This distinctive stone-built former mill offers two-bedroom detached living with strong character and modern energy upgrades. Owned solar panels, a ground-source heat pump and underfloor heating give genuinely low running costs and eco credentials. The property is offered chain-free and has full planning permission (Ref: 24/00305/FUL) for a two-storey side extension to add another reception and bedroom — clear potential to increase space and value.
Internally the layout suits a downsizer or small family who value character: exposed beams, a circular cottage-style kitchen and an elevated master balcony are standout features. The footprint is modest for the plot, with one bathroom only, so buyers wanting more internal rooms should factor in the approved extension or further renovation.
Externally the large driveway, electric gated access and double garage provide strong parking and storage, and the mature, private gardens offer plenty of outdoor space. The site sits on a main road so occasional traffic noise is possible; the substantial boundary wall and gated entrance help with privacy and security.
Important practical points: the owned solar array has an outstanding repayment of approximately £1,200, and local recorded crime levels are high — buyers should satisfy themselves on security and insurance. There is no flood risk and broadband/mobile signals are good, making the house practical for modern living.
