A tranquil Grade II listed Water Mill, offering a real sense of the countryside, yet located within a mile of the City Centre.
Description
Barnes Mill is a beautifully converted Mill enjoying an exceptional riverside setting located at the end of a quiet no through road. The unique watermill and Mill House are available on separate titles.
Barnes Mill offers almost 4,500 sq ft of light and airy accommodation, with well-proportioned, square rooms all immaculately presented with an abundance of charm and character throughout. Set across three floors, the current owners of 25 years, have created a wonderful and flexible home. To the ground floor the spacious entrance hall enjoys a most impressive glass enclosed area boasting views over the mill race & former water wheel and offers access to a shower room, utility room & a charming kitchen/breakfast room in which the mill workings have been retained, featuring the mill spur wheel & large timbers. The kitchen area features a range of fitted units, butler sink, AGA, central island, integrated appliances and a pantry. This unusual and characterful kitchen/living area offers access via double doors onto an idyllic terrace with a west facing seating area which enjoys the most enviable views of the surrounding water and gardens. To the first floor there is a magnificent, dual aspect reception room offering stunning front and rear, easterly & westerly views, comprising a significant living area with impressive brick inglenook fireplace and an extensive study enjoying easterly views. A guest/bedroom two with a lovely en suite & further family room/2nd study if required.
