For those who love water and a character solid granite home, Steward Mill was built in 1711 as a working mill and then converted into a large family home in 1973. It is an engaging and attractive home with great character and It is double glazed throughout with a brand new slate roof. The ground floor accommodation comprises a bright glazed entrance porch leading into the hallway with a wood burner, there is a kitchen breakfast room with views across the garden, a separate dining room and a large sitting room, with another wood burning stove, that looks to the waterfalls. The first floor has two large bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a very large jacuzzi bath in the centre of the room. There is also access to the patio balcony with views across the surrounding countryside and mill pond. On the second floor there are three further bedrooms, another shower room and access to the large loft space. The land extends to approximately 0.7 acres which comprise a beautiful garden to the rear and side of the property with waterfalls, lawn, landscaped features and a sizeable mill pond and working water wheel. The property is centrally heated by an air source heat pump and has PV panels which offset the running costs of the pump. There is parking for plenty of cars and and a good sized double garage with a big storage loft above. The property is comfortable and warm but a little dated in some respects with a new kitchen and bathrooms likely to be desirable. Fowlers very strongly recommend viewing this property to appreciate the considerable appeal it has to offer.
