Description
Uniquely positioned in open countryside, just ½ mile South of the popular rural village of Everdon, Snorscomb Mill is approached via a single track gated road with unspoilt and far-reaching views. On arrival a single five bar gate opens to a large gravel parking area with access to the main house annexe and detached garage.
This 19th century mill been meticulously refurbished to a high standard retaining all the period charm on the outside whilst offering modern low-energy eco-living on the inside. The mill still extracts energy from the stream to heat the house via a ground source heat pump. The mill is today a stunning family house with beautiful reception rooms, a wonderful open plan kitchen / family room and ample bedrooms, most with en suite bathrooms.
Built of stone under a slate roof, Snorscomb Mill is light and spacious with views across the gardens from all principal rooms. Particular features include a beautiful handmade kitchen by Grand Union Designs and family room, main sitting room with orangery and first floor media room. Attention to detail and quality, including oak staircase, underfloor heating to reception rooms and kitchens, high specification internal insulation to all external walls, pressurised water systems, bifold and sliding doors.
In addition, on the first and second floors the principal bedroom and guest suite have unrestricted countryside views and private ‘ski chalet type’ balconies.
There is a self-contained, one bedroom annexe with separate kitchen and underfloor heating. Above the garage is a studio with an en suite shower room that could form an eighth bedroom.
The gardens are wonderful and totally private with many features. The vendors have spent time redesigning and landscaping the gardens to create features in keeping with the property whilst allowing for peaceful moments. From swimming in the natural pond to enjoying the sun on the large terrace that extends from the orangery and the kitchen. The gardens include a wooded area with many trees including, Ask, Oak, Rowan, Birch. The woodland has been opened up to create more open space and encourage the lawn and wild flowers beneath. Foot bridges and sensible landscaping join the separate parts of the garden to provide many locations for quiet compilation or entertaining any time of the day or evening.
Location
Once a medieval village, Snorscomb, meaning a ‘many toothed valley’, is mentioned in the Doomsday book. The land was enclosed by the Knightley family of Fawsley in 1508 and the village reduced to just the mill, a cottage and a farmhouse, which is how it is today.
Everdon is a popular rural village in mid Northamptonshire amidst unspoilt rolling countryside. The village has a beautiful church, village hall and plans for a new community pub (at time of print, February 2023). Local late night shops can be found in Weedon (4 miles) with more substantial facilities in both Daventry (6 miles) and Towcester (10 miles).
Northampton (13 miles) , Banbury (18.5 miles), Rugby (15 miles) and Milton Keynes (24 miles) are regional centres and provide train services to London and the North.
The motorway network can be joined via junction 16 of the M1 motorway (7 miles) and junction 11 of the M40 motorway (17 miles).
State primary schools can be found at Newnham, Badby and Weedon with secondary schools in Daventry and Towcester. There is a wide range of private schools in the locality including Maidford, Bilton Grange at Dunchurch, Winchester House at Brackley, Spratton, Maidwell, Rugby, Stowe, Bloxham, Tudor Hall at Banbury, Pitsford, Oundle, Northampton High School for Girls, Uppingham, Oakham and Kimbolton.
Leisure facilities include local walks; horse riding with several local riding schools; golf at Staverton, Farthingstone and Chapel Brampton; theatre in Stratford- upon-Avon and Northampton; motor-racing at Silverstone; rugby at Northampton; flying at Sywell; sailing at Pitsford or Draycote Water; horse-racing at Warwick and Stratford-upon-Avon.
