The Property
Mill House Barn dates back to the 1700's and originally belonged to the neighbouring property 'Mill House'. The barns were converted into accommodation in 1990's and since then has provided an excellent setting for a family home. The accommodation is truly adaptable and offers the potential for dual occupancy.
One can enter the barn by the entrance hallway or via the boot room which leads further into the barn. On the ground floor you will find two extremely well proportioned reception rooms, one with a feature fireplace and inset stove with the other having the staircase to the first floor. The Aga kitchen is open plan to the family room and features a farmhouse style kitchen with pamment floors, built in appliances and a striking red four oven, economy 7 Aga. Back into the hallway you will find two double bedrooms (one en-suite), cloakroom and boiler room. On the first floor are two double bedrooms, with an en-suite shower to the master. The landing is also set up as a purpose made study. The attached annexe is accessed by an interconnecting door and comprises a kitchen, bathroom, sitting room and bedroom. The annexe is currently let on a tenancy but could be used as a workspace, studio or further accommodation to complement the main barn. The rent equates to £400 per calendar month.
Outside
A five bar gate opens out into the driveway and parking area, proceeding up to the double garage. The driveway is gravelled and provides ample parking and turning space. The front gardens are laid to lawn and surround a natural pond. A small courtyard garden is situated between the main barn and annexe wing. At the rear of the property you will find a patio area, further lawns, shed & summerhouse with paddock area beyond. The gardens extend to just under ¾ of an acre (sts).
