There is nothing ordinary about Saham Mill. Through a wide and welcoming reception hall you will be amazed the moment you step into this family home with a circular drawing room boasting wood burning stove and exposed beams opening onto the curved living room that enjoys views over the landscaped garden and a spacious kitchen/dining room. The mill dates back to the 1800's. It was converted to a private residence in the 1900's with the likes of the Twinings family and Shakin' Stevens making it their home over the years as informed by the vendor.
To the front of the property is a sweeping gravel driveway offering ample parking and leads to the independent annexe/holiday cottage with access to the rear garden at both sides. The rear garden offers a terraced area for alfresco dining with steps leading down to the landscaped garden with water feature and flanked by mature trees.
