs through the gardens and is also a feature inside the house, with an armoured glass-plated vantage point in the inner lobby.

With many character features such as exposed timbers, combined with the modern benefits of oil-fired central heating, the ground floor comprises a reception hall with exposed stone features and oak flooring, a cloakroom/WC, a sitting room with oak flooring, a lounge with an inglenook fireplace and exposed polished floorboards, ceiling timbers and a panelled door opening into the sun lounge, which also has exposed floorboards.

The sun lounge has sliding glass doors leading to the conservatory with a pleasant riverside position overlooking the gardens.

An inner lobby has an armoured glass panel looking down to the mill leet below and an archway to the kitchen/breakfast room with a pantry.

A rear porch opens into the utility/cloakroom/ WC.

The first floor landing has doors leading to the family bathroom and four bedrooms, three with vanity wash hand basins, and two with built-in wardrobes.

The property is approached via double wrought iron gates, opening onto a gravelled driveway with ample parking for several vehicles.

To the side is stone walling and access down to the mill stream with two small stone bridges.

There is a detached double garage with metal up and over doors, power and lighting. The private gardens to the back are landscaped with crazy paved patio areas, lawns, a bridge going over the mill leet with a small waterfall and working eel trap.
