'The Mill House' is a substantial country home covering nearly 4000 sq ft (371 sq m) on approximately 1/2 acre, surrounded by rolling countryside with spectacular views from every angle.

All four reception rooms can be found from here and via the associated inner halls. The beating heart of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room featuring stunning granite work surfaces complemented by high quality cabinetry and an AGA range cooker whilst a 'walk in' pantry completes the dream kitchen! A large utility room lies to the rear of the house with a WC. A sauna, separate WC and a bathroom concludes the vast ground floor. An attractive staircase rises from the reception hall to first floor with a separate staircase leading from the sitting room to the bedroom in the 'Annexe Wing'. All five bedrooms are superb double rooms with magnificent rural vistas from each room. The impressive 'Master Suite' boasts a luxurious en-suite and a dressing room. A large balcony is accessed from the landing and provides the perfect vantage point to enjoy the country views that extend as far as the coast and even France on a clear day. Beautiful gardens encompass the property with mature trees, pond and a paved terrace on the southern side which has been landscaped with entertaining in mind whilst the children have the run of the lawn areas. The house is completely enclosed with a walled, pillared entrance to the rear via electric gates that open onto a large driveway, providing extensive off-road parking. A large garage with power is found at the top of the plot and fronts onto Ivy Cottage Lane. The Mill House is a truly unique home which has been enjoyed by the current owners for nearly 15 years. The house has been significantly improved and sympathetically modernised during their tenure, with the addition of double glazed windows and the connection to mains gas being just a couple of the major improvements.
