The Mill House is an impressive Grade II listed detached former mill set within about 1.06 acres of mainly walled, mature gardens. The house offers generous lateral accommodation across three floors totalling approximately 4,129 sq ft, with seven double bedrooms, four reception rooms, a partly vaulted garden room and principal bedroom views over the adjacent mill pond. A self-contained annexe and double garage add flexibility for guests, staff or rental income. The property is offered chain free.
This is a historic, characterful home with many period features including exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and timber casement windows, combined with practical fittings such as a fitted kitchen, utility, oil-fired boiler and underfloor heating. The large gravelled parking area, gated driveway and private walled gardens with specimen trees, greenhouse, formal fruit and vegetable plots and fountain create a secluded village retreat.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and change of use. There is a recorded high flood risk for the location, the EPC is rated E and heating is oil-fuelled, which may affect running costs and mortgage/insurance terms. Council tax is described as very expensive. These factors are important for long-term ownership costs and any planned works.
For a buyer wanting a rare, substantial village property with significant outside space and an annexe, the Mill House presents strong character and long-term potential. Those seeking a low-maintenance or readily modernisable home should assess listing constraints, flood history and energy performance before proceeding.
