Full Details

Set in a stunning south facing elevated position with large gardens and mature trees, an archetypal 4 bedroom detached double fronted thatched house with a large detached studio and planning permission for a garage, approached via a graveled entrance with plentiful parking.

Mill House is approached through a timber gate via a gravel drive which leads onto a graveled parking area adjacent to the large detached studio. Access to the main house is past the studio along the garden path to the front door. The front door leads into the front hall immediately to the left is the dining room, to the right of the hall is the sitting room with a wood burning stove. Through the hall is the kitchen, which has ample fitted units, space for a family sized kitchen table, space for a washing machine, fridge/freezer and has an integral chest height oven. Through the kitchen is a utility room and a WC. There is a cellar which is accessed via stairs leading from the hall. The first floor has 3 double bedrooms and a single bedroom, a family bathroom and an additional WC with washbasin.

Opposite the house is the studio which was created by the current owners, this has electricity with plumbing ready to be installed for a shower and WC. Planning permission has been granted to turn the studio into a separate full dwelling. There is also planning permission for a garage.

The house sits in an elevated position with well-designed mature mixed gardens which fall gently away from the house and then are tiered. The gardens consist of lawns, flower beds, borders and a wooded area of mature trees which lies to the south easterly edge of the garden. The gardens are south facing and benefit from morning and daytime sun. The evening sun traps are of particular note.
