Upon entering the property, you'll be greeted by a grand and welcoming entrance hall with fireplace, showcasing the home’s exceptional character and original features. From here, the accommodation flows seamlessly, beginning with an impressive drawing room with log burner, perfect for hosting guests or relaxing after a long day. The library offers a more intimate setting, ideal for quiet evenings or as a dedicated workspace. The kitchen/diner is both spacious and inviting, designed to cater to modern living while preserving the historic charm of the property. The kitchen benefits from beautiful granite worktops and built-in appliances including an under-counter fridge, a dishwasher and a Falcon range cooker. Just off the kitchen you'll find a large pantry with space for an American style fridge/freezer as well as a separate utility room with space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer. This home also has a stunning dining room full of character and a lovely conservatory. There's also a boot room with WC and a cellar.

There are two staircases in Mill House. The main staircase comes off the entrance hall and leads you up to the first floor, where you'll find a spacious bedroom with en-suite, two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Stairs then lead to the second floor, where you'll find the luxurious primary bedroom which is nothing short of exceptional and includes a large sitting room, a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom, creating a private sanctuary that combines comfort with elegance. The second staircase comes off the dining room and leads you to the beautiful galleried mezzanine and guest bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a fantastic en-suite. The views over the garden and River Nene are exceptional from this bedroom's Juliet balcony. Stairs from the mezzanine lead up to the second floor which boasts the gym/bedroom 6, a shower room and large storage room, which could be used as a 7th bedroom.

Set on a plot of approximately 4 acres, the property includes stunning private gardens that blend beautifully with the surrounding countryside. The gardens are a haven of tranquillity, enhanced by the River Nene, which meanders through the grounds. Is there anything more peaceful than the sound of running water? This unique riverside setting offers a lifestyle that is both idyllic and adventurous, with opportunities for swimming, fishing, and kayaking or canoeing, all accessible directly from the garden. Both the large patio and spacious terrace which hangs over the River Nene offer the perfect setting for relaxing, entertaining and al-fresco dining. Forming part of the 4 acre plot is a 2 acre paddock, making it ideal for those with equestrian interests or a desire for additional space to enjoy outdoor pursuits. The overall sense of space, privacy and connection to nature is truly unparalleled.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a property that seamlessly combines historic charm, modern convenience and an unrivalled setting. Whether you’re looking for a family home, a countryside retreat, or a riverside haven, Mill House is sure to exceed expectations.
