Georgian house and former mill in the most beautiful setting. Description Mill House is located in a stunning position overlooking the River Box with uninterrupted views surrounding the property.

The Mill itself is a former flour mill, constructed to a high standard with an oak frame and tiled roof.

It has four levels and provides extensive storage areas and a stage level within the roof space. Outside, the setting is exceptional where a private rear terrace over looks the river.

The gardens are laid to lawn, offering a peaceful and secluded outdoor space. The property includes the ‘island’ between the main river channel and the mill chase which is wooded.
