Old Mill House is a wonderful, character home situated on a fabulous two acre plot within easy reach of local transport links. We believe this spacious property will appeal to buyers looking for a ‘forever’ home in a fantastic semi-rural position. The property can be accessed from the front and side with both having plenty of space to hang coats and store shoes and boots. A wood burning stove provides the perfect focal point for the bay fronted, double aspect sitting room. The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned at the rear and has a range of storage cupboards and space for a large table and chairs. There is an AGA and a large walk-in pantry. It is complemented by a utility room and there is a rear lobby with a door to the courtyard outside and stairs rising the first floor. There are three good sized reception rooms which provide adaptable family living areas. A shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor, the bay fronted master bedroom boasts a dressing room which could easily be adapted to create an ensuite bathroom. There are four additional double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes plus a smaller nursery/storage room. The bedrooms are serviced by two spacious bathrooms. There are also stairs rising to the loft which could be converted to create another bedroom and bathroom (STPP). A cellar completes the accommodation.

Outside, to the front there is a sweeping in and out driveway and vast area of lawn with space to erect a garage or car port. To the side of the property there is a large bike storage adjoining the house by the storm porch. At the rear, a courtyard garden with a well abuts the property. The large outbuilding to the rear of the property provides ample storage for bikes and garden equipment, the outbuilding could be converted (STPP); adjoining the outbuilding is a pergola with mature vines providing shade for the south west facing terrace. The private gardens are screened by mature hedges and trees. There is an area of woodland, an orchard and a paddock with the added bonus of a swimming pool, the plot totals approximately 2 acres.
